Acts 12:24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.

At the Church Meeting last Sunday, it was announced that the church would be dividing into two different congregations in the near future to better serve the needs of the people that are attending. This, in part, is a solution to the increasingly cramped space that we have at the Umweltzentrum, which has served us well for this first year.

Greg and Lisa will lead a church, which will continue to be based in Prohlis. These meetings will be solely in German and they will continue to reach out to those living in Prohlis and the surrounding area. They will provide a full programme of activities and hope to increase their outreach activities to those who do not know Jesus.

Mike and Gabi will lead the International Christian Assembly which will move to a new location closer to the center of Dresden and continue to provide joint German/English meetings to cater for the needs of those from overseas and any from Dresden. The current meeting programme will continue without change. We are looking for new premises either in or near Altstadt particularly in a south easterly direction, where the International Church can gather. This should make it easier for those that travel a long way. Once premises have been secured we will let the church know the date of the first meeting.

Please continue to pray for these arrangements and for everyone in the church. Please also prayerfully consider which congregation you should join, so that you can be the greatest blessing.
