We stand amazed at God's faithfulness!


Throughout the week nearly 18,000 people were exposed to the Gospel.  This is in a country with only 2 million people and 1500 evangelical believers.  Never in the history of Slovenia has the Gospel been proclaimed in such a public fashion.  
More Battle:
We are very aware that the battle is not over yet and now begins the vital work of follow-up.  Pray for us and for churches as they gather the fruit and tend the seeds that have been planted.
For those curious about faith in Jesus, we've developed a 4-week study and given them to churches in these 5 cities.

Last night Josh Patty, our team leader, was sharing with the church in Ljubljana about the importance of each believer being active in following up with those that attended.  Just before he got up to speak a woman walked into church and sat in the front row. She babbled constantly, and as he talked, she kept interrupting, speaking very loudly.  When he finished and sat down, she stood up confidently and walked out of church.  It's clear the enemy does not want follow-up to happen.

Please be praying for this crucial part of the outreach.  Pray that the church and individual believers won't allow the fruit to rot and the seeds to be blown away.

Your prayers are essential as we fight together for this country! 

Above all, praise the Lord with us for His amazing work of grace in the country of Slovenia this week!

Rejoicing with you,
~Shawn and Christena
