Together in Herrnhut


After almost a week scattered throughout Germany, our team has finally come together in Herrnhut--almost, for we are still eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Frederick family. It is so good to finally be here after the months of prayer and preparation. Before we came together, we each had our own itinerary of visiting family and friends. Norman and Kerstin and family visited different family members, as did Marissa, and I (Hannah) was in the region of the Ore Mountains taking in the serenity of the small villages, the beauty of the rolling hills, and the majesty of the forests. I also spent time with three of the students from this year’s GTS, Michael, Kristina, and Katharina. We all enjoyed our time and were very happy to reunite and at last begin our time in Hernhutt, a place very dear to our hearts. We arrived in the evening on Wednesday the 22nd and were so happy to get to see Pastor Frank. We had our first meal together as a team and enjoyed the fellowship. This morning we started off with a powerful time of worship and prayer. Norman spent time praying for several of us individually, and we were greatly encouraged and strengthened. Already, prophetic songs and pictures are being released. We had a team meeting today and went over the many details of our upcoming schedule. We are already grateful for the abundant grace that will be poured out for us as we embark on a very busy schedule. We look forward to our time of worship this evening with the Jesus Haus.

We are full of anticipation at what the Lord has in store for this time and for this region. We appreciate all of your prayers and support. Some specific ways you can be praying for us are as follows: Norm and Norman as they lead this team; strength and health for the entire trip; a greater level of prophetic insight and works of the Spirit; a full release of financial provision; and team unity of heart and mind. We love you and pray that you will be encouraged and stirred through this blog. May you feel the love of Yeshua deeply today.
