On the road again in Turkey

We left Istanbul Turkey and headed south. Our first shows were in a plaza outside the largest shopping mall in Bursa (population 2.5 million).We had 2 great shows, very well attended and our trial run of the different performance elements (music, dance, drama, unicycling and fire poi) flowed surprisingly well. We had lots of good talks with people after each show and got contact info for follow-up from many more.

Next we performed in Izmir , in a park, on top of a fountain. The fountain had just been turned off so it took us a while to dry it with fans, brooms and squeegees. It turned out to be a nice venue even though we were still surrounded by water and had a water and pipe filled hole in the middle of the stage.

The touristy city of Kusadasi was our next stop with a 10p show on the seaside at the Peace and Friendship Square. Dustin shared that because of God's love for us we can have a friendship with Him that will bring peace to our lives.

We have been challenged on this tour to make the most of every opportunity to share Christ. Thus, at a gas station enroute to Antalya, Dustin pulled out a unicycle and did a demonstration for the employees and we gave them Dustin's cards with his testimony written in Turkish.

Thanks for praying with us during this journey. God is at work and we are humbled to be part of it.
