On behalf of all the Polish pastors and their families, Polish Christian Ministries sends out special heartfelt thanks to all who have sacrificially given to support our ministries in 2015. Without you, we could not do what we do.Because you have partnered with us so generously, 49 Polish nationals are being financially supported — representing 29 churches and 5 other agencies which seek to strengthen the outreach of the local church.As the new year comes upon us, please ask our heavenly Father to impart a fresh vision to all Polish pastors for future ministry in Poland. Boldly approach God’s throne, pleading with Him to raise up more disciples for His Kingdom.Please help us this coming year to empower even more nationals to plant churches, equip and train leaders, and reach more Poles with the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.*********************************************************************************************Thank you for your recent gifts which helped us move toward meeting some special needs/goals.Rec’d to date GoalC.
