It's raining in England

At last the rain has come!! Yesterday was the first rainy day I have seen since arriving...and it has continued into today. :) Every Monday we have vegetable soup for lunch...we had just sat down and filled our bowls when the fire alarm went off!! You know the drill...the central meeting point is always outside and away from the building. Soooo...leave your warm bowl of soup and wonder out into the cold rain...soup or rain...soup or rain??? I could tell everyone in the cafeteria felt the same. :) Quite funny...and a blessing to come back in and find my soup was still warm. :0)
The picture above is of a field of rapeseed. It is used for many different things including bio fuel. Just thought I would share it...there are miles of green fields around here and so the bright yellow flowers are magnified in the contrast..quite lovely!
This weeks memory verse: And so dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice-the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:1-2 NLT
