The past eight weeks have been some of the best in our entire seven years on the road. We just completed 52 meetings and the anointing has been awesome. God has done many great and mighty things. From the Baptist church in Flint, to London Ontario, to Ithaca, New York State, to Altavista, Virginia, we did 38 meetings. We left for Germany and Scotland on the 10th of May to begin meetings on the 13th. Unfortunately, due to visa problems, we missed the first revival in Ludwigsburg. Revival in Hof Germany  (See full report - Click Here) What a special time of blessing and refreshing we had at Germany for Christ Ministries with Pastor Watson and Erika Kluttz. We stayed in a historic village called Bad Berneck, in a house about 250 years old. It was interesting to think that generations of people had lived here before us. Pastor Watson, although born in the USA, is of German descent. His wife, Erika, was born in Germany, but lived in the USA for many years. They felt the call of God to Germany to pioneer a Spirit-filled work there. I met Watson in Toronto, at Evangel Temple, in July '97, and he asked me to come to his city, Hof ( pronounced Hoaf as in Loaf ). Hof is about 40 miles from the Czech Republic border and about 150 miles from Berlin. We were not sure what to expect, since it was virgin territory and with the added disadvantage of the language barrier. There are about six Pentecostal/Charismatic churches in a radius of about 150 miles and only one church has been exposed to the current revival. This is an area that needs pioneering. Some villages do not have a single church. Many of the people do not attend church at all, even if there is a church. We found the German folk hungry for the touch of God. Our interpreter was Ado Greve, a pastor from the southern part of Germany. He was coordinator for Reinhardt Bonke's European Missions for seven years. What a blessing, he did a great job. Many came each night and were touched. We had about 16, first-time conversions (25 in total) during the four days we were there. We had a number of folks come from East Germany who were mightily touched. These meetings have opened the door for us to return to do extended meetings in Hof and elsewhere.   Scotland  (See full report - Click Here) The trip to Scotland was our first. It was wonderful. The country was beautiful, with rolling hills and little villages every few miles. The people are extremely friendly, polite and helpful. We were particularly blessed by the food, which reminded us so much of our home country, South Africa. We had two meetings in Peterhead, one in Aberdeen and two in Fraserburgh. We had no idea what to expect. Our contacts were James and Margaret Cameron, who have been exposed to the Revival for some years. The meetings, although short, were a real blessing. The Holy Ghost moved each meeting and people were filled with the power of God. Many had to be helped out of church. We did a total of eight meetings in Germany, and five in Scotland. God bless you.
