Even so, yesterday evening was a little chilly and I found myself digging out the firewood again as we settled down to watch a movie together. I thoroughly recommend, "End of the Spear" - a story about how the gospel came to the Waoudani tribe (the Auca Indians) in Ecuador. You may already be familiar with the story of the missionaries who were killed by the Auca in 1956, and this is a very well produced film telling the whole story of that time, and up to the present day.
I have a new housemate for the two month season of the LDC. Or perhaps I should say an old housemate. Sue and I lived together for a year when I first moved to Spain in 2008; we adopted a street cat and raised a litter of kittens together. Although she then moved back to live in the UK again, she stayed in our home during the 2010 LDC and now is back with me again for the 2015 LDC. The cats seemed to have got used to having her around again, and took turns to sit on our laps while we were watching the film last night. 
The rest of the LDC staff will be arriving in Spain over the next couple of days, and we'll be having a week of prayer and preparation before the delegates arrive the following weekend. Not pictured here are Trudie and Ana, the two wonderful staff who will be cooking for us during the LDC; that is truly an encouraging answer to prayer.
