We had our last concert tonight in Allmersbach at the Allmersbach Church of God. This morning, we sang at Crossroads International Church currently holding services on the European Theological Seminary's campus. The church congregation was very receptive and responded very well to the music. In all of our eleven concerts there have been several individuals come to know Christ as their Savior. All of our concerts have gone very well, but more importantly, the Lord's presence has settled in our midst and done great and mighty things.
We sang in Freudenstradt at the public market square in the middle of the city last night. It is estimated that there were about 1,000 people reached in this concert, most of whom were not from the hosting church body. The host church, Crossroads International Church, set up a table at the concert with free Bibles and information about the church and by the end of the night, all of the Bibles had been taken. The church was very pleased with the turn out and the choir got the chance to sing in a public market square, doing ministry in a very non-traditional way. It was the experience of a lifetime.
Tomorrow, we will go to Strassburg, France with some of the students from ETS. Everyone is looking forward to the experience. Please continue to pray for the choir as we travel for the remainder of the tour, and finally home to the US. While our concerts are finished for the tour, our ministry is not. We have all learned a lot about what it really means to be a living reflection of God's love on this tour. Our ministry has not only been through our singing, but also through our interaction with our hosts and those interactions may be some of the most important for our witness. Thank you again for your support and prayers. See you soon in the United States!
