About 26 ministers and leaders from all over Germany came together for our annual Ministers’ General Assembly, and for a great time of instruction, impartation, and testimony from former Maine Superintendent, Rev. Rick Stoops.  God moved in our meetings powerfully, with wonderful worship led by various teams, and prophetic and doctrinal teaching by Bro. Stoops.

We were also able to establish new departments within Germany for our Men’s, Prayer, Campus , and Hyphen ministries, under the leadership of our General Superintendent, Bro. Paul Brochu.  We are excited to get these departments established and running, while assisting with direction and training.

Along with the team from Pentecostals of Alexandria, led by Bro. Anthony Mangan, Bro. Nathan Harrod, Regional Director for Europe, Bro. Tim Gaddy, Superintendent of the Arkansas District, and Bro. Elias Limones preached powerful messages.  I was able to support the translation effort in German, along side of Italian, French, Serbian, Russian and other languages.  It was also a chance for ministries like EuroAIM to be present and make contacts throughout Europe.

After returning from BOTTEurope at the end of July, we received notice that we need to leave our current building in Munich.   The building administrator had required rent from us for a portion of the building we had been sharing with a neighboring group, and which we told the building owner in January that we no longer needed and could no longer support.   Instead of working out a solution, we received notice that we need to vacate our space by the end of October.  I immediately started fasting and praying.

We have continued to pray.  One Friday night at the end of our Intercessory Prayer night, the Holy Ghost prompted me to look up a church we had considered asking to share their space with us.  The Google Maps listing showed, “permanently closed.”  Right after prayer, I went over and prayed in front of the building, and called the number that was shown on the listing, a Stuttgart number.  I left a message, and later wrote an email.  The next Wednesday, as we were returning home, I got a call from a realtor asking if I would like to see the building the next day.  Of course I agreed. It is not 100% firm, and it will be a financial hurdle for us, but we are praying that God make a way for us to rent this entire building, which is well-located, near train, subway, tram, and bus stops as well as about 300 ft from a shopping center.  Please pray with us!!

Sunday School

We had just started holding Sunday School in our current location after a few years of not being able to accommodate it.  Sis. Andrea Lyman had volunteered and has been doing a great job with material and conducting classes.  Areas like this have been wonderful recent developments, which makes this new step both a challenge as well as a great opportunity for the Lord to take us to the next level.
