News from Germany: Believers Gather; Marriage Announcement

Truth seekers across Europe, particularly in countries like Germany, are increasingly embracing the message of Imam Mahdi. The community of believers is rapidly growing, with a small but dedicated group forming. The inaugural meeting took place in January 2023, followed by two additional gatherings. The most recent meeting was held on July 20, 2024, in celebration of the Imam's birthday, which featured a special birthday cake. During this event, brothers and sisters came together to share personal experiences, forge friendships, and deepen their understanding of the call.

The brothers and sisters are well-connected, and even though they are currently spread across Germany and neighboring German-speaking countries, they support each other whenever possible. In recent months, an Ansar family in North Rhine-Westphalia provided assistance to a sister from Saudi Arabia while she awaited the approval of her visa application.

A young couple, Marco Spanheimer and Samantha Hiller, who recently embraced the call, were married by the Bishop of Germany, under the authority of God and the Divine King of our age, Aba Al-Sadiq. During the ceremony, they explored the significance of the sacred marital union as expressed by Imam Ali and Lady Fatima, peace be upon them. The couple is now seizing every opportunity to deepen their understanding of the divine message and call of God.

Marco stated, "There is nothing more valuable than serving our Imam of the time, peace and blessings upon the Qaim and the Mahdis." Both expressed their gratitude not only through words but also by becoming more active in spreading the message. Samantha shared her happiness in being part of this family of God and her commitment to supporting the German Dawa.
