Seitdem \u2013 1990 - ist er in seiner neuen Heimat t\u00e4tig.<\/p><p>\nBereits in seiner Herkunftsgemeinde, der anglikanischen Kirche, war er in unterschiedlichen Bereichen leitend t\u00e4tig. Dabei r\u00fcckte der Schwerpunkt seiner Berufung immer mehr in den Vordergrund: Menschen im Gebet und Gespr\u00e4ch zu helfen, damit sie an ihre gottgegebenen Ziele ankommen. <\/p><p>\nNach verschiedenen Schulungen und Praktika begann die Kernaufgabe des Elijah House - Transformation und Vers\u00f6hnung im Dienst an Einzelnen, Familien, Gemeinden und dar\u00fcber hinaus - einen gro\u00dfen Platz in seinem Herzen einzunehmen. <\/p><p>\nSeit 2019 ist er Teil des Leitungskreises Elijah House Global, einem Team von Leitern, die f\u00fcr die 12 Elijah - H\u00e4user weltweit

ihrem Erl\u00f6ser. Von Anfang an offenbarte sich Jesus ihr auf verschiedenste Art und Weise und f\u00fchrte sie durch Seine Stimme. Nach einer Zeit als selbstst\u00e4ndige Physiotherapeutin erhielt sie eine klare Berufung in den Vollzeitdienst mit ihrem Ehemann. \n<p><\/p>\nDiese tiefe N\u00e4he Gottes in einer vertrauten Beziehung mit dem Vater, dem Sohn und dem Heiligen Geist m\u00f6chte sie auch anderen vermitteln. In dem Dienst der inneren Heilung, Befreiung und Transformation begleitet sie Menschen, die Gottes Reich in ihrem eignen Leben und dem Leben ihrer Mitmenschen mit Liebe und Vollmacht bauen wollen. \n<p><\/p>\nEin wichtiger Aspekt ihres Dienstes ist die prophetische Ausbildung von Christen zu einem verantwortungsvollen Umgang in der Vielfalt des Prophetischen Dienstes. Dazu hat sie selbst mehrere Fortbildungen gemacht.\n <p><\/p>\nDagmar ist ebenfalls Teil \u00f6sterreichweiter Gebetsinitiativen und leitet einen prophetischen F\u00fcrbittekreis im Elijah House.

Since 2022, Sheena has gained valuable experience in Christian life counselling, mentoring, conflict coaching, and teaching with the international missionary organisation SIM (Serving in Mission) and its partner organisation, PeaceWise.<\/p>\n\n<p>Sheena lives with her husband and three daughters in the south of France, where she is also active in various areas of the church (including prayer ministry and the mothers' group). She is so grateful for the blessings that the Elijah House ministry has brought to her personal relationship with God, her family, and her acquaintances, and for how it has helped her cope with the current challenges facing our society. She would like to share this blessing with people of all ages and backgrounds by offering prayer ministry, mentoring, and coaching via video conference in German, English, or French. <\/p>\n\n<p>Let's
