May Day Bike Trek

We met at the King's Kids Club at a little after 10 am and 8 of us (plus Abi and Hannah in their bike seats) set out on the 20 kilometer ride to Chudow. I have never ridden this far... ever... so this was quite daunting for me, especially with a 20lb girl strapped on the back of my bike! The guys were gracious though and switched bikes with me a few times so that I could have a break! We got to the park with rebuilt ruins of a small castle and stuffed ourselves with local food and drink and then sprawled out on the grass and soaked up the warm sun and enjoyed some R&R. Abi got to ride a pony and run around in the field with Hannah picking flowers. We returned to club around 5:30 and ended the day with grilling sausages and a game of soccer, er, I mean football. We had great fun and fellowship and I think I might actually be up for another bike trip sometime soon!

Easter Weekend

We were just blessed with a phenominal team of 45 youth from King's Kids Holland. Over the years we've enjoyed a wonderful relationship with the team in Heidelbek and know they have the annointing of the Lord. It was a full weekend from Friday to Sunday night. On Friday the team came to the King's Kids Club in Ruda Slaska and shared some dramas and dances and impacted the spiritual atmosphere in the neighborhood. They talked and prayed with the youth. On Saturday, we went to the Chechen refugee camp at noon and had a blast with the children with games, clowns, balloons, coloring, and the evangelical dance and drama program. It was wonderful to bring Jesus into this dark place. In spite of our differences of culture, language, and even religion, the men have noticed the different spirit that we bring into the camp as a positive one. We are welcomed everytime we come and it's such a blessing to us to begin these relationships. That evening, the team came to club again and interceded and prayer-walked around the neighborhood. Easter morning the Holland team led worship at our church (awesome!) and afterwards we ate dinner together. Then at 4pm the team went to the biggest park in the area and shared the gospel through the dramas, testimonies, and dance to about 300 people. Easter was the perfect time to take advantage of the time and share the gospel. People were willing to listen and many of the team and Greg were able to pray for people and share a bit deeper of what the Lord is doing. And before the team headed back to Holland they prayed over us as a family. Thanks again King's Kids Holland for sacrificing your Easter weekend and coming all the way to Poland to bless this nation. :)

RiverTree Church Mission Trip Report

My dad, Blake Rymer, wrote this and I want to share it with you because it is a wonderful recap of what happened here in Poland while the team from Huntsville, Alabama was here. I hope you take the time to read it. He did a wonderful job (as usual) in creating imagery so you can enter in to the time they spent here. Thanks Daddy and team for coming and being a part of Poland! Click on the picture so you can read it.
