Dear Friends,
We are just returning from a glorious few days in Greece with all of our Young Life staff around Europe! We haven't been able to all meet in person since the beginning of 2020, so this was a very long-awaited conference. It was so good for our staff around Austria and Germany (pictured above) to learn, laugh and just BE together for a few days. On the last day we had some time as a region to share what we were taking back home with us- here are some of the responses:
- I want to pray more for the city I'm reaching
- "Give all that you know of yourself to all that you know of Jesus"
- Encouraged to see so many European nationals on staff around the continent
- I was so exhausted from giving, and now I am full.
Many of these staff are alone in a city, working to build a team to reach young people where they are. Just a few days in community with others doing the same thing can make a huge difference. And can I tell you something great? I LOVE the staff in our region!! These are some of my favorite people in the world and they are going to change this culture!
Big love to you from Munich today!
Emily + Ryan
