Slovak Children attending VBS after school.

The last day at the school in Hybe, Slovakia we put on a fair for the children. We had a lot of different games, face painting, and prizes. We all really connected with the children and we didn't want to leave as much as they didn't want to see us go. Please pray for Slovakia, that the local Christians will be able to be a light in a dark place.

High School Slovakia Service Project

Through MCYM (Military Community Youth Ministry), we joined over 800 students from other American military bases from around Europe to minister God's love and grace to the people of Slovakia.

Our base, Mildenhall/Lakenheath England, teamed together with the air force base in Incirlik, Turkey to work in the Slovakian town of Hybe for the week. Here we where able to build a playground for the children; teach in the classrooms; hold VBS after school for the younger children and provide club for the older middle school and high school students.

In the evening all of the American students gathered together for a Spirit energized time of fun, worship and teaching. Our students where challenged to live for God everyday, not just here "on the mountain top". Many of our students from England committed their life to serve God full time, and one or our students made a first time commitment to follow Christ.

God is alive and active here in the military culture at our base here in England. Please continue to pray for the 1400 students at our base that through the ministry of Youth for Christ, partnered with MCYM our family will be able to make a lasting impact for Christ.

Blessings, Ron & Karen.
