Dear Friends of Eastern Europe Renewal:

The Peace of the Lord be always with you.

Fond greetings in Jesus from Switzerland, where I am for a few more days before beginning the following travel and teaching program:

22 September - 2 Oct. England, London and L'Abri

8-12 October - Ljubljana

15-20 October - Hurlach/Augsburg Germany - YWAM

22 October - preaching in Lyssach for 500th. anniversary.

25 Oct. - 1 Nov. - Bratislava and Wien

3 Nov. - 9 Nov. - Kiev

12 Nov. - 18 Nov. - Bratislava

19 Nov. - 30 Nov. - USA

4 Dec. - 8 Dec. - Hurlach/Augsburg YWAM

Recently my preaching in Basel and Lausanne has been a series on I Peter. This has been a very interesting study, at least for me, and I have discovered some new things. After I Peter, I hope to start a series on the Gospel of Mark, Peter's student. It will be interesting to compare the two books.

My computer has been ill and some friends and brothers have been doctoring it. The web master is still in various forms of transition but hopes to get the website in better order soon. 

Mary is doing well and seems to become more and more independant and confident. We are thankful. My mother has moved to a retirement home and her house is up for sale. It will be good to visit her in November for her birthday and for Thanksgiving. 

I have accepted somewhat greater teaching and planning responsibilites for some sections of the work of SEN in Bratislava. Please pray that I will fulfill these responsibilites well. Thanks.

The wedding in Lugano, mentioned in the last letter, was wonderful! The couple have been on the honeymoon, are back and well and involved in the Church. 

My brother has finally come to Europe. His wife has Swiss family and has been before. It was great to see them. The visit brought a question to me: Has my brother become a more thoughtful, enjoyable, reasonable person or has my perception of him changed. Both possibilities are encouraging. It was a good visit.

Thank you all for your prayers and support. May the Lord bless and keep you.

Yours in Christ,

Ellis
