Trick-or-Treating for the 1st time



This year, we invited our neighbors to "Trick or Treat" at our house for Halloween. It was very exciting to the families since this is not a Czech tradition. We had a fun "Fall party" with lots of activities. Laini dressed up like a Cowgirl. Larissa was a lunch-lady!!!

Success


Tuesday was the 20th Anniversary of the Velvet Revolution, the fall of communism, in the Czech Republic. To celebrate I went hunting and shot my first deer here. It is a Sika deer. I also got to meet and talk with some of the other hunters. All in all a great day.

Cowboy Poet

Last week we had the pleasure of spending time with Lanny Joe and Cindy Burnett. Lanny Joe is a cowboy poet. We took him with us to visit the English classes in one of the Czech schools. The students loved it. Here's a video of a song we did.

English Club and Bible Study


In September we started an English Conversation Class in our home on Thursday evenings and a Bible Study on Sunday evenings. We had our "kick-off" while FBC Forney, TX was here.

The English Club has been so much fun with a different topic every week (anything from cowboys to families, to carving pumpkins.) We love the Czechs that come each week!

The Bible Study for now is in both languages (English/Czech) and it has been a true pleasure to hear from God's Word in both languages....to worship in Czech and English and to watch as people really begin to understand Who God is.

This was a truly beautiful service.

English Camp in Plzen July, 2009




65 Czechs attended our first English Camp in Plzen. 10 people came from FBC Forney, TX to teach. They did an awesome job. The team was able to share the gospel during the week, and it was incredible to watch as God was opening the hearts of Czechs to listen to the Good News of Jesus.
