God is Working!

It became very evident today that God is here and his work is being accomplished! In our morning meeting, we had many praises that were offered, describing the ways that we are seeing God move. Edyta and Zbigniew (the pastor and his wife) told us all that they are just amazed at the openness that they are seeing this year. Never before have they had this many conversations about God so early in the week. People are very curious and are saying that they are interested in learning more about God. Keep praying for more of these conversations and that we will be aware of those who are open.

We had "teen and young adult night". The worship, activity, and dinner were all separated. Katherine Robbins, Katherine Snuffer, and David Tonkinson did an excellent job leading worship! I (Annie) gave my testimony and Kelly gave a message. Everything went very smoothly and hopefully an impact was made. For the activity we based it off of the new show "Minute to Win it". It was hilarious and very fun. For the adult service, Mark Henderson gave his testimony, which I heard was great!

The Bible studies, English classes, and Conversations groups are really starting to get going and it is fun to see the Polish-American relationships develop! Also, the kid's ministry is going great! Some of the American children have been doing skits, which are a lot of work and demand much preparation. They are going so well, but pray that the kids will have the energy to keep practicing! It is so encouraging to hear the young children talk about how they are willing to help in anyway. Micheal Henderson has been helping me plan for my English lessons, even though he isn't in my class. Doreen said it was time for bed, but Michael insisted that he needed to help me because "he is being a good missionary". It really helped me to remember that our time here is all about sacrifice and helping others. Please pray that as we get tired, we can remember our goals!

Tomorrow, I will post the exciting pictures from Minute to Win It and hopefully some skit pictures! Thanks for all the comments and prayers. I read them at our morning meeting and everyone was so excited to hear from you!
