Leipzig Trip




Hello Everyone!!
So...We have just finished our third day away from home. I, personally am feeling a little homesick but I love it here! It's beautiful and there is so much to learn and explore.
This morning we woke up around nine, which is SUPER early, and headed down to a contenental breakfast. It was VERY GOOD. Different, but good. After breakfast we met our tour guide who showed us around Nuremburg. I was fasinated by learning that the buildings we saw were once filled with Nazi's listening to Hitlers preaching. One area we went to reminded me of an EXTRA large football stadium with a long road in front of it. Nazi's used to march the road and tons of people would gather there, once again, to hear Hitler speak. I can't describe how beautiful it is here. But I won't have to because Roy is about to download some pictures!! (:
Tonight we attended an international baptist church. We were accompanied by 2 other choirs, the choir of the church and a military choir. The service lasted about 2.5 hours and was really hot! The other 2 choirs went before us, but when we sang I believe we moved them with our variety of songs. You could tell by the smiles, tears, and standing ovation. and i'm not gunna lie...our singing gave me chill bumps.

Tomorrow we are leaving at nine for Prague, once again thats SO EARLY, but i'm excited. For me this means lots of shopping...and wonderful singing of course (:
I speak for everyone when I say I love you all and miss you like crazy! Just because this is amazing doesn't mean we are not praying and thinking of yall. Contine to pray for the Suttles family and we will see you soon.
Love,
Mary Brantley
