Polish Christian Ministries

June 2016

Above all, put on love–the perfect bond of unity… And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. Colossians 3:14, 17

What a great experience the European Leadership Forum was for all those in attendance! 720 leaders from 45 countries came away not only better informed but also trained and inspired to go forward as servants who love and lead in the power of God’s Spirit. Six of our PCM partners were in attendance. We pray for a great harvest across Europe as a result of this gathering of Christian leaders.


These eight team members from the Central Christian Church in Mt. Vernon, Illinois, are Poland-bound. They will travel to Biala Podlaska (June 3-12) to help the congregation there lay the foundation for their new church building.

Hillside Christian Church, Marshfield, Missouri, has gathered a team of

children’s workers to assist at a camp for Ukrainian refugee children. They head to Ostroda, Poland, June 15-22. Matt and Haylee James, the team leaders, were PCM interns last year and are excited to return to Poland.

Praising God for…

…the Porter family who are returning to Poland in June to minister in Ostroda

… for Oksana Bilous’ new smile — the “saga of the teeth” is finished!

…the financial support given for the Ukrainian refugee children’s camp in Ostroda and the children’s outreach in Lodz

Please pray for…

…Leadership Development sessions with the churches in Gdynia, Nysa, Wyszkow, Biala Podlaska, and Bielsk Podlaski this summer

…building renovation projects in Bielsk Podlaski, Olsztyn, and Ciechanow

…summer children outreaches: Ukrainian refugee children; Lodz children; Lublin basketball camp, and five Polish churches coming together to lead a Polish youth camp
