We woke up this morning....

To a Korean shouting something at 5:30am.Come to think of it...he shouted yesterday morning at 5:30. I bet itwill happen again tomorrow. Time seems to go slow over here. Darrellis sitting at the desk in our room and I am sitting on the bed. Wehave been discussing todays lecture about prophetic worship. Goodstuff.Yesterday was so interesting. We wish that you could be here with usto witness some of our activities. Their morning worship time wasrefreshing because, for the first time ever in our visits to Korea,they were quiet for some time to allow the Holy Spirit to speak. Nomusic from the band or background tape. Just good old fashion silenceuntil someone spoke. In Korean of coarse so we didn't understand whatwas said. Then they prayed for the countries this YWAM base isconnected with. The flag, map and scripture for each country is onthe walls and they turn to face these country to intercede for them.This all happened in the dinning room area with the other schools onthis base plus some neighbors who live on the island adding up toabout 200+ people. We will be speaking to this crowd on Thursdaynight about the eagle and Is. 40. Other times we split up intosmaller groups and we are involved with about 45-50 people in a smalltrailer style class room. It is like moving around and teaching in anairplane. My hips are wider than the isles. Many of them havecomputers so during the lecture part you hear this wave of tapping. Iwant to start laughing but there is no one to enjoy the laughter withme and it would offend them greatly. They are busy. Darrell is goingto apply some of the teaching we had with Dave Olsen. The drawingwith our non-dominate hand and love letter to God. He is going to askthem to close the lap tops. Should be an interesting morning session.This camp has the typical camp food and they have been trying hard toaccommodate our tastes. It's raining so we haven't made it to thebeach yet. Darrell went into town yesterday but took a taxi back herewhen it started to rain.Our apartment here is much smaller than the apartment in Taejon butfilled with all the comforts. I love the heated floors and bedding.Darrell was in a deep place during worship back in Taejon when theLord spoke to him a word. Galveston. He went to the Internet to lookup Galveston, Texas. He found out that one hundred years ago theyexperienced a storm surge that caused 6000 deaths. The worst USnatural disaster to date.

Love to you all, Carlene
