“When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.  Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” Matthew 9:36-38

Central Europe is rich in history, beauty, and culture, but spiritually desperate for a relationship with Christ. The State Church claims that 66% of Germans profess to be Christian.  However, statistics show that only 1-3% of Germans profess a personal relationship with Christ. Our Germany church planting partners want to “seek and save the lost!” They want to see Jesus transform the lives of people in Germany and we feel honored to encourage and work alongside them in a Jesus-resistant society. 

Our goal for the trip this summer is first and foremost to spread the love of Jesus. We will be supporting our German partners as they reach out to their communities through special events and camps.  As we work alongside and stay with members of these young churches, we are excited to build relationships that will allow us to more directly pray and encourage them throughout the year.  Please join us through prayer and financial support as we spread the love of Jesus in Germany!
