Right now I am in Mongolia with our Discipleship Training School (DTS). We arrived here about 10 days ago, after 3 days on the train and another 13h on the bus:-). It was great how the people here met us and helped us getting around. As soon as we could we went to the embassy to apply for visas to got to the next country. We found out that Russians can't receive a visa for that country in Mongolia! What should we do now? We had no idea and we prayed a lot. There was only one last option to get a certain document, which we don't really qualify to get that. But at Christmas day, which is obviously not a holiday here, we got some extra grace and through many people involved in that process we were able to apply for the visas! Praise God, that was really a miracle!Mongolia is pretty cool, I already froze my nose again and it's peeling off now. I like the people here, very friendly, except in traffic. We are finishing our lecture phase now and leaving the 3rd of January to that other country on the train. By the way: spread the word: the very first YWAM Vladivostok DTS will start September 19th in 2010! We are pretty excited about that!
