We are so excited to be in Greece after months of planning! Can't wait to see what God has in store.  We had a wonderful dinner of some Greek classics and gelato! 

We were blessed to be able to visit three islands, Hydra, Poros and Aegina. Such a wonderful time to spend together and see God's beauty! 

Aegina Island 

We stopped at the Isthmus Canal on our way to Corinth. The first attempt to make the Canal was the 7th century BC, but was completed in 1830. It's is 3.9 miles long.

We spent time in Ancient Corinth, and a local friend and missionary joined us and shared more about the history of Corinth and the Apostle Paul. We read from Acts 18.

Acts of the Apostles 18:9-10 NLT

Worship with the awesome church, Kypseli Evangelical. They have outgrown this space (they have 2 services in greek and 1 in Farsi) and are working on a new, bigger space. It was so fun to join them and then share some desserts after! 

Our team split and we served at Helenic Ministries with 2 of their Ministries: Evripidpu which serves many people a hot meal, some kids programs and the gospel. And Good Samaritan which serves in such a holistic manner. They serve the refugee population by providing, clothes, medical, language, laundry and most importantly the Gospel. 

We left Athens and headed to Meteora and Unesco World Heritage Site that houses 6 Greek Orthodox Churches. It was nice to spend time in prayer and be quiet with the Lord. 

We stopped in Veria, and got to see where Paul preached, Acts 17: 10-15.
