YMCA
was before yesterday, once again, youth night or YMCA meeting, every Friday evening from 19 clock in St. John's Church will take place - yesterday we are then only at 0: 30 Clock returned. Our first Estonian girlfriend (music student at the Viljandi Culture Academy in here) that we are on the birthday know an Italian volunteers had learned the first time we had invited, and since then we actually go there every Friday and will do well for the next months. At the beginning we always sing a few songs from the hymnal youth, talk about a biblical passage and make the rest of the evening relatively independently. Some then go from the youth room in the basement up into the actual "church" to sit at the piano and a few (gospel) to sing songs. The fact that the Estonians can sing well, I had been to a couple of guide books and the like read. "Good singing is but for what these young people are capable an understatement: and here actually everyone (even without vocal training) sing. Who sings not mentioned or simply to set, you can play in the basement, talk, or candles - make plaster casts of hands, ears, noses - such as yesterday.
we are usually translated Kalmer (the youth leader, who spent a year at a Bible school in Norway), what he has said in Estonian into English again, but the day before we even get it translated into German. The approximately 24-year-old director of the Gospel Choir of St. John's Church was there: she was an au pair in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and really speaks perfect German. We will then go to gospel choir, having now first in the church choir St. Paul's Church (where we sing more traditional church and folk songs) join. The director of the Gospel choir we live almost opposite and almost - like the other young people at night also - incredibly nice. The Estonians as I got to know them yet, have an infinite spontaneous, intimate, humorous and natural way I know I'll have written the determined before, but you can not imagine how much I am pleased so many nice people to get to know. And the conversations are usually then anything but superficial, but usually very honest and personal. Just before the (official) end then we pray together and sing yet little. And colors them slowly to comfort me off, at least I have the feeling that I will even relaxed a lot. Above all, I am learning slowly to enjoy my free time and sometimes get to do anything. Learn more diligent course Estonian: Did yesterday even be able to say what in Estonian about the scripture that we read at the youth night. Discussed more later.
