Tag: Germanic Cluster
A recent report states that the former East Germany is now considered one of the least religious places in the world. TEAM BERLIN (GERMANIC CLUSTER) asks for intercession, as they work in Berlin, the capital of this area. Petition the Father to send more laborers to join them in this effort. Intercede that hearts will soften and that the gospel will penetrate this very dark spiritual place. Ask that those who seek to share the Good News will do so with boldness.
Castles, churches and crucifixes are visible everywhere in South Tyrol, Italy. Overall, the people enjoy a high standard of living with little unemployment and a low crime rate. A group of prayerwalkers from the GERMANIC CLUSTER give praise for the opportunity to explore this area and to “pray on site with insight” for the people here of whom the majority are German-speakers. Through a conversation with a policeman, some of the prayerwalkers learned that the people have few needs and that drugs and alcohol are the main problems they have to deal with. Other members of the group discovered that segregation exists between the Italians and Germans living in this area and one German waitress described the Italians as being “strange and different.” Although the people have few physical needs, their spiritual needs are great. Intercede that their eyes will be opened and that the lies of the evil one will be dispelled. Petition the Father to call out workers to share the Good News with these German-speakers. Intercede that the South Tyroleans will realize that the Son is interested in a personal relationship with them and not in religious traditions and rituals.
Members of the NATIONAL TRAINING TEAM (GERMANIC CLUSTER) are rejoicing with the angels in heaven that on Apr. 19, F. prayed to accept the Son, as his personal Savior! He has been attending a small group and the worship services and plans to be immersed in the lake, when the weather warms.
The high mountains, wide valleys, and scenic lakes that characterize the landscape of South Tyrol, Italy attract many tourists. These visitors come and go throughout the year, enjoying all this area has to offer. Although part of Italy, this region is home to around 484,000 Germans and Austrians, who speak a dialect of German. Despite being surrounded daily by the beauty of G*d’s creation, there are few believers among them, making them an Unreached People Group (UPG). During the next few days, a group of Team Prayer Advocates from Germany and Austria (GERMANIC CLUSTER) will be prayerwalking among these people. Intercede that their petitions will break down barriers and open the hearts of these South Tyroleans towards God. Ask for spiritual and physical protection. Intercede that the Father will call out workers to come live among these people and share the Good News with them.
