Barbara Klein, AGWM personnel in Europe who is a great Bible teacher, had a wonderful opportunity to enjoy some "fruit" recently. She was reminded of Jesus' words in John 15:16 "...and I appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain..."

Barbara had a reunion with leaders in the church in Finland who were students of hers when she taught at Continental Theological Seminary in Brussels in the 1980's and 90's. They include the Director of the Pentecostal movement in Finland, the Director of the Finnish Bible college, the founder of Royal Rangers (a children's ministry) in Finland who is now the European Director of Royal Rangers, several pastors, and missionaries.

It was a joy for Barbara to see their beautiful country and to share memories with them as well as to hear how the Lord is now using them in ministry. The fruit of their ministry can also be attributed to Barbara's faithful teaching of God's word through the years. This is fruit that remains.
