Prayer Needs – October 2024
I want to take a moment and personally thank you for stopping by to join us in praying for the needs of our church and the work here that we’re doing in Gračec and Zagreb.
We have a few needs we are praying for.
- Our Home Group
We are still praying that God will increase our home group and draw in families in our area that do not yet know Him.
Please join with us in prayer that God will open the hearts of our neighbors to seek Him and come to know Him as their Lord and Savior.
- 2. Fall Youth Conference – 3rd Annual Foniraj me (Phone Me)
Two years ago, we organized our first fall youth conference. It was such a success that we are now on our 3rd annual conference and it is shaping up to be truly amazing.
Youth from all over come for a weekend of worship, teaching, workshops, and great fellowship.
Please keep this conference in your prayers. I know God is doing an incredible move in young people all over Croatia right now.
Our youth group has grown to the point that recently we split it up into Jr. and Sr. high groups. God is truly doing a miraculous work in their hearts.
- 3. A Team for the Second Service
We have temporarily gone back to offering just one service. So far, we haven’t been successful in forming a team to service in the second service, and many of our team leaders were growing exhausted trying to serve in two services.
One of the difficulties was that the second service was in English, which limited who could effectively service in that service – as not everyone knows English enough to join that team.
We have decided that going forward, both services will be in Croatian, but we will offer translation for those who need it.
We are praying for a team that feels called to serve our second service, please agree with us for that.
In the meantime, please pray that we will be able to effectively work out the logistics of fitting our congregation of roughly 170 in a building that is designed for about half that number of people!
Which leads me to our next need….
- 4. Additional Building Space
We own building space on the floor of a business/residential building near the center of Zagreb. On that floor, there are two additional spaces, one which has recently come up for sale.
We are currently trying to negotiate a price for that space, which would nearly double the amount of space we have now.
This additional space would serve as a children’s/youth center, allowing us to expand the space and seating in our auditorium.
At the rate we are growing, we are going to need that extra space, even if we maintain our second service.
