Babies of Rock Berlin

We have written before how RB has been having lots of babies, well, here is the first birthday of Pablo and Sean Holz. We were at the party which was held outside back in April. They are adorable! Besides bananas, kuchen was also served. Lucy has had the blessing of babysitting the two little men. And Dieter went along to a couple of doctors visits to help their mom. Unfortunately, the Holzs live an hour from RB and travel mostly with public transportation. They have decided to find a church closer to home. We will miss these little guys, and their parents too;)

After the ordination

After the ceremony, Lucy and Stephi Goering gave their husbands each a book filled with notes and letters of encouragement and congratulations. These were sent to the wives by family members, friends and ministry supporters. There were also other gifts. It was a beautiful day.

God is gracious!

April 2010 Ordination

Back in April, John Goering and Dieter were appointed pastors at Rock Berlin. In this picture you see, from left, Pastor Dave Lennander, who served RB from 2005-2008; then Pastor Mark Darling, who sent the first team to start RB and who called Lucy and Dieter to RB; and Pastor Daniel Goering, who has been ministering in Germany for 20 years, and is John's father. All three men still serve RB by being advisors to John and Dieter.

Lucy keeps busy outside of RB too.

Since Lucy is also learning German in a classroom setting, she develops friendships with her classmates. Here is Lucy with two Japanese students who currently live in Berlin. Yuki and Sukara have been to our home for meals besides sightseeing Berlin with Lucy. They know that Lucy is a Christian and we hope to share more as we spend time with Yuki and Sukara.

Lucy keeps busy

Much of Lucy's time is spent sharing her life experiences with the women of Rock Berlin. Here is Lucy with two of the young women that attend Rock Berlin, Nina and Tina. This photo was taken on a walk through a park after a Sunday service. The women recognize the love Lucy has for the her Savior and for them.
