We arrived home from camp yesterday after a beautiful drive through the Croatian countryside and unpacked. This morning half our team met with the church in Krapina while the other half joined Todd Dick's church in Mursko Sredisce where Mark preached. Here in Krapina, Kieth and Tracy Anderson shared their testimonies. There were many tears as Tracy shared about the amazing work that God has done in her life. Tom preached from Romans 1 about Paul's passion for preaching the gospel and identified four motivations that can enable us to have the same passion.
1. The gospel itself is the power of God for salvation.
2. The wrath of God is being revealed.
3. God is already declaring the knowledge of himself to all men
4. God is not receiving the glory He deserves because of the ingratitude of people.
After the message Emily and Bethany sang Amazing Grace together. We then shared communion with our Croatian believers. It was exciting to know that though language separates us our common salvation unites us and we can share communion together.
This afternoon we are enjoying our Sunday afternoon with local and missionary families who are hosting us for lunch before the craziness of our second week begins here. Please pray for our kids club this week that many Croatians children will attend and hear the love of Christ for them.
