Sharing the real meaning of Christmas in Linz

OM International
In December 2009, in collaboration with local churches in Linz, Austria, Philipp Eschback (Leader OM Austria), his two sons, and over 20 church members donned Santa Clause costumes in an effort to share the real meaning of Christmas on the streets of Linz. They sang on trams, interviewed passersby, distributed literature and engaged in many interesting conversations, seeing some people willing to receive prayer. "It seems that not all Austrians are clear that Christmas is actually a celebration of Jesus' birth!" said Philipp. "So we would value your prayers that Jesus would become known and loved in this land as we share the truth about Him in many different and creative ways."
