We have been asked to meet with and disciple two refugee men who have been placed in our area. They are desiring to study the Bible. One is a believer, the other&#8230; not yet.<\/p>\n<p>Our new local CV, 1\/2 mile from our church, should open in just a few weeks and will house 1,000 refugees.

Jeannie leads this English speaking ministry and many Germans attend this quarterly brunch for friendship and to practice their English. Several have accepted Christ as their Savior through this outreach because of the testimony and message of the Gospel that is shared. Our former neighbor, a Buddhist, has returned for her 3rd brunch and this time brought her daughter with her. Please pray they will accept Christ into their hearts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ALABASTER JAR<\/strong><br \/>\nOn October 7th, we will celebrate 10 years of the Alabaster Jar Ministry. Right now there are three women off the streets and staying at the Berlin safe house. We pray that they will find true security and true love only found in a relationship with Christ.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THANK YOU<\/strong> for praying! God has answered! We returned to the field 2 months ago. We have found housing, moved in, got a vehicle, etc. and have been involved in ministry all at the same time. Last month we had a couple days of meetings with our European\/Middle East supervisors. The work in Germany and all of Europe is full of promise!
