About our Partnership

The FeG Church in Chemnitz, Germany and Stonebridge Church have a partnership that is the result of Pastors Randy Scheil and Bernard Millard meeting in Eastern Germany in 2006.

The goal of the partnership is to support each other as we all take our next steps with Jesus. We endeavor to learn from each other and to support each other in the work that God has planned for us.

The biblical basis for this partnership is to seek God's direction to learn how we, as a church body, as well as individual Stonebridge members, can participate in expanding the kingdom of God and being faithful to “make disciples of all nations” as our Savior instructed us in Matthew 28:18-20.
