Visa and more

I've got almost everything together to apply for my South African visa. The only thing that is still standing out is the invitation from Media Village. I hope to get the visa soon so I can book a flight for January.

"The Power of a praying Teen" was translated into German and I am doing the typesetting of it. I am also working on some other things and hopefully will end everything in the coming month.

What do you think of my new glasses?

My new newsletter is there. Just before Christmas so it doesn't get lost in peoples Christmas post. Unfortunately this newsletter is in German and I will not write an Enlish version so soon, but if you want to download it anyway just click the picture above or use the "More Downloads" link on the side. To keep updated with the newest information on what is happening just keep visiting this website.

Preaching material

Johannes Came to me on Wednesday two weeks ago. In our conversation we started talking about his recources on preaching material that he has gathered over the past. He wanted to put it on CD for other youthpastors to use freely. I told him I would do the design of the CD covers and so we got going.
The production was needed for a seminar at our church the next Wednesday and also for the WillowCreekCongress that followed here in Bremen. So I also created a pamphlet explaining all the material.

I had a free ticket for the congress but I couldn't take part in all the sessions. I was very much inspired by an interview by Bill Hybles with Bono.

I have finished the intro of the TeensMag-Bible. Also the set of "40 Days of Love". Now I will start the production of a book called "The Power of a Praying Teen" published in Brockhaus-Verlag.

This week I have to finish my newsletter so it can be in the post before all the Christmas things arrive. Otherwise it will not be read. I will write about my departure to South Africa so stay tuned ... oh I always forget my newsletter is in German ... but I will translate the main points in English and put it here.

Update

The day before yesterday I received an email from Media Village. The application is through and they have accepted me as one of their staff!!! Actually this was just an other formality, but with this information I can move on with my visa and other practical things. Good News!

Media Village had planned to move into an other building at the beginning of the coming year. There I would have had an accomodation available, but now I heared that the move has been posponed for the beginning of 2008. Therefor I will need a place to stay. Of course the people at Media Village will help me in this, but still it's a reason to pray.

I have a lot to do at the moment, which is good! The company I worked for before I went on Doulos (click on Bundes-Verlag) has asked me to design the first 35 pages of their "Bible for Teens". Today is a public holiday in that region and nobody is working on the correction at present, so I will work on a DVD-cover for a friend (click on Johannes Müller).

Please also pray for more financial support. At the moment there is still not enough for me to go abroad (click on Support :-)
