Summer update from Nis, Serbia
It has been an amazing summer of children's and youth work this year with the Nis church organising a total of three camps reaching 60+ young people with the gospel, most of whom are unchurched. Using varied teaching styles and media, the message of hope has gone out without compromise to tomorrow's generation. Pray for the seeds of these amazing outreaches to grow and produce fruit all over Serbia and beyond.
Together with our direct involvement with youth (working with them and making contacts) we have developed friendships and contact with their parents and with institutions that work with kids and youth in Nis, and we had an opportunity to present our youth ministry on a larger scale. Here’s a clip from the final concert in the park from our youth music camp:
We hope that this will be a stepping stone to greater ministry development in the next season.
You can find updates on our youth ministry Facebook page and view pictures from the camp and concert.
We are praying for the kids' work since we start a new season in September – in particular for new workers to serve in working with the children. At our current level we are not able to develop another ministry to work with kids on a regular basis, and we feel that it would be good to involve the children that attended our camps in a new, regular kids ministry.
Please pray for the youth work – for the years of working with the youth to yield fruit and open up new contacts with young people.
Please pray for the possibility of having presentations in high schools and dorms, which is an opportunity we were presented with near the end of the last school year.
Thank you for your prayers.
God bless you.
