Part of home here in my home!

It has been a week since I have updated. Well, you can blame it on my mom! We have had a GREAT time together. She is helping me get reorganized and see me in action. We have attended a girls conference, church, trips to IKEA, going to the movies and while I had meetings, mom was home giving me a great gift!

It has been snowing almost non-stop here! Lots of snow and cold wind! I love it!!!

Mom is here until next Thursday. Then we say the sad good-bye.

What a Week!!!

What can I say about last week? God was there! He was in the trees and the snow and the conversations that we had! This is not a week where I look for some to decide to follow Jesus, but it is a week to be introduced to Him. Well, this year a few made that important step to follow the One who created all of this beauty! Praise and Glory be HIS!

Here are some pictures of the camp!

Conversations were happening everywhere!


Each day we would vote who was the "Super Hero" of the mountain.


Hanging out at the top of the slops!


The "snow park"!









Our evening program was fun and though provoking.

MSP A Week of Snowboarding and Conversations About God

I sat amazed tonight. MSP is normally a camp where we merely introduce the idea of God and who He can be in a person's life. This camp has been different though. Tonight we had a wonderful young man from Canada give his testimony and then show the trailer to the Czech movie "MOST". It is the dramatization of the story about a train engineer who had to make a choice between his son's life or the life of the passengers on the train. It is a touching story and the way Grant tied the story to the love that God has for each MSP attendee was great!

We then broke into groups to have a short discussion time. One and a half hours later we finally had to break things up. The groups did not what not stop talking.
s
One personal story, is about a young man from my youth group has had problems for the past few years and has been very distant from God and the church. I have seen his heart move over the past few months though, and hoped that this would be the camp to confirm to him who God is in his life. He was appointed a co-leader for a group. (I was surprised.) During the discussion time, he left. My heart sank. Then 5 minutes later he returned WITH HIS BIBLE!!!!! After the discussion time I took him aside and affirmed his growth. He got tears in his eyes and said, "I really needed my Bible tonight." It is amazing how God is starting to stir more and more in the lives of young men and women here in Poland!!
