Dear Friends,

We are happy to report that travels this month have been wonderful.
Courtney attended a conference on the Internet and Evangelism and was so excited to see what groups like Campus Crusade for Christ and HollywoodJesus.com were doing in using technology to reach out and share the Truth of Jesus.

With a quick turn around to Germany, for strategic planning with our team.
What a blessing to all be together and to dream about what God wants to do through each of us and our ministry. And yes, Krista and Alex survived at home.

We are still traveling a bit this weekend meeting with 2 mission committees sharing the vision that God has placed on our hearts. We bought a projector and are excited to use it to illustrate our words. Please pray for us.

On Saturday May 7, we’d invite any of you who wish to come help us with some house projects in preparation for putting it on the market. We’ll be painting, pressure washing, cleaning etc. Free pizza lunch included. Just reply to this e-mail if you want to join in the fun.

Prayers for May:
1) We have been experiencing unusual stress in our parenting and in our marriage. We know this is Satan trying to discourage us. Please pray for supernatural protection and that we would be united in patience, communication and direction.

2) We are going on a family vacation this month with Grandma and Grandpa Roes and Aunt Gina to the land of Mickey Mouse. Please pray for a sweet time together. You can imagine their mixed joy at seeing us follow the Lord to a far away place.

3) Pray that after a month of traveling, we can pick up our momentum to begin meetings again and that above all God would be honored in our support raising efforts.

Thank you so much,

Courtney, Krista and Alex

Fahrt

Some how I got this fixation on the German word “fahrt” which you can find on a lot of signs for. Its the American Youth Worker in me that will never leave. Enjoy!!!

These are pictures around Mullheim (where the eDOT and Greater Europe Mission headquarters are in Europe) and Kandern (one of the places we may live when we move). There are also some pictures of places in between.
