Tootsie Rolls

 After writing an article for an RA's magazine upon a request. We have been receiving packages almost daily for a month. These packages started appearing and they are filled with Tootsie rolls for the Roma people. The packages have seemed to stop now. It has been over a week and no more packages have arrive.

We want to say thank you on behalf of the Roma people who have truly enjoyed the Tootsie rolls from America!!!!

Here are a few photos. We will post more photos in a couple weeks after we have a Roma family camp. At the Family camp we will distribute Tootsie rolls daily to many Roma people. They all like the candy, young kids to old people.

Thank you all for your generosity and love!!!

Some Promo Ideas

So I'm working on some promo posters. These will maybe be helpful for people who are preparing to come to Poland to work with us. Hopefully they'll be colorful and useful posters for raising awareness of future trips and support for those trips. Let me know what you think! Or if your group would like a specific poster designed, please let me know!

Szaflary, Poland Roma visit

 We traveled from Krakow to south Poland near Slovakia to a Roma village for a visit and prayer time. We had a great time of fellowship and prayer as we were blessed to see a piece of Heaven. There were in our group, 2 Chinese women from Malaysia, a Polish women and her Colombian husband, and 2 Americans, and some of the Roma people of Szaflary, Poland. We prayed to God in our own native languages.  5 different languages, cultures, colors and customs, but we are all united in one spirit. Jesus made this all possible!!!!!

Thank you Jesus!!!!

Pray for Gustek and family

Pray for Gustek and Kasia and their 8 children as they move to live in England.

They have already found a church in England when Gustek went to find them a home there. We are praising God they will have a new church family. Pray they will grow stronger in the Lord and they will share what Jesus has done in their lives here in Poland.

Z Bogiem

Update on MiHalina Gil

MiHalina and Andrzej want to personally thank everyone for their prayers. MiHalina's bypass surgery went very well and she is recovering greatly. She is in a rehabilitation facility for 2 weeks, then she can return home. (Mihalina is standing in the back with a red sweater on and holding her grandson.)

Everyone is praising God for a successful surgery and answered prayer!!!!

Thank you,

MiHalina & Andrzej Gil and family

Update on MiHalina

MiHalina had a quadruple heart bypass today. She is in intensive care and we all are waiting to see how she pulls through. The Dr.'s said they will tell the family tomorrow evening. Please be in prayer for MiHalina and for her family as they wait in suspense.

The Roma people we work with here, usually never go to the hospital for any surgery. Old fears of communist times and a lack of trust, cause them to just live life until they die at home. This was a big step for this Roma family. They are mostly believers in Jesus and they are praying and trusting in the power of God for healing and life. MiHalina is a believer in Jesus!!!!

Thank you for praying!!!

Christmas Eve dinner at Roma's home

 It is a Polish tradition and for the Roma people also, to have a big feast on Christmas Eve.

Our family has been invited for the past 4 years to join a group of Roma in Zeslawice for the feast.

 We have a time of prayer. Bible reading of the birth of Jesus and then the feast.

This year our family was joined by a young women from Egypt named Laura.  Laura spent the evening enjoying fellowship with all of us.

Thank you Jesus, for allowing us all to fellowship in remembrance of your birth!!!!
