Hello...Well we have made it safely to Singapore. The flight was ok... quite bumpy, but I have to say that I'm impressed with Singapore Airlines- they even give us Chips, and chocolate - definitely suited our movie watching, chilling out - kiwi type of fun. I was trying to not watch any movies but I have to be honest and let you know that I gave in - the flight was 10.5 hours so we had to try and make the time go faster. I watched 27 dresses, and step it up 2.
We got into Singapore at around 7.30pm. David Elliot from world outreach met us at airport and took us on the MRT( subway train)- for about an hour... Dad was slowly fading- poor thing.. but he managed to get off the train and into the taxi ok... and also pay for it all - as we didnt have much singapore dollars - yay for DADS.... We got to our accomodation at about 9.30pm. Dad is on basement level, and we are on level 3. We are staying at the Salvation Army Praisehaven Retreat centre. Its different to what I thought. It kinda feels like a hostel... The church is part of the complex, and heaps of other stuff..
Its just after 6am... we woke not long ago... and its RAINING, and thunder and Lighting - we are doing some thinking about how to get around today as its VERY WET. I'm sure some miracles will take place and we will be FINE.
The verse that i'm reminded of this morning is Psalm 29.. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name, worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness.The voice of the Lord is over the waters, the GOD OF glory thunders, the LORD thunders over the mighty waters. WE DO SERVE A POWERFUL AND MIGHTY GOD. What a privilege to worship him today in another nation and see his handy work through the rain and thunder and lightning and of course the beautiful people we are meeting.
Will write again soon..... love katie
