What we experience with God

A God encounter

Who actually will show up is always a surprise. But that night we invited people for a worship service with lots of chances to encounter Jesus.
One person stood out: A guy in his biker vest with various patches listened to the testimonies about the Holy Spirit and the love of God closely. When Beate from our HELP team in Vienna finally made an altar call to receive the Holy Spirit, he suddenly found himself lying on the floor - just like many others who encountered Gods’s tangible power in that place. But something had suddenly changed: His heart was filled with joy and he felt, that a burden was lifted from his soul. And the best part: That very joy stayed - not just for a refreshing while, but for days and days and would leave him.


That night in Pattaya we just wanted to create a vessel for the Holy Spirit to be welcomed and treasured in our town. And the Holy Spirit knows us so well, the Bible says the Spirit of God searches our innermost to see, how we really mean it. That also means God knows very well, what we need. And in His love, He loves to give it! Refreshment, strengthening or simply a lasting joy in our hearts.
