Andrew van der Bijl, a young Dutch missionary was invited to attend a
Communist Youth Festival in 1955 in Poland. In his suitcase he had a
couple of Bibles meant for believers in Warsaw. What he found behind the
Iron Curtain was a Church in desperate need of encouragement and
Bibles. This is when God called Br Andrew, as he is now simply known,
through the words of Revelation 3:2, "...be watchful and strengthen the
things which remain, that are ready to die." The vision was born.
