In Netherlands OM runs two drop-in centres for teenagers and young people in Delft and Emmeloord. There are lots of immigrants in these areas. This means they have moved to Netherlands from other countries and cultures. Many of them are lonely and long for some attention and care from adults. About 30 to 40 teenagers come regularly to the centre. They come from many different ethnic backgrounds: Marocans, Turks, Somalians, Antilians, and Dutch kids. OM is working with Youth for Christ to run these centres. Many young people from Muslim backgrounds come along and get to hear about Jesus’ love for them for the first time. They had a number of teenagers come to a special Sunday evening service for young people. They heard testimonies and watched a music video about God’s love. The centre hopes to continue to run more special services like this one.
