Members of the WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN CLUSTER in the NETHERLANDS thank all of those who interceded for them, their volunteer teams and the outreach they had for Queen’s Day on Apr. 30. For the first time in weeks, they had perfect weather. Seven families came to their first community meal and they had a great group of volunteers, who worked hard and served with joyful hearts. Two of their volunteers had an opportunity to share the Good News with the lady, who has opened the doors of her café for their craft club and for this first community meal. The cluster members could truly see the Father’s hand at work throughout everything.
Today is Queen’s Day in The Netherlands – a huge national “party” day. A member of the WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN CLUSTER in the NETHERLANDS shares, “It always provides opportunities to be outside with our neighbors and we will again this year be setting up a tent in the midst of festivities to celebrate. A volunteer team will also be here from North Carolina to help us and we will be having a community dinner BBQ. Please petition for warm, sunny weather, many opportunities to connect to our neighbors and that through the BBQ, we will have a good start to the monthly community meals.”
Rejoice with members of the WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN CLUSTER in the NETHERLANDS that the Father answered their petitions to be able to set up a tent on Apr. 30 at the beach pavilion where all of the Queen’s Day festivities will take place. They write, “Not only that, but the only other organization that has requested permission to set up is a partner church. The event planners have essentially asked us together to take over the festivities for children for that day! This is much bigger than we had imagined or planned. Along with activities for kids, we will be giving away free gospel literature. Intercede that the Father will do a mighty work, that people will receive the literature gladly and that this will mark the beginning of a movement of God here on Ijburg (our island).”
