Europartners

Recently I met with Dominique Faessler who is the President of Europartners which is headquarterd in Wetzikon, Switzerland. I had met him several years ago in Madrid where I was involved in one of thier groups. I was able to go to his offices since I live only one hour away and we had a cup of coffee and talked for a while.

Europartners is a movement of local independent organizations in Europe. It forms the European branch of Christian Business Men's Committees (CBMC) International. You can find out more at thier site. Their vision is to see a movement of God among business and professional leaders in every nation, resulting in lasting life change that continues to multiply. They have groups in quite a few countries in Europe. One thing that I like about the organization is that they work hard to develop leaders from the host countries.

Their mission is to present Jesus Christ to business and professional people in Europe; enabling them to manage their business according to biblical principles.

Thier strategy is:

Prayer - praying and expecting the Lord to work in lives
Relationships - Building trust and friendship
Outreach- Presenting Jesus Christ and taking opportunities to witness
Visiting - Following up on people and helping them in their workplace
Investing - Spending time with people to help them discover God in their lfe
Discipleship - Helping believers to grow in Christ and join a church
Equipping - Teaching believers to apply biblical principles in their daily business

If you are working in Europe in the marketplace you may want to see if they have a group in your area.
