Roma wedding in Szaflary

Halina & Zbyszek were joined in marriage today. They did the civil wedding at the government office then returned to Szaflary for the Roma ceremony. It was a nice day and great time to see God join two people and two Roma clans together.

Zbyszek is from Krosnica and Halina is from Szaflary. These two Roma villages were once enemies. Jesus has changed several people in each village and relationships have been made. Today the two villages have another common bond.

Please pray for the new couple as they begin a new live together.

Saying goodbye for now.........

Janek & Rafal and their families on the night train to Prague, Czech Republic. We will miss them very much. They are going to share the gospel message and start Roma church plants for the next year. We will see them again someday.

Janek & Rafal leading worship

Sunday June 13, 2010 was the last time of worshipping together in the Nowa Huta Roma church plant.

Janek and Rafal and their families have been called by God to be missionaries to the Roma people in Prague, Czech Republic for 1 year.

Rafal has been the leader "Pastor" of the Roma church in Nowa Huta for 3 years. Janek has been the leader "Pastor" of the Roma church plant in Tarnow, Poland for 2 years.

God has raised up new leaders to fill the leadership positions in each church plant.

God has given Janek & Rafal's families a opportunity to see God at work through their obedience to go to Prague.

Please pray for these 2 families as the under go an adventure of a life time.

Pastor Billy Abrams

We are always thankful to Cedar grove baptist, Alabama. Billy has been here with his daughter Hanna to minister to the Roma people. Billy has been here 3 times now and each time he is blessing to the Roma and our family. We really enjoy his fellowship and great personality.

Here is a photo of Billy at Zeslawice with a small group of Roma believers.

Fishing team for Kielce, Poland trip

We traveled 2 hours north of Krakow, Poland to reach Roma in Kielce.

Kielce is a city of 200,000 people. 100 Roma people live there today. 28 Roma showed up and heard the Gospel message and testimonies of the Roma believers from Krakow and Tarnow, Poland.

The word of God was shared and seemed to be received well. Now it is between God and those who heard God's plan of salvation.

Please pray that God will open the eyes and hearts of those who saw and heard God's message.

Roma conference in Brno, Czech Republic

There were 6 languages spoken, one spirit and a great time of fellowship at the Roma conference.

The best event was when Janek & Rafal shared the gospel message and a Roma man from Romania was saved!!! The man in the wheel chair trusted Jesus as his savior!!!!

Janek, Rafal, Andrzej, Jacqui and I traveled to Brno, Czech Republic on Friday to evangelize and invite Roma to the Roma conference on Saturday and church on Sunday.

We are praising God for a great 3 days!!!!
