Roger & Gaynor Ridley in Switzerland Report

Prayer Update

October 2007

Roger & Gaynor Ridley

Praise Points

A relaxing and refreshing 10 day holiday at the beach from 29 September- 9 October.

Three other leaders have been appointed within Mosaic Basel/Lörrach - David, Amanda and Christian.

Erwin McManus spoke at a gathering of Mosaic Alliance Europe in Zurich at the end of September. It was good for us to get together with like minded people and be encouraged in this way.

A group of 3 couples and 2 children visited for 10 days from Texas. We were encouraged by their visit and also were optimistic about their input and what they learnt about our ministry.

We are continuing to make good contacts, particularly in Basel and at the English Club ‘Centrepoint’.

A surprise visit from Gaynor’s niece Bethany and her husband Jeremy (both Doctors from Perth, but travelling through Europe for 4 months). They were with us 2 nights.

For the back prayer and friendship we receive from you all in Australia - thank you.

Prayer Points

Wisdom as we continue to move forward with Mosaic Basel/Lörrach and being true to our calling (as evangelists and outreachers) with what we are trying to do here.

Roger will be speaking at the FeG Youth Night on 16 November, the topic being “Reaching Out” - what it means to be sent out.

‘Fridays at Galerie Weibel’ continue and although we aren’t getting huge numbers (average 4-5 people) we are forming good friendships with those who come regularly and particularly the Galerie owner Fritz and his 24 yr old son Adam (studying to be a lawyer).

Winter seems to have arrived a tad early and we would value your prayers for continued good health.

The Texas team spoke at 2 small schools, followed us to places were we meet folk and led a Texas event, pray for the follow up of their contacts.

That some young people who attended the Texas Tour event will be interested in joining Mosaic as we do not yet have youth in our team or meetings
