Bibles have arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Praise the Lord, our Bibles have finally arrived! A few days ago we were able to go and pick up 4,500 New Testaments from Zagreb, Croatia.

We have been able to pass them out to our people and many of the bus kids who come. Everyone received a Bible on Sunday! It was a joy using it on Sunday knowing that all had the same Bible as I did. For the new converts in Church we were able to even say, turn to page so and so and they could find the text and read a long with us.

I want to say thank you to all who have given to this project, and ask you all to pray as we continue onward with the Old Testament!

Špancirfest - update!


The festival is still going on and we have been there most every night. So far we have passed out about 12,000 tracts. We have got to talk to several people about the Lord and our presence has been made known there. Every night we come home tired, but it's a good tired. The kind where you know you have stood up for Jesus in the midst of darkness.

The festival will continue through the weekend and we will continue to stand in between heaven and hell for these precious souls!

Špancirfest!

Every year in the city of Varaždin they hold what they call Špancirfest. This is a big festival and they estimate that in 10 days there will be over 250,000 people walk through the streets of our city. There are booths and food vendors set up all along the city streets. There are concerts and shows for the people who attend. It is a very festive time for all who come to Špancierfest.

For us it's much, much more than just a festival. It is an opportunity to pass out 1,000's of tracts. It opened Friday night and we were able to pass out 2,000 tracts. Then we were there Saturday morning and passed out another 2,700 tracts. Then once again Saturday night we were able to pass out 2,200 tracts. We are going to try and be there each evening to stand in between heaven and hell for these people. 

Please be in prayer for us as we try and keep some of these people from the fires of hell!!!!!!!!

More than a bus ministry!

Not to long ago we were able to purchase two 9 passenger vans for our bus ministry. These vans have not only doubled our bus ministry, but they have helped us to reach out to other cities in Croatia with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Last Saturday we took 27 people to the far south east side of Croatia to a town called Osijek. This is the 3rd largest town in Croatia. It is in an area that was hit really hard by the war. God allowed us to stand up in this town and declare that there is one who can save any soul. We were able to pass out about 5,000 tracts and around 1,000 John and Romans. We are still waiting to hear the official total from Bro. Sam.

A really big blessing was that we had a new family come with us and they passed out way over 500 tracts!  We are excited that they are learning that it is their responsibility to stand up for Jesus, and reach the lost!

Brother Rich had two saved! Praise God! That's two more people who will not taste of the flames of hell!

After we passed out tracts and witnessed we went to Vukovar. This town was one of the hardest hit during the war. Many people were killed here, and there were many mass graves found near this town. We were able to visit many places that were constructed to remember those who were killed. I couldn't help to think about how many of these people dies and went to hell.

The Croats placed their flag on top of this tower and the Serbs tried to shoot it off.

I think some needs to explain to Mathew how that thing is supposed to work?

After Vukovar we headed home and arrived about 10:30. Everyone was tired and worn out, but we can say that it was worth it all. Heaven will reveal one day of how many people were saved because of a Gospel tract that they received.

Thank you all for praying for the ministry in Croatia!
