We are ungovernable!


I passed this painted on the wall of the University of Athens last week on my way to class. It clearly reflects the mindset of Greek youth. This graffiti was commemorating the anniversary of the riots that broke out in Athens last year at this time during which one 15 year old boy was shot and killed. A new government is in office this year and they have chosen not to let the students break bank windows, burn cars and garbage dumpsters and keep the university locked up. Needless to say, this has made the past weeks much more peaceful and easier to do business in the center.

Please keep praying for the Greek young people, they are really without hope. They don't have hope in the educational system, the government, the church, or in their ability to provide for families in the future.

Please pray for God to pour out His Spirit and draw this generation of "ungovernable" young people to Himself through Jesus Christ!
