A Trip to Marburg

Last week, on our day off, we (the Roper family, Edmund & Martha, and Amir) took a trip to Marburg. On the way there we stopped in a village called Gladenbach and ate at an Italian Restaurant. It was amazing! And then we headed towards Marburg. We had a good time there and went to a couple of different places. One of the places that we went to was the location where Martin Luther debated a man from Sweden about the eucharist. It is at a location that oversees all of Marburg. Now I have to be honest with you. I love locations when you can look over the whole city! I told Edmund, "We need to raise up someone to start a Calvary Chapel here in Marburg! This will be his prayer spot!"


Later on we went to the old city of Marburg and stood right outside of a resturant that Martin Luther would often go to. It is still a resturant today. This building (as you can see in one of the pics) was built in 1600.
I am not sure what the Lord wants to do, but I do pray that the Lord will do a work of His Spirit there in Marburg. It is needed desparetly!
