"I don't think the way you think. The way you work isn't the way I work." God's Decree. For as the sky soars high above earth, so the way I work surpasses the way you work, and the way I think is beyond the way you think." - Isa. 55:8-9; The Message
Dear Friends,
Summer is upon us & our busiest months are here with our ministry running in full steam preparing for three camps- one in Slovakia & two in Serbia.
We'd welcome your prayers as you spend time meeting those who will be involved in the field with us this summer as we challenge the students to Think Again.
Thank you for your encouragement, prayers & financial support. May God bless you with His joy & pleasures.
Mike
Intern Team
We are in week four of the 12-week JV internship program. Things are going well for our team. We completed the JV intern-training week, spent a week in Serbia promoting camp & now back in Slovakia promoting & preparing for camp in Slovakia.
Pray for:
Anka, Ryan & Lee Ann - for protection, strength, health & discernment as they give their lives & time for Christ & to the students this summer.
Presov team
This summer is going to be a "bitter-sweet" moment for me as this will be the last English camp I will do with the PO team. I am so excited for all this team has accomplished & look forward to seeing how things go with them this summer & the months to come.
Pray for:
Peter & his team as they serve boldly & walk with the students who will come to camp this summer & after camp. Pray that the Lord will move among the camp in a mighty force that captures the hearts of the students to experience Christ in a personal way.
Celebration team
We are grateful that Celebration Church from Blountville, TN will serve another summer with the PO team. Michael Robison will lead a team of nine from Celebration to teach English, walk alongside the PO team to serve, build relationships, & share the love of Christ to the students that attend this camp. Praise God, our camp is full and will have 115 participants at camp!
Pray for:
Michael and his team to have safe travels, for them to be prepared to serve alongside the PO team & that each member experiences Christ in a brand new way that changes their lives for ever.
Novi Sad Team
Mark Daniel will lead his team for a second year of pioneering an English Camp in Serbia. This team has a lot of courage & determination to share their relationship & best friend with their classmates, neighbors & friends.
Pray for:
God to protect them, & take away their fears, doubts & worries. Being in a country that claims all other religions/denominations outside of the Orthodox Church is a cult tends to wear on them.
S. Mitrovica Team
Bora & Mika will co-lead this team in their first English Camp. They are a passionate group who desires to serve & love students within their community.
Pray for:
This team as they boldly go out into their community to promote camp among a culture of Orthodox strongholds & ideals. That students will see something different among this team, want to come to camp & experience God with open hearts & eyes.
BlackHawk Team
Huge praise as this team was created & is being developed these last few months. Ben, a former intern of ours last year, will lead this team of 6. May they come together as the body of Christ & serve God well in Serbia as they help the Novi Sad team.
Pray for:
Unity, protection & strength as this team prepares to serve this nation, team & students that is much different then in the states or Slovakia.
