Name that car!

Last week at the festival they started with an old timer car show. Now these are European old timers, you have probably never seen some them before. Some of these cars look like they were in the circus used for the clown act.

I hope you enjoy the pictures and that you can name that car!

I have no ideal what this is, but the owner looked like he was driving in style!

How would you like to be in this driving down the highway next to a Hummer?


Photobucket
 This is definitely the economy mode. I was really waiting for a bunch of clowns to jump out!


Photobucket
Okay! Everyone knows this one!

Photobucket
This is a European Corvette!


Photobucket
This one is space age. A true visionary designed this car!


Photobucket
 One thing you see a lot of in Croatia is Mercedes!


Photobucket
 See! I told you so!


Photobucket
The other car you see a lot of is Volkswagen. They are everywhere.


Photobucket
I just had to include these old timer motorcycles.

Festival!

After 7,000 tracts, 1,200 John and Romans, and several hours standing in town I'm officially tired. But I can say that it's a good tired. We had such a wonderful time standing in town and being a witness for our Lord and Savior. After three days in town our presence was certainly known. Many people now have a chance to escape the fires and torments of hell. I'm so encouraged by all of our people who came to stand in their home town to let people know that their is a Savior who loves them.

There was nobody saved that we know of, but so many were reading the tracts and John and Romans, and I'm sure somebody's going to get saved!

Ministry update!

OK I know I haven't blogged in a really long time, and I'm really sorry about that! I want to get back in the habit so I thought I would start with a ministry update. Lately I have been really busy and I praise the Lord for it.


We have officially moved the church plant in Varazdin into another building. We have found a place to rent in a very good location. The landlords want to sale the place and they have given us the option to buy it. They even said we could pay it off within two years. This is not usually an option in Croatia. For now I told them we will wait and see what God will do.

Since we have been in the new building there have been visitors almost every service. The landlords have also attended almost every service and they told me that we were an answer to prayer. They have been searching for truth and they believe God sent us to them. I believe God just may be involved in this move.

We opened the building up with Friend Day, and we had many visitors and dinner on the grounds. It was a great service and wonderful way to open the new building up!

Our Church has literally flooded this town with Gospel tracts. Every Thursday and Saturday we are in the square witnessing and distributing literature. It's almost comical now how many people pass by and say, I've already got one, some even say I've already got several of those at home. We are all excited that we are here and making a difference in Varazdin!

The Church in Cakovec is also doing well. We have had a new family come consistently and our vans have been full. Many of you know that a dear Brother in California purchased two vans for our ministry. They are already full and quite possibly we will be running a van and a mini van to one of the villages. Many of the kids want to bring their friends!

This week they are having a festival in Cakovec, and we will be there several hours a day witnessing and passing out tracts. I'll try and keep you all informed of how it goes.

Thank you all for praying for our family and the work in Croatia!
