AMERICAN FOURSQUARE MISSIONARIES RETREAT September 7 - 11, 2010

It was our privilege to organize and host 29 American Foursquare missionaries in a retreat held in Turnov, Czech Republic, September 7 - 11, 2010. Eleven couples, 7 singles and 5 young children serving in 15 countries: France, Netherlands, Estonia, Hungary, Russia, Albania, Spain, Poland, Ireland, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, the USA and 3 closed countries we cannot name. Most of us are in non-English speaking countries with no other Americans around and we often feel quite isolated and alone. So you can imagine the joy when we can meet and talk together. It had been 2 years since our last meeting. We are so glad that the majority of time was spent hearing from each missionary unit sharing what was happening in their country and in their lives and then everyone could pray for them. We also had ample free time for relationship building and having fun.
