An update and thanks from church planters moving to Macedonia:

Thank you so much for your prayers towards us finding a house in Macedonia. With great pleasure and thankfulness to the Lord that we can announce that last week we signed a contract. We praise God after many visits and coffees!  

When we were talking with the owners, the wife said that she had been 'reading' her turkish coffee pot with a lady who knows how to read these things (an Islamic custom for knowing the future), and she told her that they would make an arrangement with people who would come from outside. Her conclusion was that the lady knew how to read the future.

There we were listening to this story and in the background the Imam had started the call to prayer which comes from at least  13 mosques around this city of 50,000 or more people. We said we don’t believe in such things but that God is in control of our lives.

Deep in our hearts we knew that this is the time to move in Macedonia and have a Christian presence in this town where there is no church, no evangelical believers and no missionaries (until the 1st of August!)
 
Thank you again for standing with us in prayer. We value you very much!

God has been very good to us and we believe He is going to be each day.
