Monday March 22. After a quick metro ride to Gare Central and breakfast at Ibis, we are off to the Metro to meet John K at Gribaumont to prayer walk through this commune. We met Terry W there and were encouraged by his kind words. We walked through the neighborhood, stopped at a Del Haze, a grocery store that is owned by the same company that owns Food Lion. Needless to say things are much more expensive there! We walked through a park, beautiful park, saw a few people walking their dogs, even a couple of grandfathers walking babies. Because the cost of living is so high grandparents often care for young children while both parents work. It was definitely a place I could see us living as a family. Our prayer walk was followed by a trip to the bank to exchange our money and a lunch at eOleo, a wonderful little neighborhood Italian resaurante. After lunch we took a tram to the metro and rode to st Lambrechts. this is where the City Gates are. What a sight! There we met Chris K. He joined John to show us around and give some great tips. He and his wife Christine were so helpful and friendly. God has placed some amazing people in that city! At this stop we prayed outside the largest Mosque in Belgium, and also at the EU building. This exciting day was finished off with dinner, a waffle and a walk through the Grand Place at night. What a beautiful day, God is moving in this place!
