It's 11:15 PM Czech time so this post will be rather short. Ed and I enjoyed accompanying Bronek to his conversational English lesson. We met with Adam and Tadek at their place of work for a 1 1/2 lesson. Tadek owns a company that specializes in currency trading and exchange. We learned about their families, hobbies, and business. It was a facinating conversation.
This evening I shared from Mark 10:35-45 on Servant Leadership. There were at least five pastors and 40 people in attendance. It was a much larger turn out than I had expected. The picture above was taken at the training seminar. Pastor Marek is the person closest to the camera on the left. He is the pastor of the Brethren Church in Trinec.
Sharon accompanied Cindy to her English class and talked about life on a farm growing up in Iowa. Sharon and Cindy also spent some time in prayer together, walking around the neighborhood where their new church is located. It has been so good spending time with Cindy in the Czech culture.
Continue to pray for us. We have two more training sessions tomorro; one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Pray that what we have to share about casting and implementing vision, and strategic planning will be helpful to the churches here. Pray for clarity of communication as we speak through an interpreter. Tomorrow evening we will be meeting with some of the business people from camp, many of whom do not know the Lord. Pray for that time of interaction. I will be preaching on Sunday morning, so pray that God would speak His truth through me.
The Luebe's and Pagel's feel honored to be able to represent New Covenant Bible Church on this trip. Thank you for your prayer support.
