Good Shepherds
The first Potenciál weekend is only a month away! Sue and I spent the last weekend in November planning and praying with Jakub Limr, pastor in Hradec Kralove. Pray that we will be good shepherds who in God’s strength ‘will tend the sheep in a good pasture’. Pray that we will lead our “flock” to ‘lie down in good grazing land where they will feed in a rich pasture’ [Ezekiel 34v14].

Does God Play Chess?
Dennis thinks God plays chess; he recently found himself ‘on the board’!
Some years back a thriving Czech church in a busy provincial city went through a disastrous split. Many people were spun off into oblivion and two fairly small groups continued as separate congregations, now in different denominations. The South Yorkshire gang (Dennis, Sue and folk from the churches there) became very much involved with one congregation, which grew, flourished and links very closely with all we do. There was no communication between the two Czech churches at any level. But both grew, with very different visions, but blessed of God.

Prague Central Congregation
Annual Holiday August 2009
For the fourth year in a row, Sue and I were invited to be guests at the annual holiday of the Prague Central Congregation. There were more than 100 people at the camp. The weather was perfect, the site a bit remote, but good for fellowship. During the holiday [holiday? what holiday?] our theme was on the Holy Spirit. During this 'holiday' they worked very hard at praising God, studying the word, teaching their children and generally preparing themselves to be a blessing to the city.
