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!

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!





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


Photobucket
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!
