Today was the first Reach a Tourist meeting in Zurich. We are doing this project until Thursday. It was a bit slow today, but I think it was because of the deconstruction of the festival. Many people were not in the normal tourist spots because of the deconstruction happening in those exact spots. However, the Gospel was spread to many people from around the world. There was not a moment that wasn't ordained by the Father.
I was able to meet some people from New York. If you're in the states, you know that Northerners and Southerners do not get along. I was not going to let this stop me, but I almost let the mocking of my accent stop me. Y'all know how it is when you get tired the accent gets drawn out and fish becomes fiiiiiiiish. Well, I'm tired, and yes I'll be getting a lot of rest tonight, but it was uncalled for when one of them tried to imitate my accent. I am not bitter, but just a little disappointed that people still do that. I went on to help them know where to go within the city and where the cool places are to go with the old buildings. They seemed like nice people otherwise.
Tomorrow, we go back out to hopefully reach more and more tourists. Let's hope the rain holds off this week and that it stays cool enough that people want to come out and be a tourist.
God bless y'all and goodnight.
Stay steady. Jesus had a hard time in Nazareth. You can politely let them know we understand everyone can’t enjoy this beloved Southern culture and accent. It is a gift from God Himself. Prayers for you my sweet boy that you will be able to come back to your Nazareth and mud through the hate and bigotry.
