Last night, I met with the two elders and another person of the church to talk about our plans for Rovereto, where we want to plant a new church. It is what we call the Rovereto project, which is a part of the Trentino project for the whole province which I have written about before. Basically for the next 12 months we will concentrate on evangelistic activities in the city (monthly bookstalls, conferences and exhibitions, and cultural evenings) whilst building up the Bible study group there and getting the members at Rovereto to be more involved and more responsible for the activities there. The objective then would be, in 12 months’ time, to start a monthly service there. It is exciting to see something new like this being born, especially after almost three years working in that city and more than 10 years wanting and praying to start something there, and also the way that the church at Trento has the missionary desire to pioneer new works planting churches.
Back on the home front, we are putting my in-laws to work during their visit here, and we all (parents and children) are enjoying their presence. Pinuccia and I were even able to go out tonight to enjoy an evening (at the cinema) by ourselves, which does not happen very often.
