"March|" On!!

"Guten Tag" Dear Ones~

The weeks here seem to be flying by. Everyday is packed with things to do, so time passes quickly. Life at the bible college is fast paced, with every minute filled with studying, ministry, worship, fellowship, and of course, eating!!! Some of us even throw some sleep in there!!! But we are revelling in the blessings of ministry here.
We have a praise report, for those who have been praying about our car. As many of you know, we shipped it here, filling it with our musical equipment, instruments, and a couple of boxes of "stuff" that we couldn't fit in our suitcases. Our car arrived, and sat for almost 3 weeks in customs, waiting to be cleared. They don'tlike people bringing in things, in case of selling for profit,etc. We all prayed hard,and last Wednesday, Bruce got the clearance to pick it up! The first all sunny day we had, and God blessed his travels back from Bremehaven, (3 1/2 hours north). Everything arrived in good condition, including the car. We are so grateful. It's like a good old friend came to be with us. I was so excited to get keyboard, I stayed up til midnight just playing it!
Last night, we had a wonderful prayer meeting in our apt, and we worshipped away, and interceeded for many people, places and things. WITH our keyboard!
God is really stirring up the students to worship Him more, and press on towards more of God in their lives. The special times we have in our afterglow meetings have been a sweet and learning experience. Fears, walls, and insecurities are beginning to fall to the wayside, as God's presence is pouring out.
We found out that the last pastor's conference here in the EU, had pastors on their face, crying out before God, pleading for worship leaders. There is such a dearth of worship leaders with a heart to serve here. So many church plants are sprouting up. We had heard that before, but now we see first hand, the real need. We pray that God sends and raises up more young people (and even old!)to step out in faith and "go."
A student in the devotions this morning, shared how his parents left everything in America and went to Ireland to serve the Lord. They have found, like so many, that God is faithful, dependable, and will provide when we step out in faith to do His will.
Well, this already is pretty long......So much to say. The Lord is doing a marvelous work here, and we are so grateful to be a part of it.
Once again, we are so grateful for you, your prayers, your support, and your love. We are one body, and linked together. You that partner with us, are reaping the same rewards and blessing. May God continue to glorify Himself, and pour out His presence on this school, and the staff and students.

In His hand,
Teresa

  1. It gets better and better. There must be no doubt that you were called to do what you are doing. Jesus must be so thrilled to be using you to express his heart at this time and to know where it will lead to as time goes on. Love you both, Cary
