Paul and Marian Keidel
Prayer Letter/Ministry Update
This Fall has been very busy and rich.
Paul traveled for three weeks to the US. One week was dedicated to a training event for Field Directors from the Europe Region.
The France Alliance President, Norbert Clement and his wife Lucia, traveled with Paul for another week of special meetings with partner churches in Iowa, Minneapolis, and New Jersey. Making new contacts and renewing old ones proved to be mutually encouraging for all of us as we watched people personally connect with God's work in France.
After returning to France, Marian and I received a team from the C&MA in the US to complete an in depth study of our work. Every aspect of our France team was evaluated and every team member contributed to the process. Decisions were made that will enhance our service in this country for the next five years.
The pastors of the France Alliance of churches and C&MA workers met together for four days of a special retreat. We sought to discover the priorities to which God has called us to serve in France.
Marian and I thank the Lord for the faithful prayer and financial support that you represent. You encourage us in so many ways. Thank you.

Prayer Requests/Answers to Prayer
Specific Requests:
1. Pray for the C&MA team study conference to take place during the first week of December. All of our France workers will come together for a time of personal assessment and alignment with our new strategy for the next five years.
2. Pray that the churches committed to overseas partnerships will pursue the mission opportunities that have come from these new relationships.
3. Wisdom to know how to make the difficult decisions. We must choose only the best and the good things that need to be improved or removed.

Pray.
The Alliance believes wholeheartedly in the power and necessity of prayer. We cannot “Live the Call Together” unless prayer is central to all we do—as a denomination, as churches, and as individuals.
