Berlin, Germany

We spent 2 nights in Berlin. Our team did ministry in Alex square and we took the team on a cultural tour of the city. Rainer has been doing youth training with Curtis which has been great. Lindsey has been to lots of different grocery stores in many countries with various currencies. We have been getting to know our team more and more every day.

Horsens, Denmark

We were able to do a performance in the campsite in Horsens and a lot of people turned up, with lots of children, who always love the puppets and balloon animals. Students got to share about their faith with locals and tourists staying at the camp ground. The next day we went into the city and performed twice in a city square. The students had a lot of great conversations.

Every night after doing ministry, our team shares about their experiences. Sometimes we are telling people about the opportunity to have a relationship with Jesus, and it might be the first time they've ever heard that. Sometimes we are praying for people we meet, and other times we are planting seeds and getting people talking. God has opened many doors for us. One student on our team shared that in Horsens she led a women in a prayer to accept Christ!

I've been really (pregnancy) tired and one afternoon I pulled my mat out and feel asleep as soon as my head it the pillow. Rainer took this picture with me and I had no idea.

4 Countries in 1 Day

We have been through England, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany and now we are in Denmark. No Royal Servants trip has ever been to Denmark. It's a beautiful country. Here are some photos from the past few days:
