My first blog


The photo was taken during a recent visit to Cyprus. It was taken in front of the post office in Nicosia.
Nicosia, the capital city of Cyprus, is claimed to be the last divided city in the world.
We walked over the "green line", that's the border between the Greek and Turkish parts of the city. We are actually in the Turkish part.
We were visiting a number of Sri Lankan churches on the island. We flew over just to encourage them.
They are quite unique churches. They are 80-90% female and most of them only became Christians after they left their home in Sri Lanka.
Our visit seems to have opened a door that will be very interesting to go through. We had the chance to meet many different people. We got to know some Philippinos and Ex-pat British as well as refugees from Lebanon and various other interesting people.
We are in the process of organising something more to go back.
