So many have left their own country
escaping political dictatorships, wars and poverty.
A local church that offers more than just one service a week
is a great provision for those who love God and want to continue
seeking him daily, even in a foreign country.
Often it means that you have to learn a new language,
adjust to a new culture and make a strong decision not to be
offended by anything.
A great attitude is to seek the prosperity and the peace of
the city where the Lord has led you. Jeremiah 29:7
It’s no surprise that most of our churches in Europe have
at least ten different nationalities worshipping together.
I remember once in Stockholm in time of evangelism
finding a group of Chinese tourists in front of a big cathedral.
The door was locked.
They were discouraged and looking for a possible back door
to get in.
My heart was touched. This was maybe one of the few
opportunities they’d ever have to hear about Christ.
I boldly approached them and offered to explain what
Christianity is all about.
They got really excited.
I was able to lead them to the real church right in the yard
of that impressive, but cold looking building.
