The Notz Notes - Germany (Prayer Letter Fall 2010)
September 2010
Big Day
According a recent survey, 53% of
Germans think, that today they are
treated worse by their fellow countrymen
than 10 years ago.
Through our services and special guest
events, we not only want to personalize
the gospel, but we also try to counter
act the mentioned trend by showing
that Jesus has truly changed our lives.
3 new families attended our latest
Guest Sunday, and in the weeks to
follow we were able to welcome new
visitors to our services as well. Each of
them expressed that it was a positive
experience.
Youth Camp
Our children- and teen camp was once
again a highlight of the year. 56
participants from 3 churches explored
the knighthood through games
devotions and crafting swords and bow
and arrow. Camp food actually was a
highlight too.
The women of our churches cooked
wonderful meals. Through their tireless
efforts we could not only offer a very low
camp charge, but were able to come up
with a surplus of close to € 800.00 ($
1,000.00). The extra funds were sent to
the Kozak family, church planters in
Lithuania. Marian Kozak came by the
camp for one day and challenged our
hearts to serve the Lord.
A Family Note
In closing we want to share some
encouraging family news. Our two
youngest boys have been doing their
evening devotions together. One evening
Caleb explained to his younger brother
Timothy how to be saved. Sherri then
asked Timothy if he wanted to pray with
her. However, he desired to do that all
by himself. Through the crack of the
door, Sherri noticed that Timmy was
kneeling by his bed, praying that Jesus
would come into this heart.
