Our team in Vysoke Myto!!!
This
photo was taken a few days ago in Vysoke Myto ... a town in the Czech
Republic of about 12,000 people. The teens are "posing" like statues!
This photo was taken the day before we left for camp. We've been in
camp five days and it seems like fifteen! Our days are filled teaching
English which is challenging and rewarding. The people are AMAZING and
... one of our teen members led a young man to Christ on Tuesday! This
is the first time they've had anyone except Christ at one of the
English camps! And after seven years on the field this is the third
person the missionary we are working with has seen come to Christ, so
there is MUCH celebration! Tonight we all signed a Bible to give to
Vojta, so we are going to present it to him tomorrow. He is a wonderful
young man as are ALL the people we're getting to know!

Our team members have poured themselves into EVERYTHING!
We've
heard feedback from the missionaries that our team has done better than
any other at connecting with the people. The Czech people's hearts are
very open to us which is AMAZING! We show Jesus by having fun with them
and loving them to pieces!
Bekah hard at work.
One
of the COOOOOOOLEST things is we got to meet Andrea ... who will be
coming as are exchange student for next year. She's AMAZING. And we
love her already.
Here is a "sisters" photo.
