Another quick update

Handing out Bibles is going well, people are wanting to talk and often will find someone who can speak English so they can communicate with us. The American team also does a mime to music called "The Reedeemer". They have done it near a railway station and in the park and everytime people gather and watch and accept the gospels. Even reading them as we walk away.

On Saturday we visited a concentration camp/museum. It was a powerfull reminder of what man without Christ is capable of and the horrors that many people knew about but where not bold enough tostand up against. God gave me a peace and as we walked around the camp words of hymns came to mind. There are many people who die a spiritual death every day. I pray that people are bold enough (with Gods strength) to stand up and speak out the true hope we have in Christ.

Church Sunday was amazing. It was in both Polish and English and in the evening we all gathered for more fellowship and a bonfire. There was a strong sense of community and the people at Villa Ella (where we are staying) have seen the love and care the team has for each other. It is a powerful testimony.

I have been struggling a little with culture shock this week but nothing too major. Every day brings new blessings so things balance out. Thank you for all your prayers and support!
