Preparing 4 Split Croatia 10 day Outreach; April 17-26






Departing soon:
We are getting ready to depart to Split Croatia this Friday (April 17th - 27th).

The Team:
This team consists of 10 people from diverse backgrounds; I am very stoked on this!
  • Ági and Simona are from Budapest Hungary
  • Lilla is from Vajta Hungary
  • Danjiella from Bosnia; raised in Austria... she speaks lots of languages!
  • Claudia from Romania
  • Brooke (Temecula) & Rachael (S.D.) are both from Cali
  • Danni from Serbia
  • Joe (an older gentleman) from Florida
Croatia...
is one of 7 counties that made up the former Yugoslovia; ie- Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Slovenia, Kosovo, Montenegro & Macedonia. Croatia has been an independent country since 1991; wickopedia it if you have time and are interested on more detail!

Split is a popular vacation town for many European travelers; i've been told that there are many english speakers there :)

Tim and Grace have planted a church in split and will be hosting our team. We will be boarding in the coffee shop that they run.

Please pray:
  • For team unity, maturity, humility, supernatural love (toward eachother and those we encounter); ie- overflowing fruit of the Spirit, etc (Gal 5:22-23).
  • Spirit lead worshipful, service, prayer, traveling, etc.
  • For fruitfulness, sensitivity to His leading, divine opportunities to serve/speak.
  • For the miracle of Him using flawed/imperfect humans to carry out His eternal purposes.
ps- the statue above is of Diocletian who had/has a palace in Split; he lead one of the most intense persecutions upon the church in history.

Return to Eger Hungary...










I just got back from an outreach where we hosted a youth club in a neighboring city to Eger Hungary, with 7 others from CCBCE, in support of CC Eger. We created activities, games, skits, presentations/teachings and had an easter egg hunt.

The trip was a blessed time. We had amazing weather, a solid team & high spirits. We also were able to play music on the streets and had some great interactions/conversations with local youth about the Lord :) Good times!!!
