October GWOM: Πείνα - Hunger

Please pray for these refugees who have been without food and who feel they are without a voice in this country. Pray for us as we live life by their side. Pray for God to give us wisdom and compassion. Help us to be Jesus to them.

September GWOM: ΕΠΟΧΗ - SEASON

July GWOM: Η ΚΑΙΝΗ ΔΙΑΘΗΚΗ - THE NEW TESTAMENT

Πρόσφυγες - Refugees

What a privilege it has been to be part of two refugee camps this month. The second week of June Mike served a camp for 26 Muslim refugee men. These men were from Morocco, Algeria, Iran, Syria and Nigeria. They spent five days together at camp enjoying Persian food, fun times in the sea and sharing about who Jesus is.

The next week both Mike and I served at family refugee camp where we hosted 20 Afghan families (88 people total). It was an incredible time to just love on these people as we did crafts, archery, played games and swam together. They enjoyed the refreshment from the city and we loved sharing with them truths about Jesus from the gospel of John, Jesus as the Good Shepherd, the Light of the World, The Bread of Life, and the Way and the Truth and the Life.

Please pray that the many of these people will come to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

Απεργία May 5, 2010

Please pray for the people of Greece as there is tremendous social unrest and tension here these days. We are praying that God will use this national crisis as a catalyst to bring people to Himself.

In the midst of all this, our pastor taught us from Ps 11:3 "When the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do?" Stand in the righteousness of Christ and make use of every opportunity to speak about the unshakable Hope we have in Jesus.

We pray that the Greeks will see the foundations being destroyed and will turn to the only One is able to save them.



Our city May 5, 2010. Mike rode his bicycle through this mob to get to and from our center, about two blocks from here, to work with the refugee men. So thankful God kept him and the others safe, so much work to do.

Police say 25,000+ people demonstrated in Athens during a nation-wide general strike. As usual, it began peacefully, but became destructive and violent. We ran our Wednesday like normal with refugee men's showers and laundry along with a Bible study discussion group with lunch. All this to the sound of sirens, chants, tear gas canisters going off, smoke rising from the city, etc...
