A generous person will be richly blessed, and whoever gives drink will themselves be refreshed.
Proverbs 11:25
Hello, I’m Daniel Klippenstein from Barntrup. I’m 27 years old and have been given the privilege of serving our Lord here in Bolivia with Arche for the next two years. Mainly as a caretaker, looking after the grounds and facilities.
You are welcome to read about how I grew up and how I came to faith under ‘Former Staff’. I’d be happy to tell you how I came to be here for a longer period this time.
When I returned last time after those two months, my desire to serve God on the mission field for the long term – if He had a place for me there somewhere – was confirmed. This was followed by discussions and prayers with my parents, our mission director and various friends.
In March 2024, there was another building project, which I was once again able to take part in. By that point, the discussions and prayers were already underway, so I came here to Arche with my eyes wide open. Perhaps doors would open here. When our church leadership flew out for the inauguration of Arche, it became clear once again in our discussions that there was a definite need for workers to take care of maintenance work at Arche. So we included Peter in our discussions and prayers, and soon afterwards our whole congregation as well. The congregation was willing to pray for me and support me on this journey. And so, on 4 December 2024, I set off for Bolivia.
