This past week from January 19-22, 2010, I (Joey) had the opportunity to go to my second European Pastors Conference that is held annually at CC Siegen, which is just 40 minutes away.
These pastors, assistant pastors, and others come predominately from Western Europe. I would say that this is something that I definitely look forward to each year. It is so great to get together with these men and simply listen to what it is the Lord is doing in and through them, what their struggles are, and what their victories have been over the past year. Although it takes some time to hear from all of them, it is so amazing to simply sit in the room and be a part of it! What a blessing!
This was from the beginning of the conference, when worship started
On the first day of the conference, we had the opportunity to pray for 6-7 men who are stepping out in faith and seeking to start a new church plant in Europe. Many of them are in Germany, which is pretty exciting! It is awesome to see the kingdom of God advancing through these men! This picture above is a picture of pastors praying for Gunar Kapp who is seeking to start a church in Essen, Germany!
This years guest speaker was Pastor John Spencer who is from CC Gulf Breeze. The Lord really used him to speak to each of us in a radical way. He focused on most of Luke chapter 12!
Here is a picture of a break out session with the assistant pastors
Senior Pastor break out session
This is a sweet picture. Here are three pastors praying over a brother (sorry that I forgot his name) who will be taking over CC Hannover. Peter Will (far left) has been the pastor there for around 20 years or so and is going to be handing it over to a son-in-the-faith!
