International World Changers

Our International World Changers planning meeting in Prague went great this last week!  We were really impressed with the IWC program, and with Mike Landrum and Chet Andrews, who are the leaders for our project.  The plan is to build a small playground in an area of Debrecen that has nothing for the kids, and to also do children's Backyard Bible Club-type ministry with the kids who are there.  This will be in partnership with Debrecen Baptist Church (the Hungarian church we attend), which is working to plant a church in that area.  We believe this is a great opportunity to minister to individuals and families and show them the love of Christ, and also to assist in building bridges with the community to help the new church plant.  The project is planned for July 25 to August 1, 2009.

Please pray with us that if it's the Lord's will for us to do this, that He will burden the hearts of the right people to come and help.  At this point we have no young people registered, and it's already time for the teams to be forming.   If you or someone you know might be interested in this project, you can find more information about IWC at http://thetask.org/youth/IWC/default.htm. You can also register for our project online.

You may remember us asking you to pray for our friend Tibi, who has been working in Holland to support his family.  They haven't been able to give him many hours to work there, and things are not going well at all for the family.  Please pray for encouragement and provision for Tibi, Marian and their girls, that the Lord will use this time to draw them closer to each other and to Him.
