Gerhard  & Karin Schmitzer

Born 1943, I found to Christ in 1973 as an exchange student in the US. There I was exposed to a movement with prophetic and apostolic emphasis. Back in Austria I had the choice to go back to religious tradition or to keep the vision I experienced. Years passed until I met Franz at a house church and out of this group Exousia Christengemeinde (Exousia Christian Fellowship) in Graz/Austria developed.

From time to time God spoke prophetically about my calling to the Balkans. In 1991 I began to minister in Slovenia and 1999 in Bosnia on the Balkan. A ministry team was formed which operates now under the name B.L.A.S.T. which means Balkan Loving Apostolic Serving Team. This team operates under the leadership of Franz Lippi and under the supervision of Alan Vincent.

My calling is to the nations,  as an apostolic and prophetic ministry with the expression of being a shepherd who builds foundations.

I have been married to my wife Karin for twelve years and our son George is nine years old.
