Evening, Feb 11

We are back from our journeys today.  Chaplain David Guinn  broke us up into 4-5 member teams to scout out several locations before the games officially tomorrow.  Lots of hustle and bustle on the street right now. Venders, corporations with displays, street performers, and others....plus a growing number of visitors coming in for the Olympics.  Also the rain continues to fall, making it very cold and difficult to work.  The weather has just not cooperated.

  Below are some pictures which I took this afternoon.

Here I am with part of the team I worked with today, Jonathon and Peggy.

Here members of our team are sharing Christ with people on the street. Our Jackets created lots of interest by peoplewe past on the street.  They would often stop and ask who we were, and what were we doing.


A pin trader we ran a crossed on the street today.  He is from Greece.  Pin trading is a big part of what happens outside of the sporting events.  Every group, every company, every country, every... they all have at least one pin that is given away or traded.  Pins from prior Olympics are also traded.  This led AMI to design their own pin...The Jesus Pin.
