I took Katka and Jana to Youth Praha last week. I didn't know if that was good... or bad. I really feel like Jana listens to what they're saying, but when I bring Katka, she distracts Jana, and doesn't care about what we're talking about. I was telling her about dorost (my Czech youth group), and I was describing what we do there, I said we eat, play games and talk. Then she was quiet, later she asked "About God?". I said yes. She said bummer. It is very depressing when you hear a friend tell you that. It is. It is. It is. At the end of youth group we have small groups and we talk about what we had just heard, I felt like I couldn't translate anymore, so they were sitting there. They were really wild, and sometimes I had to shush them, they didn't like that. During the sermon, Havalind translated for Katka and I translated for Jana. Well, if you could call it translating. There was so much I didn't translate, and so much I would stutter at. I just felt horrible! I prayed that God would help me translate, and he did! Well, for some of it. It was really hard for me, and I'm guessing for them too. If there is one way you can pray for me, it's that I can show Christ to my friends, and they'll take a hint.
Love, Peace and Blessings,
That Missionary Kid

Sarah- It is so brave of you to tell your friends about Jesus and we are praying for you all the way in Iowa. Katie (I was at camp with your family at Lake Champion years ago, the year we did the pirates with that cool pirate ship, remember ??)
Thank you so much for praying for me and my family, unfortunately, I do not remember you, but thank your parents once again for the peanut butter and macaroni and cheese!
