Gathering and Multiplying

The adventure of trying to see communities of new believers gathered and multiplied is never boring. Mostly because you are never completely in control. Or if you are, then you aren't doing something right.

This year one of our main national partners decided that they were not in the business of seeing communities started, but rather more about helping communities that already in existence. That means that the group that she is working with is not quite on the same page as us anymore, but that had been a long time coming.

Fortunately, the other group that we are working with is more energized than ever, and this seems to be the event that has finally compelled them to be 100% on board. Also, many of the new believers and workers that have been with us all this time are still committed to the vision, so we may have more potential leaders now than we did before!

A relatively new group has also been started independently of the other two, but this one is mainly composed of "pre-believers," so we do not know quite where it will end up, but for now things are going well.

All of this, and we are less than five months away from having to be away from this work for a year! So parallel to the Saxony developments, we will soon be reporting on Steiermark updates as well. Go do your research if you don't want to wait for us to deliver the basic information! (The joke is that everytime Arnold Schwarzenegger wakes up screaming it is because he dreamed he was bake in the Steiermark. It doen't look that bad to us.)
