Yesterday we have been presenting FUSION ministry at Cirkev Bratska in Banska Bystrica.
In the service Josh Howard (our new missionary that will work with me on the natinal fusion) and My family were introduced as the ones who are comming to help with this ministry in their church. As the answer of this churches prayers. We have had 50 minutes to present the FUSION.
I started with the passage on great commision from Mathew 28:18-20 and ended Mathew 9:9-13 as the motivational preaching and than we took turns on explaining the pieces of Fusion.
After church ended we had "only members" meeting and explained more in details and had question and answers time. There where good questions for some no answers... like who will be another 2 memebers (except Draho) of the leading team. They decided after few another questions about timings and "rushing" but also understanding the right time in to united decision that church sees this direction as the answer from God for this church. The lack of workers is just the matter of 3-6 weeks and that if we do not have enough workers now then we might start Fusion in Januarry 2012.
On their voting (cca 27 people out of 48 BB mamebers) all voted FOR Fusion in thier church. No one against.
I already have 3 people for first training that will be in czech 24-26 june. This week I need to work on more people to be able to attend the training even if they will just be volunteers.
So this is all good news and this has been just another moment of "aprooval" that God is leading us in this way.
We also looked the house in Salkova (BB) and we feel with Zuzka that it is the right place to be moving twards. This house is for sale with the property of 800 square meeters and it has great potential. The house is old as I (37) and is in good condition. We could start living in even right now but needs some work to adjust for our needs. Well the main part that we are praying now is the price. They ask for 120.000 EUR. We could get around 80.000 EUR for our flat but we are short of 40.000 EUR plus 15.000 extra for new windows, floors, kitchen, bathrooms etc... This house came after us looking for flats and apartments and many visits and frustration where we decided that we will stop searching "it" but will wait that God would send something in our way. After fast and prayer God has sent one man to paint the CB BB church as he is a friend of one of the peopole from that church and Slavo the pastor found out that he is selling the house. So that is the house we have been looking at. (If you have questions ask me more) We are praying and have to make decission till this wednesday (8. june) then there are a lot of other people who wold like to buy it even for the price of 145.000 EUR.
We did went to BB a day before Sunday and the main reason was that Johanka would meet all her new school friends and her teacher as she will start in her first grade at Narnina elementary school.
So these are some news from this past weekend.
Pray for the workers in CB BB church. Specificaly for 2 main leaders.
Pray for the rest of the church in entering as needed voluntaries
Pray for the house decision, the wisdom in understanding Gods leading. And to see how would God want to provide for this need.
