We went to church at the Chiesa Christiana Evangelica Berea in Rome with the Liles this morning and it was a very nice service. It was in Italian so we didn't understand much but we did have an interpreter so at least we knew what was going on. This service was special as the Pastor Bill Standridge is the one that helped get the Liles their letter they needed to get into Italy. They also had a special time of prayer just for the country of Ethiopia that lasted about 20 minutes. They pick different countries to pray for periodically. It was exciting to see that they are involved in Missions in this way. They then had a church wide lunch and it was good to get to visit with the people and to eat a lot of authentic Italian foods. They take their time as the service lasted about 2 and a half hours and then lunch lasted about the sane amount of time. But it didn't seem that long as it was very nice.
