germany: day 2



Veselé Velikonoce
Fröhliche Ostern
Happy Easter


Day two of our retreat in Bavaria, near  Regen and about 20 km from Deggendorf (which Roxie continually mixes up and calls "Dingledorf"...sorry German-speaking people around the world). The weather is lovely on this fine Easter morning. Pussywillows are everywhere and frogs hopping by...it is serene and pastoral.


After a great message by our speaker, Ernst we had some singing. We sang my favourite Czech worship song "Hoden je Beránek". Here is a video of this song...not us singing, of course.


Hoden je Beránek nejvyšší chvály.
On nás vykoupil svou krví.

Jenom Ty jsi navěky Král.
Jenom Tobě patří sláva, Pane náš.

Budeme jásat nad Tvým vítězstvím,
prapory pozdvihnem ve jménu svého Boha.
Jenom Ty jsi navěky Král ... 

Worthy is the Lamb highest praise.
He redeemed us with His blood.

You're the Only King, forever.
Only to you be glory, our Lord.

We will rejoice over your victory,
raise the banners in the name of our God.

You're the Only King, forever ... 

Then we went on a walk through the forest, across the wooden bridge.




We came back from our walk to find a make your own pizza bar set up so we made our pizzas and they were wood oven cooked in under 5 minutes. YUMMY!










Our tummies full, we sat down with Hans, Jane, Drahuš, Roxie, Dan and I, to play Phase 10. A card game that lasted us 4 evenings....
