Time of Refreshing, Lesin, Switzerland

I have come to learn over the years that true Joy comes through serving others. Rebecca and I had the wonderful privilege of being a part of a team serving Bill and Emogene Kaiser who are the directors of Time of Refreshing. This ministry is to be a blessing to American Missionaries serving in Europe. About 100 missionaries gathered together at the Classic Hotel in Leysin to be refreshed in spirit, soul and body. The Hotel and food is paid for by the generous donations of churches and individuals in the U.S. that want the missionaries to know that they are not forgotten. What a joy to serve these awesome Servants of God. As they arrived to the hotel, we valeted (parked their cars), carried their luggage, prepared special gifts for their rooms. In each conference, rose gifts were given to some attendees. Needless to say, each missionary was greatly blessed. The Word and Worship was awesome as God's presence touched hearts and lives. The testimonies given by several missionaries told the story of how much this ministry is needed and appreciated. Some received strenght to continue their journey, others realized that they are not alone. Others realized that they truely are loved. What a joy it is to serve!
