Welcome to Team Scotland

Hey thanks for checking out the page. Ben and Nate are really excited for you to be apart of their adventures in Scotland. If you haven't already check out the About Team Scotland section. You should get a good laugh out of that. Also make sure you check out our prayer requests and please pray. One of the most exciting parts of supporting us is prayer! Your prayers in the states(or wherever you might be) affect us all the way over here in Scotland. We hope to be updating every other Sunday so be sure to check back and see just what God is doing over here. Perhaps you'll read some great story or see a picture of how God has answered all of our prayers. To see full size pictures click on the photo album down there in the right column just under our Prayer section.

Scotland: More outreach than you can shake a stick at!

Hey everybody, this is Nate checking in for our semi-weekly update. Ben and I have had quite a busy two weeks, you'd think things might slow down a bit after the York team left, but that just wasn't the case. Last Friday we had a team from Atlanta come and put on an outreach event we called Connect. It was a lot of fun, Ben and I ran the lighting and powerpoint, the team did a great job keeping things exciting and Leo closed the night with a gospel presentation. We had free Bibles sitting on a table and encouraged the kids to take them, and 20 or so took them, so pray that these kids read their Bibles and come to know the Lord if they haven't already.

Just last night we had yet another event (I know, 3 in a row! We must be crazy!), we put on a Christ-centered passover banquet with a messianic Jewish family that we know. Several of the kids from the Thursday night Bible study came along and we all had a great time serving at it. About 50 people turned out for it and everyone enjoyed learning about the passover. No lambs were harmed in the making of the meal.

The Thursday night Bible study has been going really well too, the kids have been asking a lot of really great questions and by the grace of God Ben and I have been able to answer them from the Bible fairly well. God has also been growing Ben and I as teachers more and more every time, so that's been awesome. We'd like to disciple the kids more one on one and really pour into them in that way, so please pray that God would really make that fruitful and pray that we'll see these kids grow in God tremendously.

That's all for now, thanks for being so cool!
Nate

Hi Ben and Nate. I have just come across your blog and am really encouraged to see what you guys are doing in Inverness. We live on the Isle of Skye and are thrilled to hear of God calling people to bring the Gospel of Jesus to the youth here in the Highlands. We will be praying for you - and we'll keep an eye out for you next time we're through in Inverness!
