What have we been doing?

Keeping busy!





We use every opportunity available to minister (and make opportunities when possible.)

Whether on the streets, in the stores, in institutions, in parking lots, and even while riding around in a 1951 Mannschaftswagen - wherever people are.


2 Timothy 4:2-3, Preach the word of God. Be prepared, whether the time is favorable or not. Patiently correct, rebuke, and encourage your people with good teaching. For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching.

With Sunday coming up, we'll again be attending the Arche in Niebüll, the church we'll be ministering in starting next Sunday.

Mark 16:17 is true too!

And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils;

Yes, that's right - cast out devils.

We've found out that this area is very heavy into the occult, and have witnessed the devastating power that this has on many people. Sickness abounds and the suicide rate is high.

The Lord opened the door to minister to a severly depressed and suicidal young man in an institution; after casting out demons, he was set free! Praise the Lord! Follow up visit included him being filled with the Holy Spirit. Please keep him in prayer that he will not backslide, but rather continue to grow in Christ.

We are totally blessed to be able to be over here and see God moving so mightly. God is so good!

Our Home away from Home

Our drive up north took a lot longer than planned. The 3 1/2 hour trip took 8 hours - the whole trip was a major traffic jam as Saturday was the start of the summer holidays. We'll remember that for next time!

We are now in Dörpum where we've rented a Ferienwohnung (vacation house). This will be our home for the next 5 weeks.

Yesterday evening, we were invited to a Bible Study - so nice to be together with people who are hungry for God's Word. John 12 was studied with the discussion touching healing, salvation, deliverance, heaven, and hell. A very interesting evening indeed.

John 17:3, And this is life eternal, that they might know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.

Mark 16:20 is still true!

We've left southern Germany and are on our way up north. We've stopped in Minden to visit with some relatives we met three years ago.

Again had the opportunity to minister and see that Mark 16:20, " And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following" is still as true today as it was when it was written. We again witnessed the healing power of Jesus. Praise the Lord!

Today we continue on to our "new" home for the next 6 weeks in Dörpum. We are eagerly anticipating what the Lord will do!

Back in Germany, 2010

We're back in Germany, having arrived in Frankfurt on Tuesday, July 13. Heidi's brother, Joe and his wife, Susanne, have again welcomed us into their home in Erlenbach. They are blessing us with a car for the next 6 weeks! God is so good to us – He truly is our provider – our Jehovah-Jirah. We have a day to relax and get used to the 37° C temperatures.

We'd like to thank our families and our Victory family for their support and prayers. Sunday, with all the prayers and blessings, was such a great send-off – thank you again.

We are also thankful that God has opened to us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ – Col. 4:3.
