JuMiKo!

Last Sunday (Jan 6) I had the opportunity to be part of a team that manned a information stand at the largest missions festival currently in Germany: the Jugendliche Missionskonference ("young people's missions conference"), or JuMiKo, for short. In addition to numerous talks given by well known (for Germany) evangelical and missions speakers, there was a large missions fair where missions organizations and Bible schools (like ours) provided information for those interested in pursuing missions. Both surprising and encouraging were the amount of people who were there. During peak times, I think it would be fair to say that hundreds of people walked passed the various stands. Also noteworthy were there were the number of AWM alumni who came by--people who are currently in missions or in missions leadership. It is both exciting and sobering to assess the role played by the AWM in German missions. Thank you for your prayers . . . .
