Days 9-10 - Scotland 09

Saturday was originally supposed to be rainy but the rain didn't come until late at night and the day was beautiful. Those who went to Edinburgh had a great time and got back without any problems. I stayed back for a morning of retreat and prayer. In the afternoon, Angus and Carol Mcneil, invited me to go with them to Loch Sween. Angus and Carol are retired missionaries who served in the Congo, Thailand and as executive leaders of the Baptist Mission Society - the one founded by William Carey. Along the way we saw more seals and pups sunning on rocks, two white swans, and a red deer with large antlers. We also viewed some old gravestones, some having Christian symbols dating back to around the year 1000. The history of the USA is really recent history.

This morning, there were several families of children visiting as a result of the Holiday Club. The gospel was presented and there was a cook-out afterward. The rain cleared up enough for us to enjoy being outside.

Tomorrow we and several Scottish friends are going about an hour's drive to the city of Oban for touring and shopping. We plan to get to bed as early as possible tomorrow night as we hope to leave Loch Gilphead at 5:30 am local time on Tuesday to get to the Glasgow airport for our flight back to the USA. Please keep praying.
