Austria. Since then - in 1990 - he has been working in his new home.<\/p><p>\nHe was already active as a leader in various areas in his home congregation, the Anglican Church. In the process, the focus of his vocation increasingly came to the fore: to help people in prayer and conversation so that they reach their God-given goals.  <\/p><p>\nAfter various trainings and internships, the core mission of Elijah House - transformation and reconciliation in service to individuals, families, communities and beyond - began to take a large place in his heart.  <\/p><p>\nSince 2019, he has been part of the Elijah House Global Leadership Circle, a team of leaders responsible for the 12 Elijah Houses worldwide.  <\/p><p>\nWith his years of ministry experience, insight and wisdom, he is a sought-after preacher and speaker on socially relevant and tense topics.

In the ministry of inner healing, liberation and transformation, she accompanies people who want to build God's kingdom in their own lives and the lives of their fellow human beings with love and authority.  \n<p><\/p>\nAn important aspect of their ministry is the prophetic training of Christians to deal responsibly with the diversity of the prophetic ministry. She has completed several training courses herself.\n <p><\/p>\nDagmar is also part of Austria-wide prayer initiatives and leads a prophetic intercession circle at Elijah House. Their vision is to bring Christians from all denominations together to stand up for the nations in prayer.  \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3720e64 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3720e64\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3abf5d2\" data-id=\"3abf5d2\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e0d718b elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-accordion\" data-id=\"e0d718b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-accordion.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\" >\n        <div class=\"elementskit-accordion accoedion-primary\" id=\"accordion-6a4de397b5dc2\">\n\n            \n                <div class=\"elementskit-card \">\n                    <div class=\"elementskit-card-header\" id=\"primaryHeading-0-e0d718b\">\n                        <a href=\"#collapse-f9638446a4de397b5dc2\" class=\"ekit-accordion--toggler elementskit-btn-link collapsed\" data-ekit-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#Collapse-f9638446a4de397b5dc2\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"Collapse-f9638446a4de397b5dc2\">\n                            \n                            <span class=\"ekit-accordion-title\">Simon &amp; Dagmar<\/span>\n\n                            \n                                <div class=\"ekit_accordion_icon_group\">\n                                    <div class=\"ekit_accordion_normal_icon\">\n                                        <!-- Normal Icon -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"icon icon-down-arrow1\"><\/i>                                    <\/div>\n\n                                    <div class=\"ekit_accordion_active_icon\">\n                                        <!-- Active Icon -->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"icon icon-left-arrows\"><\/i>                                    <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n\n                            \n                                                    <\/a>\n                    <\/div>\n\n                    <div id=\"Collapse-f9638446a4de397b5dc2\" class=\" collapse\" aria-labelledby=\"primaryHeading-0-e0d718b\" data-parent=\"#accordion-6a4de397b5dc2\">\n\n                        <div class=\"elementskit-card-body ekit-accordion--content\">\n                            <p>Simon and Dagmar met in Graz\/Austria in 1990 and after their marriage decided to be trained in the USA by John and Paul Sandford and the Elijah House team to follow God's call to full-time ministry.<\/p>\n<p>In 1995, they returned to their home country as new parents and began their first training courses in German-speaking countries.
