Mission in Bohumín, April 2019
Shortly after Easter 2019, a K180 team headed to Eastern Czech Republic, to the town of Bohumín, very close to the Polish border to work with a local church in mission and evangelism. It was a privilege to partner again with former K180 trainee Miriam Paszova, her Pastor, Roman, and the wider church. There is a real need for the Gospel among Czech people, as, according to a recent study, the nation boasts the highest rate of those identifying as atheists among young people in the whole of Europe. The team were able to share at the church’s youth group on the Friday evening, engaging people with the Gospel on the streets and in the parks, and a Saturday evening ‘Family Time’ event where the team were able to share about ‘English Family Life’ and bring in the Gospel. The team ministered on Sunday during the morning service. Monday is usually a travel day, which it was in this case, but the team had the open door to go into a local school and take two classes. Team member Iven was able to share a love song and a song about the love of God, explaining the difference between human love and God’s love. It was a very encouraging weekend by all accounts. We are grateful for the witness and local church and the privilege of working alongside our brothers and sisters in Bohumín. Please continue to pray for the Czech nation! |

On Mission in Bohumín, 2018
A team of four - including Jana, a 2016 K180 trainee who lives near Bohumín - visited Miriam, Pastor Roman and the church of Bohumín once again in May 2018 (see the Big 3 webpage for details of the 2016 mission). We received a warm welcome from the youth and leaders with whom we spent much of the weekend, training and venturing into the town and parks to initiate gospel conversations.
We partnered with the youth in hosting an British Evening for the community who were invited to enjoy tea and scones, hear about the royal wedding, and listen to testimony about Jesus.
We were also able to join in on the Bikers’ Blessing which drew around 250 people in from the bikers’ & local communities. We were given the opportunity to preach to all of them about the freedom Jesus paid for on the cross.
While many in the community were quick to assert that they did not believe in God, once in conversation, many softened on that stance and ultimately acknowledged the possibility of the claims of Jesus. Join us in praying for the church there and the continued softening of hearts in Bohumín!
