On Sunday the 27th of September we had an International Ministry in the FeG Wienhausen.
Among the different nationalities present, there were people present from Albania, Bolivia, Italia, Mexico, South Africa, Scotland, Uruguay, Estonia, India, Nigeria, Russia, Montenegro and of course Germany! I really hope I haven’t forgotten any nationalities! We were absolutely delighted to welcome them to the International Ministry.
On Sunday we saw God’s word become a reality: Isaiah 56: 7 b
“…for my house will be called a house of prayer for all nations."
It was a blessing to sit among people from different
countries and to hear so many different languages being spoken during our
joyful fellowship time after the ministry.
On Sunday we really wanted to put into practice the subject
of our second year of the International Ministry which was: “as Jesus is, so
are we”
The subject for that year came from John 4:17 “By this love
is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment,
because just as Jesus is, so also are we in this world.”
We spent the first year of our ministry learning about how
we are all foreigners in this world no matter where we were born and that the
only way to overcome the difficulties of life in this world is to have Jesus in
our lives.
Jesus said in John 16:33 ”…In this world you will have
trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
At the end of that first year we came to the conclusion that
in order to overcome the problems and difficulties of life in this world we
don’t just need Jesus in our private lives but we really need to be like Jesus.
This subject continues to be extremely relevant today among
us in the International Ministry as we continue to try to be like Jesus was when
He walked the earth. We want to welcome everyone, no matter their nationality,
their skin colour or language.
If you know people who can’t speak or understand German and
are Christians or wish to know about Christ, please invite them to our
International Ministry in English on Sunday 11th of October at 15:00
hours at the FeG Wienhausen.
The ministry will be translated to German, but if we
know in advance we can also try to arrange translators for other languages, so
please contact us to let us know where you or your guests come from.
And if you or they can already speak German? You and they
are also welcome! from other countries or Germany! Everyone is welcome!
Come and join us and invite others to come too. God rejoices
when His house is full of people that wish to get to know Him and each other regardless
of the language, after all He speaks all languages!
