Wisla, Poland is beautiful at this time of the year.
The weight of freshly fallen snow is carried with grace by the magnificent pines that dot the hillside of this magnificent mountain village. The lights illumine the broad ski trails and thousands are enjoying a break from schools and colleges to enjoy a week in the mountains.
My dear friend Henryk Krol and I boarded our plane this morning at Paris' Charles De Gaulle Airport in route to Krakow, Poland. We drove directly from the airport to Wisla, about two hours, and went immediately into a meeting with Dr. Adam Krol, the president and founder of Habitat for Humanity in Poland. Adam is Henryk's brother, one of the three children of a godly family who maintained their faith and their goldy influence along with hundreds of others in some of Poland's darkest hours. The Krol family has had a remarkable influence in this nation. Henryk began Christian radio in the Poland's southern region with seven stations and manages the Jesus. net initiaive in this country. We have meetings tomorrow with some of their leadership team, will visit Habitat for Humanity building sites, and continue to do development training with key GSO's in this area.
This was something of an exhausting day but one filled with great joy. How wonderful at the end of our day to pray together in the Krol living room, a solemn reminder once more of the glories of redemption.
Eric Celerier shared the attached video with me yesterday, just as we were leaving our meetings last evening. I loved it and it accurately reflects the passion of the Christian leaders I have met already during these initial three days of my journey.
There's a message here, don't miss it!!!
