We had the most wonderful time at the Youth Camp. What a joy for us both to be amongst young people again. We have returned home tired but very happy.

Moving ahead

Things have been a bit quiet during August with many of the team away due to the summer holidays. We have met though and continue to make progress and move forward. Seven of us met Sunday 12 August to discuss the leadership of Mosaic Basel/Loerrach. At our next meeting on 2 September we hope to be able to appoint a team of leaders which will then free Roger and I up a little. Roger will still be one of the leaders. We also looked at a chart of the Church - Apostolic, Evangelism, Prophetic, Teaching and Pastoral and realizing as Christ followers we all fit in to one of these categories. It was a great meeting. A small group from the team have begun to meet to put together a theological statement of what we believe. Interesting times ahead.

Tomorrow Roger and I go on the Youth Camp of FeG Loerrach for a week. We are really looking forward to getting to know the young people better. The camp is to be held At Schwarzsee which is somewhere near the middle of Switzerland and near the Alps. It will be about a 1.5hr bus drive from Loerrach. We come back on 29 August and the camp goes till 1 September. Please pray for us and for David and Simea our Youth Pastor and wife and for the other leaders of the youth.

Attendance at our first German Wedding

We attended the wedding of Gerd and Brigette Folk at our FeG German Church in Loerrach. The service went for 2 hours and was filled with much celebration. Gerd has been a missionary with OM associated with the Doulos outreach ship.

The newly formed Gospel Choir. Spot Roger!!!!!!

I love the way the couple sit facing their family and friends throughout the ceremony. I think this is a special thing to do.

The Alphorn being played after the Wedding. This is a traditional Swiss music instrument.

Mosaic Picnic

Apologies for the silence. Here is a picture of (l-r) Ilona, Laura and Roger at our Mosaic Picnic in the Dreilander Park. It was a warm day and we had lots of fun playing with the frizbie, talking, bike riding and eating. About 18 people came and went at different times during the afternoon.
