GLOBAL PARTNERS AROUND THE WORLD
Tim and Rebecca Hawkins – Germany
We returned a couple of weeks ago after five weeks in the States. During our time, we attended leadership meetings with Cadence in Colorado, spent time in Michigan with family and for my dad’s funeral/memorial service, and then spent some time with the parts of our family that are living in St Louis. As you can imagine, there were times we experienced both deep loss and great joy. In all of it, we are encouraged by the genuine hope we have in Jesus Christ.
Since returning to Germany, I made a quick trip to England to visit our house and ministry there. Tomorrow Cadence International is starting a mission-wide “Selah,” a three-day time of rest and renewal for all staff worldwide.
We are in the final stages of preparation for our biggest Europe Field event of the year, our annual Staff Conference. At the end of May, 50+ Cadence staff and family members will be spending a week together at the Elim Christian Center in Poland. Our staff is scattered in nine different locations around Europe. The annual conference gives them a chance to reconnect with each other and with Cadence. Please pray for these missionaries and their families, that they will find rest and encouragement in their time together.
We are excited to be able to partner with Elim Christian Center, our host for this retreat. They are a wonderful ministry in their own right. You can check them out at elimcenter.pl/ and get a glimpse of where our staff will be spending their week together.
