July Missions Report
NLM RECAP
Our first tour has officially come to a close! 11 days and 18 shows across Germany, Austria, and Czech! Over 10,000 people were able to hear the gospel in a unique and relevant way! Every show had many people respond to start a relationship with God and many more heard the gospel and were moved and challenged by the message! I was able to have many wonderful conversations with people, build into their lives, and communicate to them how much the Lord loves and wants them! I am still in contact with many of those I met and have worked to build and maintain relationships!
This tour was not all easy! People protested our shows, threw beer bottles at us, we had quite a few creeps and many people trying to disrupt the message of our show! We had a month and a half of intensive rehearsals and 11 days straight of setting up a massive stage - doing 1-2 shows and then tearing down. Between shows we had to drive many hours to the next cities while sleeping on church floors along the way. We had our fair share of problems that arose such as mechanical malfunctions, bruises, cuts, and problems - and yet God still moved!
We have two more tours to go! Next is Romania in August, and Argentina in November! Between these trips I will be back and fourth from Germany for some technical work for the next tours as well as preparing and fundraising for what’s to come! Thank you so much for your support and prayers!
LOOKING FORWARD
Although our first tour is done that doesn’t mean that things have slowed down! At this time I am currently in Germany serving at our home base in Krogis! Due to the work I am doing I was asked to continue to serve here for the next two months! This is such exciting news but also means that I will be unable to continue photography work while I am here in Krogis over the next months, until I can return home after our Romanian tour; which ends in September! While I am here in Krogis I will be doing work at our missions school as well as doing weekly outreach in nearby cities such as Dresden (which is where this video recap is from!). I am so excited to continue this work that I feel God is calling me to do!
HOW YOU CAN HELP
Doing this work is so exciting but it also takes a big step of faith - trusting that God will provide financially for me to continue this work! As I continue my work here I still must continue to pay my bills in America such as rent, car insurance, phone bills, ect. which unfortunately does add up! If you feel that you would like to support this missions work that I continue to do here, I have a few ways you can help! Below I have a few different amounts you can donate via credit card or through ACH bank transfers! You can also donate any amount using cashapp ( $edendemell ) or venmo ( Eden-DeMell )!
More important than any financial donation is your prayers! If you want to join our prayer page on facebook to stay up to date on our teams immediate prayer needs as we tour, here is the link to join that group!
