A Day in Edinburgh

Today we had the opportunity to visit Edinburgh since it is only a 45 minute train ride from Glasgow. We were able to walk to the Castle, then down to the Grassmarket where some of our brothers and sisters were martyred because they believed that Christ is the only true head of the church and no man should be the head of the church. We walked some of the Royal Mile - the road in between the palace and the castle, and we visited St. Giles Cathedral, the mother church of Presbyterianism. We also got to see John Knox's home.

We're definitely tired, but Providence shined upon us by giving us a day with no rain even though it was overcast all day.

We're looking forward to being with our brothers and sisters tomorrow. Harry will preach at St. Columba's church, and Tom will preach at Sandyhills Church. Please pray for them both.

Thanks for your prayers!
Carolyn (for the team)
