Mosques and Markets
Good morning folks!
Today we started off the morning by getting to sleep in a little bit and then eating some breakfast. We then had a time of worship and prayer together as a team. This was a very nice time as it was good to recenter ourselves on God and be reminded of why we are here in Morocco.
After this, we got to prepare lunch together. Some of us walked to a nearby store to get some groceries and then we made mac & cheese for lunch, which tasted amazing!
The plan for the afternoon had been to tour the Hassan II Mosque, which is the second largest mosque in Africa, but our plans ended up getting a little bit disrupted because of Ramadan. We were not able to tour the inside of the mosque, but we were still able to walk around the outside and pray for the Muslims who were praying inside the mosque, the tourists who had come to see the mosque and were watching from the outside, as well as the whole city of Casablanca.
It was fascinating getting to walk around the mosque. There was so much attention to detail in everything, and it was beautiful, but there was also a heaviness to it at the same time. I thought it was an interesting contrast that we could go there and be praying in our hearts to God, interceding for this place and these people, while they were inside praying to Allah.
After that, we walked along the ocean and got to see what a Moroccan market looks like in the older part of Casablanca. It was very busy and very crowded with lots of motorcycles buzzing around, but very cool and exciting at the same time.
In the evening, we had supper together as a team and then had some relaxed time together, which was very nice after a busy day.
Please continue to be praying for our time in Morocco, as well as the city of Casablanca, and the entire country of Morocco. Pray that God would be working and moving, and that change could come to this city and country.
Thank you so much for your prayers and support!
