Corneishe Outreach

Every night we would grab dinner and then all meet up about 7:30p.m. to walk to the Corneishe together. The first night we had dinner with the Caldwell's and Tyler, waited on the Lord, and then went to find our "treasure." Port and Haynes were my little bold warriors. Port left our room and yelled, "Let's go pray for people!" Immediately convinced Tyler they needed to pray for the men working the restaurant at the bottom of our hotel. The fun thing about that story is that the man was super touched. Later in the week some of our guys ran into him in his neighborhood and he was still talking about Port praying for him.

The Corneishe is a walkway that goes along the ocean. We rotated between here and downtown every night. Haynes had a really sweet encounter here too! It was so fun seeing the words God had spoken over us come to life. Haynes just declaring Jesus name broke down walls in a man that Drew and Brian couldn't. Ella was a little magnet for children, teenage boys, and anyone else that walked by! We had some really sweet encounters with some mommies because of Ella. Brian and Jason encountered a guy one night and every night we came back he was waiting on us!

These are so of the stairs that we had to take to get to the Corneishe. Every now and then the strollers would take a different route, but this is just a small example of the roads we traveled. By the end of our trip I said that I should win the award for urban stroller terrain! I didn't work out while we were gone, but I'm pretty sure my arms were worked quite well:-)

The is a tree that was outside the gates to AUB. The first time we passed it my kids were SO excited to climb it. One of our favorite things to do is take the kids walking on campus. We have a great climbing tree at OU that we always go to, so the boys were so excited to find their new climbing tree in Lebanon.

This is Bliss Street which runs right in front of our hotel. Drew asked Port what was different from America and Lebanon. Port's response was, "They sure do honk a lot!" At night when we would put the kids to bed Port would always ask, "Why are they still honking...I can't sleep!" Eventually we wore them out enough that the honking didn't matter:-) As you can see our kids will climb anything! We would wait for everyone here, so if there was ever any down time the boys would see how fast they could climb the pole.
