Day 12 – Service with Tulln Congregation

We met at 8:15 in the lobby of the hotel where our sister Petra guided us to our tour bus. She explained that we would be driving for about 45 minutes to her congregation in the town of Tulln a picturesque farming area along the river Danube.

Brother Werner Satzer led the group which included a brief video presentation of the congregation’s histrory; a demonstration of the Convention Invitation offer; and a heartfelt singing of song #58 – Searching for Friends of Peace.

This Austrian couple had their hands full as we prepared to leave for the field.

Evan and I worked with Johan and a brother who went by the nickname “Mili”.

They gave us this card with the presentation written out in German. I practiced with my partner Mili who then said I was ready and gave me the first door. I was able to give the presentation 4 times (lots of not at homes).

We worked in a neighborhood of beautiful homes with lovely gardens.

It was such an enjoyable morning in the ministry and although my partner did not speak any English, we used Google translate to get acquainted. I learned that he had been baptized for 42 years.
