Why is it important?
When Jesus called us to love our neighbor, he gave us a task that is possible for each one of us and is also a blessing for each one of us. Many people around us might feel isolated or don’t feel a sense of belonging (maybe including us), and each one of us can bring change to that. You will see how loving your neighbor will change those things and also the relationships but also how it will give you a greater love for the people around you. It will leave a great impact and it builds a strong and lasting community for your neighbors and you as well to just name a few things. When I think back to last year and how the pandemic affected everyone around the world we saw more and more 1. the need of bringing God’s love to our local places and 2. How important it is to be connected with our neighbors. We got reminded of the call from Jesus also because our neighborhoods were the only places we could go to. So let’s all do this together starting today to take Jesus seriously and love our neighbor. We will give you a monthly tip with how to establish that relationship and love your neighbors in a practical way and then we will all put it into action with the neighbors right around us. And then watch how over time your neighborhood will change! You, me, and all of us can do it so let’s do it!!
Our tip for this month is Compliment the first 3 neighbors that you see today! Watch the video with some tips on that!
Hi our friend
How are you?
Caleb and I sadly had some health setbacks this week and didn’t recover fully yet as we hoped for. The sickness seems to really hold on and not wanting to leave. Please keep praying with us for its soon departure! I was able to keep working on things from bed and could join meetings also that way which was a blessing. Jen has been the best nurse for both of us during that time.
I don’t know if you saw the blog we wrote a wall ago or heard but the Founder of YWAM Loren Cunningham passed away at the beginning of October. Last night they had a beautiful Celebration of life for him that was so encouraging and inspiring. We want to encourage you to watch the recoding of it and be inspired how God used this man to touch many many lives including Jens and mine! watch at https://lorencunningham.com/
Like we said int the video, its always nice to get a compliment right? So lets all do the tip for this month and give a compliment to the first 3 neighbors we see!
God bless you
Markus and Jen
