QSBC Mission Team 2013


Our second set of special visitors also came from OK !!!
Last week, we had a mission team from Quail Spring Baptist Church in Oklahoma !!!  7 individuals came to Krakow and spent the week living in the Polish culture, meeting Poles, and sharing God's amazing love with those they met.  God moved in BIG ways in the spiritual conversations He led them to during each day of the week !!!

 
Team Orientation at the Hesskews
 
 
They served at our local Polish church, Misja Laski.................both in preaching the Word...
 
 
And teaching the kids in Sunday School.....


 
 
 
They prayer walked the streets of Krakow

 
And prayer-trammed along the way....
 
They shared the Gospel through a simple spiritual survey....

 
They served as conversation partners at an English school...

Men's Bible study
 
 
 
They served 35+ students a meal who were studying God's Word in an Alpha Course
 
 
They met with university students and practiced their English while talking about spiritual things.
 

 
They had a great week, and they were such a blessing to our ministry and our family !!!
Thank you, QSBC, for loving Poles !!!
