Time to say goodbye



On Thursday, 15 May the Kilchzimmer workers all gathered at the Hotel Erica. The occasion was a farewell meal for all those members of staff who will soon be moving to other places. Paul and Audrey Reid who have been with CEF for 43 years and most recently were head of the European Education Department are now moving back to Barcelona, Spain were they first served as missionaries many years ago.
The Mayhew family are moving to the outskirts of Paris where Philippe will be the National Director for CEF France. Suzanne Jones is moving back to Portadown. She has served as Roy Harrisons secretary for the past 14 years. Lizanne Dumigan is moving back to Northern Ireland ahead of her planned marriage to Lindsay McKee in August. She was my boss when I worked in the printing department (1992-96). She was head of the MultiMedia Department and Administrative assistant to the European Director.
All of these people have faithfully invested many, many years in serving our CEF workers across Europe. They will be sorely missed by all of us who remain. We wish them all God's blessing as they begin a new chapter of their lives. Please pray that God will soon provide those who He would have serve at Kilchzimmer in their place. If you believe God may be calling you to serve here - just drop me an email and I will be glad to get you more information!
