me and some friends have been visting a communtity of „the sisters of Mary“. This is a protestant community of about 120 women who live completely by faith. they actually besides little things that they got as a present. So everything – really everything they have is provided from God. The land the buildings, food, shoes…..
It was good to meet these humble women and hear about experiences of how one way of community works. It was great to be there. As I told you there is a lot of people interested in living in a community of believers…
the sisters of mary have for a example a daily meeting to pray and sing. everyone has a different task to do in the community….
and they have different things like services with clear teachings on endtimes and repentance.
also this week there will be a coptic believer from Cairo, Egypt talking about communities of believers at our church. So I wanna think more about that and know how the LOrd leads me personally and leads the people from my church on. I always loved living in communities and I think we learn the most as we live in communities of believers – even though it means death to self in some ways.
It is a good way to learn to love each other like he loved us, so that the world will know us by our love!!
Good night*
