About Me

This blog is all about the adventure that God is taking me on as I prepare and then head out to be a missionary in the Czech Republic from May till August.

A common tale

In Czech , long after the missionaries have gone back to the states and school is back in session, students will make decisions to follow Christ. They take time to think about it and really consider what they are getting ready to commit to. I love this! It's not just some emotional decisions made, not to discredit those decisions because I do believe that those as well can be genuine, but it is a big deal for them since some of them can suffer a lot of percussion from their own families when they make a decision to follow Christ.
  
Lubša is a boy that I meant last year at camp. He has that same story of giving his life over to Christ months after camp. He gave his story on Sunday at a youth group event in front of many of his non-Christian friends  who were invited to come. This was the first I had heard his story and this was how I found out that Lubša came to know Jesus. I will let him tell you in his own words how his story. (Just click on the link below to listen to Lubša story)

This is what gets me fired up and this is what encourages my heart. Hearing a story like this. Knowing that long after we have left God is still working. He is still working in the hearts of the Czech youth right now are you read this. I am beyond excited to get back there and work right along side the Lord in the things that he is doing so that more stories like Lubša can be shared!
