Circular Letter December 2007

THE END OF THE YEAR

« »

The past year 2007 was blessed in a tremendous way. Never before have so many people in so many countries heard the Word of God. Never before did we reach so many people with the monthly broadcasts of our meetings in Krefeld and Zurich. We are deeply grateful to God for providing us with the opportunity and the ability to carry the last message to the far corners of the earth via the Internet. So far we are able to transmit in seven different languages, and, God willing, by the middle of next year we will have the capacity to broadcast the services in 12 different languages.

May I take this opportunity to express my gratitude to all of you who support the work of the Mission Center. We can rest one hundred percent assured that this work is ordained by God Himself and that the ministry, which we offer unto Him, is in His perfect Will. According to the direct commission of God Almighty we have preached the true Word; and the LORD, by His grace, has been with us throughout. With His help we will press on, and His Truth shall remain in us right to the end: “For the truth‘s sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever.” (2. Jn. 2).

God willing, I shall continue to be in Krefeld for the meetings at the Mission Center on the first weekend of every month and in Zurich for the meetings held on every last Sunday. The time in between is dedicated to the work in the Mission Center and to the trips to the various countries.

The last meeting in Zurich is planned for Sunday, December 23rd, 2007, at 14:00 h in the Volkshaus, with the LORD’S Supper as well as a time of fellowship after the meeting.

In Krefeld we shall have our first international gathering on January 5th and 6th, 2008, God willing.

The Israel trip has been extended by one more day. Since El Al does not have enough seats for May 15th, 2008, we will fly back on May 16th. The cost for the additional day is only 30 Euro, and it gives us an extra day in Jerusalem.

More than 80 participants have already registered with us for the trip to Israel, which means that we will soon be at full capacity for two busses. Experience has taught us that a few seats may become available again at the last minute, so that others who have delayed their decision can still join us on this trip.

With great confidence we move forward into the year 2008, knowing that the LORD who finished the work of creation is the same One Who will finish His work of Redemption. God Himself has taken full responsibility for His entire plan of Salvation, and He has assigned us our rightful places therein. It is my desire that all Brothers and Sisters might become a blessing unto others, for this is what God promised to Abraham, “I will bless thee, … and thou shalt be a blessing.” Do not be ashamed to share with others the promises of God and also what He has done and still does to this day. Take your stand upon the Word with the LORD. Lastly, I would like to wish all of you a blessed year 2008; may the LORD be with you throughout the year.
