“The Stone the builders rejected has become the Capstone.” Psalm 118:22

 

PRAY for Polish believers: 

…that God would remind them of who He is.

He is the Cornerstone.  He is “…a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious …”

…that God would remind them of who they are in Him.
The followers of this ‘living stone’ are “…a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for His own possession, so they may proclaim the excellencies of Him who called them out of darkness into His marvelous light.”

…that they may  “…be built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, and to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.   I Peter 2:4,5,7,9 
 


Praise AND Prayer for our Polish partners:

LUBLIN:
Pray for Marek Charis, Lublin preacher,  as he continues to recover from an appendix operation and an infection that required him to return to the hospital.

OLSZTYN, LIDZBARK WELSKI, AND RYBNIK:
Praise for these three churches who have taken more financial responsibility in 2014 in support of their preacher.  Pray for them as they walk by faith and experience God’s hand upon them.

ZAKOSCIELE/BETHLEHEM:  
During 3 weekends over 11,000 people came to see and hear the Gospel portrayed through the Journey to Bethlehem in Zakosciele.  They came from all over Poland even as far as Gdansk.  250 volunteers were involved in this project as actors, musicians, technical crew, media guys, builders, and farmers.  Neighbors allowed the use of their fields for parking lots.  Others loaned their animals for four weeks.  It was truly a collective effort of the entire community and most of them were not from the church.  It is a joy to see some of them attending Sunday services and youth programs.  To Go be the glory!                                       

Let’s pray for the seeds which were planted in the hearts of those involved, to bring forth fruit in the future for God’s Kingdom.
