Dear Friends,
ROOM
The vision statement for our church is, “Raum schaffen für Jesus Christus” (Creating room for Jesus Christ). This photo is of the entry way to a possible permanent location for the church. We have been longing for our own “room” – a space where we could expand our ministries with immigrants, children, women, discipleship, etc. A space where we could meet during the week or in the evening. A space where we won’t have to sound the clean-up alarm because the next group is coming in at 2:00 – just as the fellowship is sweet around the long row of tables where we are enjoying a bowl of hot soup, coffee and cake. We are probably not the ideal renters for this landlord, but the leadership has had a strong sense of God leading us to this location. Would you pray for God’s provision and this possibility, that has us so excited about room.
“Room” also seems to be an issue over the ages – and of the Christmas season.
“So Joseph also went up … to Bethlehem …
He went there to register with Mary,
who was pledged to be married to him
and was expecting a child.
While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born,
and she gave birth to her firstborn,
a son.
She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manager,
because there was no room for them in the inn.
Luke 2:4-7

We are praying that you will be able to pause and take time to reflect, opening up space in your busy life for the Savior this Christmas season.
With the Joy and Peace of Jesus,
