Alpha Course

Hello everyone!

This past Thursday, 20th September, we hosted our first Alpha dinner. Praise God, through leaflets and personal invitations we had 23 people come. Most of the people were either just new christians or curious people wanting to know what Christianity is all about. Thank you for all of you who have been praying - and please continue to pray that all the new people will come to know Jesus as their personal Lord and Saviour through these next 10 weeks of Alpha.

Love from the Euliano's

Power House - Kids Hour

Hello Everyone! God is so good. We are excited what God is doing among the children in Glasgow. Every Tuesday night we get together in 'Power House Kids Hour'. There are 20-30 kids that come faithfully each week. All children coming are from the community around the church, all non church kids. They are learning how to worship God and are excited about it! Praise Jesus! Please keep praying for our Tuesday nights, and that we get more helpers to work with the Harvest that is plentiful.

Be Blessed! The Euliano's

Life Church in Bridgeton, east side of the Glasgow city

Hey everyone! Sorry we have had some technical difficulties to get our blog working, but we are back in business! Since we last updated our blog, lots of awesome things have happened!

Most of you have heard that we were given a church building and we are now revitalizing a church in East side of Glasgow city. The church is called Life Church. We believe that God wants to reach the people of Scotland with the message of hope and deliverance. Scotland, with its rich history of revival, is now a land of hopelessness and darkness. With only 2% of it’s 5.1 million people attending church on any given Sunday, hundreds of churches have closed within the past few years. Many of the churches have been acquired and reopened as recreational facilities, nightclubs and mosques...

The transition happened in the end of April and almost right away we came to America for the month of June to raise more awareness of what has been happening in Scotland.

We had a great trip back in the States. New contacts were made and we felt that the trip was a success. Our wheels have been spinning since we got back. Meeting with people from the church, connecting with the children and doing outreach to the community has brought us into a new level of pastoral leadership. Almost right after when we arrived back to Scotland we hosted a team of 11 people from Arkansas. We had a very successful week. The team organised a children crusade on three days, and on the fourth day we did a family day in a small park area right behind the church building. Praise God, about 20 kids gave their lives to the Lord for the very first time in their lives! On Saturday there were about 50 kids just playing and having fun on our family fun day. It was a great way to meet some of the parents.

Well, we have taken quite a few minutes of your time as you have been reading our blog. We appreciate your time and ask that you would keep us in your prayers as we continue our new exploits in Scotland.

In Him,
Paul and Heini & kids

HELLO From Scotland!

-God is good! In January we had started looking to buy a house, and we finally were able to purchase our own. This is a great change from renting. We will be moving into it on Monday, April 16. We are looking forward to that!

-At Harvest we are preparing for Hamilton's largest Easter Egg hunt. We will be in a local park doing games and giving out food and prizes. We have 5,000 Easter Eggs, and will use this day as an evangelistic outreach raising the awareness of Harvest Christian Fellowship and the love of Jesus.

Please pray for April 7th when this event will take place.

-The youth are doing well. Our youth 'life crew' bible study is flourishing. We have had a lot of positive feedback from parents. One parent saw her 12 year old praying in her bedroom crying out to God on her own. Another parent said that their two teenage girls would not be where they are at with God if it wasn't for IMPACT Student Ministries. This is only because of God, and we give Him all the glory for it.

Love the Euliano's

Another Win!

Praise God, we have another successful 'Second Saturday' report. On Saturday, February 10 we had done several outreaches. A group of people went to the shopping plaza and handed out 500 free roses (along with drinks and donuts), another went into a parking garage and payed for 100 peoples' parking fee. If that is not enough, we also had a work crew putting a garden in at our rented church office. This really made an impression on the office management and general office workers.

2nd Saturday’s ministries is all about reaching people through practical acts of kindness with expressions of God’s love. We desire to see people live their dreams, and make better decisions in life. Three primary goals are to mobilize people and build church confidence, bless the city, and create a “buzz” that people know there is an active, fun, Spirit filled church that they can be part of. Reaching the community is something for the entire family to be involved in (old and young, small groups, children, youth etc.). There are no limitations for who can be part of this ministry outreach. Some of the things that our 2nd Saturday’s teams love to do are gift hand outs, clean the city, gardening, painting and decorating, etc.

Soon to come is our 2nd Saturday’s blog on www.harvestonline.co.uk

Love,
The Euliano's

2nd Saturday's January 2007/ Life Groups

Dear friends, it's great to be back with you. WOW! January has been exciting with new things happening!

This past January 13th we had our 2nd Saturday's outreach that turned out to be a great success. We launched out three different teams to invade the town of Hamilton with practical acts of kindness. One team did a free car cleaning service, the second team payed for drinks and cookies in the local Subway restaurant, and the third team payed for people's car parking in the local parking garage. This was a blessing to everyone who gave and received on that day! Praise God for His goodness!

We have also started a marriage life group in our home. Every Tuesday evening we come together with couples from our church who are interested in marriage growth. It's been a time to invest biblical life truths into the heart of God's people.

Lastly, we started 'Life Crews' which is geared toward our youth ministry. We are going all out to make an IMPACT that is going to last forever. This is practicing Acts 2:42: devoting ourselves to the apostles teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread and prayer. Youth come together Monday nights and Saturday mornings for 'all out' bible study, prayer, and fellowship.

Many blessings -
Paul, Heini, Josiah & Gloria - be praying for us!

Happy New Year!

Hello everybody - Happy New Year!

We have had some technical problems trying to update this blog, so sorry that the news are coming out a bit late..We had a wonderful Christmas season. Our outreach to the town centre was excellent. Harvest and few other churches in Hamilton joined together and we handed out 500 'Christmas pies', traditional Scottish sweets, and the response from the people was very good. Here is a picture of some of the church members singing christmas carols during the outreach. So, thank you for praying! God's love touched many people this Christmas.

The Christmas day was nice and pretty relaxing. Josiah loved opening up he gifts and Gloria was more interested in the wrapping paper. Now we are getting back into the normal routine. Paul is taking some youth to a fun outing today, since they are still off from school.

We are believing that this year 2007 will be an extraordinary year - as far as seeing God's power move! Be encouraged - God is so good.

In Him,
Paul, Heini, Josiah & Gloria
