english weekend!

this past weekend was our english weekend with several students from around Sumperk! we had so much fun in the snooowwwyyy mountains. i love these friends! three of the students who have pretty recently become believers shared their testimonies and it was beautiful to see their peers reacting to what they heard about how God has made a difference in their lives.

bible study.

last week we started a girls' bible study in sumperk. pray for us [babu, ifka, sharkie, pavla, magda, cassie & myself] as we meet every tuesday to talk about what it really means to worship God. it's now one of the best parts of my week to meet with these girls and study scripture together [even when we come across strange words that are super hard to translate]...i just love them!

girls' party!

Josiah Venture Vision Night!!

Next Generation from Josiah Venture on Vimeo.

Novemeber 10th will be a really cool night in MINNEAPOLIS...and you're invited! several Josiah Venture missionaries and nationals will be visiting to share what JV is doing in Eastern Europe! i'd love for each of you to be able to go...really, REALLY! i know sometimes what i am doing here might seem a little abstract without seeing it first hand, but this vision night on the 10th is all about giving the big picture of what God has done in all JV countries (a great encrouagement to see the fruit of your support!) what God is doing, and JV's hopes for what God will do in the near future!

so, here's what you do:
1.go to www.2X3campaign.com
2.click RSVP for the Minneapolis Vision Night on the evening of Novemeber 10th!
(all the details are on the website)
3.come, eat dessert, and see cool people tell cool stories.

you'll hear GREAT stories and see really cool videos with students here talking about how God has changed them through what JV is doing in Europe! it's pretty exciting stuff in my opinion, so i'd love it if you could go and hear specifics about what God is doing amoung youth here and Josiah Venture's desire to continue in that.

if these videos stir your heart even the tiniest bit...i'll think you'd love to be a part of this event!!
