Bulgaria Trip


Last week the 2 Davids took Tom & Daniel (our newest team members) to Bulgaria. David W had an oppotunity to speak at the New Generation church in Sofia and saw a real response to what he shared. Daniel describes it as more of a 'conversation between him and the people...'!!
There was a time of praying for the sick and 5 people gave their lives to Jesus!
David also taught at the bible school and leadership school.



They then went on to visit our good friends Craig & Milena in Plovdiv who continue to do a great work amongst the gypsies.
There was a leaders meeting with the gypsy church and then DW shared again at Craig's home church.

Here's what the guys had to say...

Daniel:
'I found it very interesting to see how the people lived in Bulgaria, both in the city and ghettos where the gypsies live. It was a real eye-opener to go to the church and was very different to my experience of church in Germany. Something that stood out to me while I was there was when one of the guys spoke on seeking first God's kingdom and in doing that blessings will follow. It was very encouraging.'

Tom:
'It was great to go to the New generation church and meet Craig & Milena. The enthusiasm and dedication of both the church and the leaders in both places was great to see. It encouraged my faith seeing their unity and all the work going on there.'
