Kykkos Monastery.

 

You only have to wear the robes if you turn up wearing shorts.

Zone Outing in Cyprus.

 

On Monday the 8th. November we visited the Kykkos Monastery in the Troodos Mountains.The monastery was built around the end of the 11th. century by the Byzantine Emperor Alexis Komnenus.It is 1318 metres high in the north west of Troodos. It was a wonderful day out because we were with people that we truly love and who mean so much to us.

Elder Wu.

 

Such courage to bear testimony in a new tongue. How blessed we are to have such souls in the Greece Athens Mission.

Eldet Yates.

 

Another great testimony in Greek, so impressive.

Happy are We !

 

Mars Hill.

 

Powerful testimonies borne by powerful people. Sister Simmons and Sister Braaksma will be companions for this transfer and Elders Stulen and Wu are also companions. Elder Yates and Sister Gallagher will meet up with their companions in Cyprus on Thursday.

A Great Team !

Mars Hill 3rd November 2010.

 

A sweet and peaceful feeling was felt today on Mars Hill. You can see that we read Acts 17 in Greek. We are always so impressed with those who read and how good their accents are. As we made our way down some contacting was done and pass along cards were handed out.

Yummy!

 

Orientation to the Greece Athens Mission.

 

We spent the morning at the Mission Home in an Orientation Meeting and then on to Souvlaki Kifissia. Sitting next to Elder Yates I reminisced on treats I missed from Scotland, two of those being tattie scones and plain bread. We then tucked into our delicious Greek salad and all was well.
