This is Herman VanVuren (pronounced "Er mon").
Our team met with Herman at the Dwaze Zaken and it was a huge highlight for us.
He is a part of the “Jesus Freak” movement in the Netherlands which is planting house churches across the country. He has already planted a house church in Utrecht and is now looking to plant additional house churches in other cities including Rotterdam and the Hague. What our team thought was so cool about Herman is that he does not have any formal seminary or theological training. He simply has a heart for God and a desire to see the lives of his friends and neighbors changed by Jesus Christ.

Thanks to everyone who came out and supported us last night.
We had a great time hanging out with you
and we are deeply blessed by your generosity!

Our team is excited and ready to go.
Can you believe that in less than a month
we'll be on our way to Amsterdam?

Please continue to pray for us as we raise the rest of our support
and prepare to be immersed in a different culture.
Pray that we would each have many opportunities to share God's love,
serve the people and the city,
and see Him at work as He reveals Himself to us.
