Haut-Rhin

This little corner of France has been fought over and been controlled by Switzerland, and Germany at time.  You are able to see all three cultures intermingled in Haut Rhin.  This area has the smallest unemployment and many of the citizens work in Switzerland.

 Pray that the Gospel of Christ will flow freely over the border and let the Churches in all three nations  have a unity as they work together to to be the love of Christ to the people in this area.

Thank you Father for the beauty of this area and the people who live here.  Thank you for their history and culture.  Lord, we pray that the Gospel of Christ will flow in hearts and across borders.  Let all people hear the gospel of Christ and believe.  Lord, we pray that they will seek you as guide and Savior.  Lead us as we pray for Haut-Rhin France. We pray in the name of Jesus Amen

Haut-Rhin (68)

Haut-Rhin is the smaller of two departments of Alsace but is one of the wealthiest in France.  In the city of Mulhouse many are employed by the car manufacture Peugeot.  From Haut-Rhin many work in  Switzerland and live in France.  You will find the influence of Germany here in Haut-Rhin because this area has been part of Germany at times in their history.   Christmas is celebrated in a big way here in Alsace. Most of France's beer is brewed here in the Strasbourg area.  Alsace is a good mix of French and German. 

Lord,

Thank you for the influence of our past but at the same time it can bring many hurts and unhealed wounds.  Many of us carry around wounded hearts from events in our past.  I pray that people here in Alsace will see that you are able to heal our hurts and give us hope.  Lord, thank you for the influence of Christmas in this area.  We pray that during the month of December people will see you as their personal Lord, and Savior.  I pray that they will be reminded of the gift of Salvation which you so lovingly gave.  Lord, please bring your peace through your healing and through salvation to all.  We pray in the name of Jesus our Lord.  Amen
