Weekend with Košice people

Today afternoon i am leaving with Košice teenagers for weekend to Zborov, village with a castle. We wanna focus on Zacchaeus story from Lk.19, but we also prepared a lot of games and of course we gonna hike to castle. Please, pray for us as we will share gospel to these kids. I'll bring more info and photos later.

Election and what is next...

This saturday we got an election in Slovakia. I like The Simpsons and when i found this picture i laughted but later i realized its quite sad reality. People in Slovakia are frustrated more than ever.
Last couple weeks media revealed several causes. As young family we feel like living in Slovakia is getting harder.
I am thinkig if this country can find somebody like king David or Salamon. They were wise leaders who brought welth and peace for Israel. I know that few candidates in this election are christians, so there is still hope. May God save their characters, cause money and power can really change human. We are praying that Slovakia will get welth and spiritual health, but as we were watching recent reality show it just showed that sociaty goes oposite direction.
I'm not sure about church. How it gonna save. They live in their own world with glimpse of beauty outside, but many times sick inside. How church gonna looks in 21 century? Will be interesting for this generation? Will they carry that MESSAGE about Creator who loves us till the end? End on cross. People are searching for something. If they are missing Christ, there will allways be a hole. May the message about Christ filled this society from the bottom to the top.

EXIT Tour and KPM / spring 2012

I can tell you with joy, that EXIT Tour project will continue. After Žilina, Košice, Nitra and Prešov, this spring we will be in 5th city - Banska Bystica! We gonna cooperate with the most churches and we'll visit at least 3 high schools, serve over 1500 students.
I have been in Banska Bystrica already twice and i was always leaving with good feeling, that God is already working in the city and we can just hop on.
By the way "Hop on" is the main theme of KPM (conference for youth leaders) we are preparing in the end of March. For more info go on: http://tckompas.sk/kpm/

Russia

Some of you might know that we have been in Russia. We wanted use our free time wisely so we decided to go to Russia and help with youth camp. It was my 3rd time there. We were helping slovak missionary Julo Matta who lives there with his family.
St. Petersburg is amazing city with 6 milion inhabitants, beautiful places, rich history and nice people. We had opportunity to visit the most interesting sightseeings, celebrate New Year which is, by the way, the biggest holiday in the country and help at youth camp. We prepared some games, had testimony, helped with guitar workshop. This camp was graduation practice for 9 youth workers who studied last year and half at Youth Leader Course. Katka and me prepared presentation about Slovakia, youth work and our ministry over here. I would never say that i will be in Russia 3 times. There is nothing impossible for God. You can be part of His work somewhere over the planet if you really want.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas full of peace and joy, and lot of succes in family and work in 2012! Thank you for your prayers till now and for prayers while we will be in Russia. All preparations went well.
I was encouraged when i visited planning meeting of Bardejov youth group week ago. I remmember when we were less than 10 people at youth group. Now there are more than forty just workers, responsible for clubs, camps, small groups...its a joy!
I was glad when they invited me to preach and lead worship at Christmas club at Dec.22th, we looked at prophetes and how little Jesus fulfiled all of that.
Rejoice, Son of God came to the Earth to made eternity available for us!

Russia again

Hi,
some of you might know that me and Katka are going to Russia for 2 weeks. We wanna help Julo Matta (slovak missionary) and his family with youth camp there. We are very excited about it!
Russia is the bigest country of the world. There was comunism for many years and if you are watching news you know that it doesnt seems perfect right now. Main religion is orthodox. Minority churches are considered cults. People often looking for spirituality wrong ways.
i had privilege to be there 2 times but for Katka it will be premiere. We will have days off so we decided that we wont eat christmas cakes and just watch TV whole season. We gonna taste some of adventure and help others. I often think about people in Russia since my first visit. I remember guy who was addicted before he gave his life to Jesus.
We manage to cover all expences for flight tickets, visa, accomodation...i want to thank all sponsors. Klub31 from Bratislava, ECAV church Bardejov, Gajdos family, Zuzka S and David S. You helped us a lot! If you wanna be part of good work in Russia, please, contact me. We covered our expences but we would like to help them as much as possible also in financial way. Also i wanna ask and dare you for prayer support while we will be there. Dec.27th-Jan.9th.
I used to watch documentaries when i was younger and hoped that one day i will have opportunity to visit all those places on our planet. God saw my desire and used it for His glory. Believe, there is nothing impossible for Him!

Youth group in Obišovce

Yesterday I had privilege to preach at Obisovce youth group. They are going through series of "colourful" topics. Every week they talk about some colour, which is conected with bible verse.
Yesterday was all YELLOW, cause we spoke about Treasure. Main verse was from Mathew 6 where we can read that where our treasure is, there is our heart.
God said he will provide all we need. Someone can get more, someone less, but we need to remember, that we are only administrators of His property at this world. We have everything that matters in Jesus already.
