scott's euro missions journal 2007 #3

dzien dobry supporters,

well we finished our time in kosice, slovakia with a flurry of activity. we
started with a school assembly at a gypsy school in this village of run-down
high rise apartments called Luneck 9. Lance Lanning the Youth Alive
Director in Montana (an outreach to high school students), is traveling with
us and he led the assembly...giving the students small talks about purity,
dreams, treating each other with kindness and Jesus is life...these were
interspersed with songs and drama and funny videos on the projection screen.

The principle of the school loved it, and said they had never had anything
like that ever come through their school. We really gave the students a
chance to hear aobut Jesus and how to enter into a relationship with Him.

When we finished there we traveled to the square for our second outreach
there. The church has a huge sound system that they set up, which makes our
band sound terrific. The band is really good...especially when each of the
students in the band come from a different city, and we've only been able to
practice once. During this hour long "concert" we perform the dramas and
give testimonies...finishing with a small talk on how to enter into
relationship with Jesus.

Many of the students from the english classes have come to watch these
performances, and they tell us they will come later the night to the
send-off party at the evangelical church here.

so we grab a quick bite to eat and head to this church for the last rally.
the place is fairly full with people age 12-35, including quite of few who
have never been to this church before. At the end of the message by Lance,
6 students stand to recieve Christ...i will tell you more of their stories
later.

We had a good party, then raced to the train station. we got there a bit
late and so we only had 3 minutes to scamper through the station and hop on
the train before it pulled away from the station. 7 long hours through the
night and we ended up here in Krakow, Poland.

Thanks for all your prayers!!!


scott
