New Believer from Nidzica Baptized

 

This is a shot of the first new believer from our work in Nidzica being baptized. Her name is Wiesza and her baptism follows 1 1/2 years of work, visiting in homes in Nidzica! Praise the Lord with us.

New Church Start in NIdzica

 

Here is a shot of the outside looking in, it's winter and it's cold! The room seats about 25 to 30 tightly but we don't have that many people coming yet so there is room to grow.

Nidzica

Today is the first worship service in Nidzica. This past year Sean & Marcin started a home group here. We have prayeralked and held community oureach parties with CBC Jonesboro AR. Seeds have been planted and now the sowing begins. One lady has already accepted Christ and will be baptized soon. This building we are renting is quite small and we only have to pay electricity for rent. There is no running water so that won't cost( there is a toliet but we will have to use the old bucket of water method). There is no heat so we are using space heaters. It is in the 20's here today so we will definately use them. But, you know what people are excited about it. There are a few believers who have no church nearby and there are many seekers interested. We are excited to see how God works. Pray that many will come and hear the good news.

Operation Christmas Child Olsztynek

This year we did two Operation Christmas Child outreaches in Olsztynek. There were 70 kids plus adults. This time we had so many come, we did two different services. In cooperation with Olsztynek Baptist Church, we were able to give each child a bag of goodies, Scripture and food. Our friends Piotr & Asia put on a wonderful puppet show that clearly presented salvation. As you can see the families were very blessed and thankful.

Polish Winter Gray Revisited...

Hi and thanks for the funny comments... forgot to mention that this is an acutal picture of the sky on the day in question. The sky had been that color for 4 days and is in fact that color again today.

Polish Winter Gray

 

New color to love, Polish Winter Gray. I here it was going to be a new Crayola color but people became so depressed during test groups that they scrapped it.

Argh...
