You are invited by the Dutch Baptist Union, a key nation of the European
Community, to join them in sharing Jesus with
their neighbors, friends and family members in their breathtakingly beautiful
country.
This is a pilot project for the Dutch Baptist Union, in partnership with
International Commission.
Two churches, one in the central-Holland city of Hoogeveen and another in the
coastal city of Heemskerk, have invited Believers of
the World to come join them for a
week of Evangelism and outreach. Each church is using a plan based Operation Andrew for prayer
and preparation: every member has been asked to identify ten lost people for whose
salvation to pray each day, they are cultivating relationships and engaging in
spiritual conversations. You will be going to a place where the power of the Holy
Spirit is expected and being called upon every day!
You will make a difference! There will be people who will hear the gospel and
receive the Lord if you go and that may never hear if you do not go. We must respond
as the door to the Netherlands is beginning to open wide. The Lord is calling…. Won’t you say yes?
The Dutch are waiting.... Won’t you go?
Your servant for Jesus,
Jerry Byrd, Western
Europe Area Coordinator
