WESTERN EUROPE

Paul said to Barnabus "Let's go back to every city where we spread the Lord's word. We'll visit the believers to see how they are doing." Acts. 15.36
Ps 26:7 That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of all thy wondrous works.

IRELAND
We had the privilege to minister at a teen challenge in Ireland this year. After the precious time of ministry we were invited for tea and biscuits with the women living there. It was a excellent time of intimate sharing about life and Jesus. We are so grateful for this opportunity. Below is a picture of the home that houses the teen challenge program.


The theme of the conference this year was "saying YES." While Terry ministered to the adults, Pat was ministering to the children. Pat also had a time of teacher training with those that that work with the children in the church.
We had many meetings with leaders. It was done Irish style with food and tea. This setting allowed a more relaxed and intimate time of questions and answers for so many things that come up in ministry.
We were so blessed to see how much the church has grown in just one year. We had many moments of that special one on one ministry with new and old members of the church body. There were also some very intimate times of prayer.
BELGIUM

Our next stop was Belgium to Christian Church of Antwerp. It had been three years since our last visit and it was wonderful to again greet the old and meet the new brothers and sisters in the Lord.
Below we are with Pastors Wille and Nelly, our precious co-laborers in the Lord.
It was so exciting to see how much the church has grown in the last three years. The Sunday service was so filled that many people had to sit on the steps as they ran out of chairs.
We had many moments of one on one times of fellowship, encouragement and prayer for our precious brothers and sisters in the Lord.


Below is a picture of our precious brothers and sisters in Belgium. This is a Spanish speaking church in a Flemish speaking country, so it has it challenges. But God has been faithful.
