Even more girls are in volunteer service here in Germany. A german proverb says there are three "K's" with women/girls: Kinder, Kueche, Kirche - children, kitchen, church. How can we reach men/boys with the best message in the world? How can church be attractive to them without denying the gospel? It is a struggle - by now we only have little success here. God bless.
