This new girl told me that she do not see her parents often as they are gone most of the time and her half-brother is now 3rd year at this special place where he is trying to get clean of the drugs. So I have asked what are you doing through the day when there is nobody at home? Well she said "I am searching for families, and I found Fusion my new family". Praise GOD for that. Tonight we had

Tonight we had an activity outside our normal Fusion activity.  We were able to use a gym at one of the schools here and had an open gym.  We played three games and really had a great turn out.  I think most of the students who are coming to Fusion were there.  We are thrilled that the students want to be so involved that they are coming to even more activities.  It is also great to see

And so we inviting youth leaders around 700 of them to come and "hop on" and have ride with Jesus, because He is doing something and we just need to

We hope that today through the concert we will see new students come to start being part of FUSION, also that some parents will come and officially agree with their children coming to FUSION. We also pray that those who have been coming for last 5 times will become the core of FUSION for coming months. We also pray that GODs Spirit will work tonight and that through FUSION there would be

The first Fusion concert was tonight!  It was fun to see the students really getting into the performance. Technically it was not the best performance, but it was enjoyable to everyone involved and to those watching.  The students really did a great job.  We had a couple solo singers a drama and even a song done by two guys who write their own music.  It was also surprising to have as many people

As we finish our fifth Fusion Rehearsal we wait in anticipation for next Wednesday when we will have our first Fusion Concert!!!  The students seemed very energetic tonight and really got into the motions of the songs.  We even had a couple new students.  The biggest problem for us right now is sickness and lots of homework and studying before exams. We still have somethings to prepare for the

Can you believe we have been having Fusion for a month now?  It is true.  We finished the fourth Fusion last nigh.  We had smaller numbers (19) but it was still a lot of fun.  We are preparing for the Christmas Concert and learned a third song tonight.   We are hoping to have four songs for the concert.  Two of the students were chosen to sing the solo parts for the concert and tried to sing

After last Fusion next day in the morning I found broken mirror on the ground.  I have to say that I was angry and was asking God "are you not guarding your possesions?" I had to repent later because I reacted in anger and GOD gave me different kind of courage. I have prayied and announced to enemy that - I am sorry but GOD have called me here and I am not leaving from here. This is His terrytory

And now there’s three!  Tonight we had the third Fusion and things seem to be going strong still.  There are some exciting notable things from this week.  We still have  a good number of students at Fusion I think around 25-30.  We decided that we will have a Mini Christmas concert and are therefore gearing up for it now.  We will have a drama created by one of our students and a leader.  There

A week ago we had the second Fusion!   It was really great to see so many of the students come from the first week and even to see a couple new ones.   It is really a blessing that God is allowing us to be a part of here.  It seems that we now may have the core group of students who will be coming consistently.   As we progressed through the night we continued to learn the two songs that we began

We Finally had our first Fusion in Slovakia tonight!!!   It was amazing!!!   We spent the day visiting schools with Noah Ellenwood.  He is the son of a Josiah Venture Co-worker who was a contestant on Cesko-Slovensko Superstar which is like Amreican Idol.  God is really using him and his talent to reach young people.  God really used him today to help bring students to Fusion.  As we prepared for

We had our first opportunity to go into schools on Monday to promote Fusion.  We went to 10 classes total and had great responses from the students.  Most of them seemed interested in the idea of Fusion, but we did not have any confirmed yes’s which is normal for Slovakia.  We hope that many of these students will come to see Fusion for the first time and will want to continue to be a part of

Fusion will officially begin on the 16th of November!  We will lead up to the initial rehearsal by visiting schools and inviting the youth.  We will also be trying to connect with students in the local mall and will have the help of Czech and Slovak star Noah Ellenwood.  This is exciting and will hopefully be a big draw for students to the first Fusion!  Please pray with us as we prepare for this

3 day mission trip to this church will serve for inspiration as our 14 students search for new ideas and ways how to do ministry in their churches. We also came to help with youth group as well as preparing their events... For me personally this trip is serving for gettin to know students and listening their hearts. Today we will travel back home so you can pray for the safety on the roads.

Tonight we had a meeting full of blessing.  The invitation was given to the church that whoever was interested in Fusion should come to the Poloha’s house for a meeting to think and strategize about the future for Fusion.  There was a great turn out of people and a tremendous amount of thoughts and ideas.   We truly feel blessed to have this group’s support and prayers as we continue to

This has been the deciding day for Strategy A in Banska Bystrica.  We found out today one after another that the School Administrators are not on board with Fusion.  This is a hard thing to hear, but is also confirming to us that this part of the strategy is done and we can confidently move forward to the next idea without a feeling that we did not do enough before.  New ideas are popping up

We spent the day traveling to Žilina and Bratislava and spent the day in meetings.  These were not normal meetings!  We had the opportunity to meet with Mark Chase (who’s family is raising support to move here).  We are excited about the prospect of the Chases moving here and working with us in Fusion!  The time spent today with Mark was a great time to get to know him better and to

Today three of us (Draho, Zuzka, and Josh) went to a meeting of the School administrators to promote Fusion to them.  We had only 5 minutes to share and were not able to use our power point presentation on the big screen, but I believe that God was present!  We were able to clearly explain Fusion and what we are doing.  As we were leaving we were told that they needed to discuss it with each

Today I visited our Major and he officially wellcomed me in his city. The reason to visit Major was to introduce him the work of Fusion. We have explained what the Fusion will be about and we received his full support. Praise God. We believe that this visit has opened important doors to the city hall. Today we also had our FUSION traing and I rejoice of so many people wants to get involved too.

Last sunday was very special. Danny Jones with Clara with Dawson and Laurel (Dawsons wife) came to our Church. Danny was preaching and after the church the Church has sent us out to Banska Bystrica. We had people praying over us. This was very important moment in our moving. That afternoon Dawson and Laurel had wedding party for their Slovak friends.

Thankyou for your prayers. The presence of God at the festival was obvious as I was looking at the crowd worshipping and praising God. I have been challenging people to TRUST God in everything.

Dear friends, God has gave us great week of friendship, english, sports and evangelism with a group of 60 young people of which 30 didnt know Christ. One evening after the program a student came to ask me a question. "Draho do you think God could forgive me my last 15 years of living without Him? And I am now really sad to find out that someone had to die on my place." Well this kind of reactions

That means as soon as we come back from the English evangelistic Camp we need to be PACKING because on 12th in the morning we are moving to Banska Bystrica. We will store everything in the garage of a house we are buying I hope really soon. We still do not have remining

Well today we had a family interested in buying our flat but who never lived in the flat before and we had most horrible experience with them.

Tonight two churches and its elders boards together with youth leaders has gathered around the possibility to have Fusion in their churches. They invited me and our TCK director to present them Fusion. Bratislava is our capital city and it has the most needs in this direction. We need wisdom what should be our next steps. They will probably start this ministry next year 2012 in September.

The primary aim of Fusion is to help local churches reach out to un-churched youth through a network of youth rock/gospel choirs and performing arts groups, each which is based in and run by a local church. During weekly rehearsals, the youth hear the gospel message and see Christ at work in the leaders and other Christian members. This ministry is already helping 8 local churches in the Czech

The time for preparations is nearly over. And yet there is so much to do. One thing we are excited about is that this year we will be taking Bible as a topic. We will be encouraging all 600 of youth workers to take a good GRIP on the word of God in all they do in their ministry and everyday life. They all will get great instruction on how to use Bible to prepare the talk but mainly how to study

Summer is the time when we at TCK walk along side the churches by helping them run youth evangelistic camps. It is the time of influencing the local church to get out from building and evangelize, time to grow its leaders, time to find new workes with the passion, time to lead someone to christ, time to play a lot of sports, time to find new friends...As I write there are 3 camps finishing their

I could tell by the way the students stared at their diplomas that they were impressed with the way it looked and that they were proud of what they had accomplished. Likewise, I could tell by the way the students said goodbye, that what we had accomplished together this year had left a deep impression on their hearts.SPM is an investment. It is a serious investment of time, money, influence,

We were able to come to the Spring conference only for one day, due to Zuzka's state exam, that she was taking. It was fun to reconnect with some of our friends. I also had two important meetings. One was with Dragan Mitrovcan from Serbia. He expressed their need for help with the national youth workers conference. They have done it for the last 9 years but Dragan thinks it is not going

“I have prayed for two years”, one young woman said with tears, “that God would teach me what to do with the girls I am leading. And this conference has been the answer to that prayer. Now I know the specifics about how to disciple”! Over 600 youth leaders from all over Slovakia gathered together for a four day conference of inspiration, help and training.

The Reason why we do such mission trip with our studenst is that we desire for them to see the need for mission, but also to discover for themselves the different concepts of european churches. Our school has desire not to be only theoretical but practical too. We observed how the church is being run but also lived. We also have had a lot of opportunities to work manually in their outreach

I will ask and listen.I will write and answer.I want to know God more.I want to know what He wants me to do.I pray to know what should be our next step with our church,next step with KOMPAS, next step in family, marriage, childrennext step in evangelism and mission.I will go away from home to some quiet place.I hope to come back with some truth about myself and God.
