- Russ and Mary Ann Miller are praising the Lord for every new contact and every blessing He has
given us on this trip. He has opened many new doors to us and has guided us through each one. PTL!
Now they are heading to Louisville, KY, to attend the
Global Missions Health Conference.
Pray that they will be able to talk to representatives of many missions working in French-speaking places,
to show them books which will be helpful in their ministries. Pray that this will be a fruitful time for BLF.
- Please pray with us this week for President Doris Leuthard and Vice President Alain Berset of Switzerland.
Four languages: French, German, Italian and Romansch - are "official", with French speakers making up some 23% of the
population (although many more use it as a second language).
With wealth and material comfort often comes less desire for religion. Still, 60% to 80% of young people are open to
exploring such matters, although most are as likely to look into Eastern religions and the occult as Christianity.
Switzerland has the highest percentage of foreign workers of any major state in Europe. Some minority groups from
Latin America and Africa have more than 200 congregations that contribute to outreach in Switzerland. Other newer
arrivals are highly unevangelized. Praise God that unity is increasing between various evangelical groups and the
newer immigrant churches. Please pray for these churches as they proclaim Christ through television, radio, internet,
newspaper and conferences. Swiss commitment to world evangelization remains strong, even with its small number of
evangelicals. Pray that many there would continue to hear the call of God to serve long-term.
Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message,
so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ…
Colossians 4:2-3
