Wales + England

A few weeks ago I had a two week break from school and I was able to spend some time in Wales, England, and Italy! The first week I attended a Christian conference for university age students in Wales. It was such an encouragement to be built together with other lovers of Christ from all over Europe. Here are a few points that impressed me: Every chapter of 1 Thessalonians ends with the coming of the Lord; this shows that the writer, Paul, lived and worked with the Lord's coming before him, taking it as an attraction, an incentive, a goal and a warning. Because we are awaiting the Son of God from the heavens, our future is focused on Him; our life declares that we have no hope on this earth and no positive destiny in this age and that our hope is the coming Lord, who is our destiny forever - this governs, holds, and keeps our Christian life.

Later in the week I had the opportunity to stay with a family in London and do some sightseeing and attend a second conference! Unfortunately, my camera stopped working so I only took a few pictures. I got to see the Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, The London Eye, Tate Gallery, the Camden Market, Regents Park, Abbey Road, the London Bridge, go inside the Tower of London, and walk along the river Thames at night – which was absolutely amazing!
