Gathering of friends of EBM INTERNATIONAL

We say THANK YOU!

On the 16th of May we celebrated again the gathering of friends of EBM INTERNATIONAL at the evening before the Assembly of the German Baptist Union.



The host Frank Fornaçon, pastor of the Baptist Church in Kassel-West, welcomed more than 120 friends of EBM. As a member of the EBM-Foundation he was delighted that the gathering has been growing over the past years.

During the evening there were several testimonies from the different areas EBM INTERNATIONAL is operating. Missionaries from Africa, India and Latin America told touching stories from their encouraging experiences in the various churches and projects. The gathering got a very special touch because of a delicious meal and the wonderful piano player pastor Parvis Rahbarnia. We are grateful to the church Kassel-West for the wonderful evening.

The chairperson of the EBM-Foundation Elimar Brandt (3rd person from the left) was also happy during the meeting of the Foundation, that the gathering enjoys so much popularity. “In times of financial challenges it is very encouraging to see how many people identify with the work of EBM”. He challenged people to continue the support for EBM and to use the possibilities of the EBM-Foundation to donate money to EBM INTERNATIONAL.

EBM INTERNATIONAL is very grateful for all the support and the donations. Please continue to help us to fulfil our mission in Africa, India and Latin America.

And diarize the next gathering of friends of EBM INTERNATIOAL. On the 8th May 2013 we will have our evening celebration in the Baptist Church in Kassel-Möncheberg. The church is bigger and offers more space so that this gathering can grow further in the future.
