From July 6-17, 2010, seven members of NHF will be in Ukraine for our 4th Annual Reunion with our sister church, New Hope Church, in the city of Kremenchug. For the first few days, U10 will join members of NHC in local urban ministry, particularly to children & orphans. After Sabbath Worship with NHC, U10 will travel with the church to its annual week-long Summer Camp (Retreat), held in the countryside about 45 minutes outside the city-center. There, U10 will rest and fellowship with NHC brothers & sisters, as well as support NHC's outreach to invited guests -- friends, neighbours and coworkers who are not believer. In past summers, this Camp time has been crucial to deepening friendships across belief-borders. As a result of the affection, community and trust built at Camp, many non-believers have started to attend church and/or joined NHC's Bible study groups. Many friends and neighbours have come to know Jesus Christ as their Saviour, and NHC's ministry continues to expand, grow and flourish. U10 is humbled & excited to continue to play a part in the growth of God's church in Kremenchug. In addition to pouring into the life of NHC, U10 hopes to come home with a brighter view of the movement of God's Spirit around the world, a deeper understanding of how to love one's friends, neighbours and community, and a stronger inclination to stand for Christ, in faith, power and grace. Please keep in prayer for U10: Rachel Ahn, Sunny Ahn, Chae An, Julia An, Catherine Cha, Jeremey Houlton, Raimund Strauck (and our honorary team-members on-the-ground in Kremenchug: Sasha Nagaevich & Luda Bodnar). |
