Men's Breakfast
<p>Sprechen Sie Deutsch? (Do you speak German?)<br><br>Even if you don't speak German, you are invited to our upcoming Men's Breakfast on Saturday, October 19, in The Bridge from 7:30 - 9:30 AM. <br><br>This breakfast will be a "German Edition" because our speakers are coming from our partnership church in Chemnitz, Germany. Bernard Millard serves as the pastor and Josua Schulze works at the church with the main task of leading their church planting project call "The Blessing."<br><br>They will be sharing (in English) about their ministry, and how they're helping men in Chemnitz take their next step with Jesus. <br><br>Our partnership began in Eastern Germany in 2006, with the goal to support and learn from each other as we seek to accomplish the work that God has for us to do. It has been a great encouragement to both churches. <br><br>If you've been to one of our breakfasts before, you know we enjoy a hearty warm meal. This time will be no exception, as we enjoy some delicious breakfast burritos. There's no charge, but donations are accepted. <br><br>Please be thinking of a friend or co-worker you could invite to come with you. <br><br>We hope to see you there!
