Last night was the second opportunity I had to go into a couple of Hamburg's main red light districts. The air is really heavy there everywhere we go. With prostitution legal in Germany (women receive health insurance for it) it is all over. The main red light district called the Reeperbhan is praised by all of Hamburg and boasted about to all who visit.
We however started our night in the drug and pimp district. To explain in short what the night had for us, we got to play a ton od worship music which really drew a crowd of all sorts of people, so we got to pray and talk to many of them. It was very emotional but we felt really lucky to be there.
By about eleven we went on to the Reeperbhan with just about ten of us. It was insanity there, prettymuch everything goes. There was so much chaos and exploition which was really heart breaking. We didn't talk to many people there but got to pray a lot and understand a little more of what the reality of that area is. The irony is the main street we were on is called the great freedom...
There was a lot more that went on but that's an idea of it. On a lighter note were getting ready all day to go on tour tomorrow! Two weeks on a tour bus with Summer2Go all over Germany. Its going to be sweet and I'm excited to meet all the other people were traveling with!
Thank you for all your prayers I can't believe its already been a month!
