We had an awesome time connecting with Czech pastors and leaders in Tabor-Chotoviny area of southern Czech Republic in October. We celebrated 11 years of doing these meetings this year. The presence of the Lord was there to minister to each pastor and couple in a powerful, tangible way. Special thanks to Pastor Tom & Sharon Arnould, who joined us along with their two sons.
We recently returned from ministering in the Czech Republic and France along with Satia’s parents, Galen & Janet Nation. We met face-to-face with pastors and church leaders in central and southern Czechia and a pastor in France. The word the Lord spoke to our hearts was from Acts 15:41, where Paul and Silas “went through Syria and Cilicia strengthening the churches” (NKJV). We encouraged and strengthened pastors, leaders, and churches in these secular and atheistic nations. We sensed a strong emphasis from the Lord to focus our ministry on building stronger marriages and families, which we did.
We recently received a testimony from a pastor of a lady in Teplice, Czechia, who received one of our 360 Life evangelistic flyers from someone just as she got on the bus. As she sat and read it, she said the Gospel message suddenly made sense. She contacted the church for prayer and gave her life to Christ. This is just one example of why we do what we do. Thank you for partnering with us to reach people.
We just finished our pastor’s meeting and a general conference in Czechia. It was a powerful time of ministry and connecting with Czech pastors & leaders. The above video captures our recent meeting and a few scenes from previous years. Special thanks to Pastors Tom & Sharon Arnould, GNC, Yukon, OK.
We met with just a few of our precious friends and ministers in the Czech Republic this summer. It always blesses us to travel around the country and preach and see and hear what the Lord is doing in their lives and ministries. God is at work in Czechia!
We were able to travel to the Czech Republic in August when they suddenly opened up to US travelers. We felt that it was important to meet face-to-face with a number of pastors, as many had been through a challenging year. We had some powerful church meetings and anointed one-on-one meetings with numerous pastors and leaders around the country.
In these times of global uncertainty, we are thankful that we have discipled and trained Czech believers and leaders who can work in that nation regardless of whether we are there. Also, we have an Internet Bible school and our 360 Life outreach websites that provide resources to believers and unbelievers alike. This last month we have been working diligently editing and posting short 3-4 minute evangelistic videos to various Czech social media sites to share the Gospel in these unique times. Czech Republic began a National quarantine two weeks earlier than the USA and has begun opening up, so people have been relying on the Internet more in recent months. To this end, we have added twenty-six short-length videos to Czech social media websites sharing the Gospel. Our Czech ministry websites continue to evangelize and teach throughout this unprecedented crisis. We are continuing to update and add website content to minister to Czech people strategically.
As we celebrate Easter, we remember why Jesus came to earth, died, and rose again: To set all men free from the bondage of sin. It is a gift available to all if they will receive it. Pastor Billy Joe Daugherty shares a concise message on this 360 Life segment that has been subtitled into Czech and is on the Internet.
We wanted to quickly update you that we safely made it back from Czech Republic this last week. We left two weeks ago and had been monitoring the Coronavirus situation in Czechia before we left, and everything appeared calm and under control with no bans on European travel. Suddenly, when we arrived, Czechia declared a ‘State of Emergency,’ with daily, rolling changes. By God’s grace, we were always a day ahead of changes: having meetings, traveling around the country, etc. before it was banned. Finally, foreigners were ordered to leave, and we were able to get out on one of the last flights to London that week.
We were in peace the whole time thanks to God’s grace and your prayers. We felt like it was a “God moment” to slip in and minister to key leaders dealing with church issues before borders closed. Our Czech ministry websites continue to evangelize and teach throughout this unprecedented crisis. We are continuing to update and add website content right now to strategically minister to Czech people.
We appreciate your prayers and support in this time. Together, we are making a difference!
We had a great time connecting with Czech pastors and leaders from across the country. The Holy Spirit ministered to each person in a powerful way. We are so thankful for each of these faithful servants of the Lord.
