Three thousand teenagers from 22 countries share the love of Christ with people in Oldenburg.
During TeenStreet Germany approximately 3,000 teenagers from 22 countries flooded Oldenburg, Germany for an afternoon of evangelism outreach. In groups, the teens sought to share the love of Christ with the people of the city. After a week of learning about what it means to live by faith, not by sight—the theme of the week was BlindSight—the teens, ages 13-17, took part in activities to share the Gospel. Some groups picked up garbage in the parks while others wrote Bible verses on the streets. One group sat in the city centre wearing signs that said, “I believe what my neighbour to my right believes.” Each had the same sign except the last person in line, who didn’t wear one. The group wanted to intrigue people into asking questions. One group of Finnish girls went from house to house, giving flowers to people. At one house a man answered the door and was overjoyed to find a group from Finland standing on his doorstep. He told them he loved Finland, had been there 25 times and spoke Finnish. He invited them in to chat with him and his wife, and the group prayed for the couple. Both the couple and the group were moved by the experience. Thank you for your prayers for TS Germany. Please pray for the teenagers as they go back to their homes and schools. Pray that they can be lights to their communities. Please pray also for preparation for TeenStreet 2009.
