Concert!

Our concert was a smashing success!

Friday

The last few days have been busy! We've been continuing to do outreaches and service projects.

The schools have been continuing to have amazing results! Today Jerimiah and Nick went to a class of 13 and 14 year olds. Nick didn't feel confident with that age group but the Lord decided to use him mightily anyway, and at the calling of the Lord, they gave an altar call at the end of speaking to the class and about 10 of the 30 students gave their lives to the Lord! The teacher and many of the students were glowing with joy.

Yesterday the rain finally let up enough for the city to give us the go ahead to start on painting the railing of the fence along the river. In two days we managed to get the entire fence primed and the top and the posts painted blue and the horizontal bars of the fence white. We might have pushed through and tried to finish the fence too had the Lord not slowed us down with a sudden downpour ten minutes after we broke for dinner. The Lord must have known we needed rest.

We've also been continuing to clean up and prepare the santuary for our big concert tomorrow night. We've made a ton of progress, it is going to look really good for the concert, we're pumped and excited about the opportunity to share the Lord with the youth of Poland!

Auschwitz

Today our class went to Auschwitz. It had a powerful impact on us--its very different to actually see it in person compared to having read about it or learned about it in school.

Katowice

Today we had an outreach in Katowice, which is a big city about 2 hours away. We were intially a little disappointed when we got to the park and it was pouring rain and that threw off our plans. But that tends to be how God works! After we threw away our plans, he gave us new ones. We were totally blessed to spend time in the upstairs of this neat little restaurant in prayer and worship. And we were able to do our outreach despite the off and on rain and off and on downpours. We had clowns, skits, a parachute game for kids, balloon animals, testimonies. At the end of the day it felt like quite a success and we celebrated with pizza.
