I’m sending you fresh greetings from Poland! September was quite busy for us, but it is nothing new… We see positive results of the rebranding and simplifying of our ministry structure.
The numbers of connections are climbing at this moment, on the discipleship platforms managed from our office, we have over 171 thousand people (!) and 192 thousand subscribing to one of our regular mailings… But it is not the numbers that are most important, rather it is the impact that God’s Word has on people’s lives! Many stories, testimonials that we received from our various projects: digital disciplemaking, The Chosen, Outback Poland, daily devotions… we are talking about hundreds of received messages. Some of them are published at the end of this email.

Still, we like to be looking forward – there are so many opportunities opening. We want to prayerfully evaluate them, remembering that “when your visibility exceeds your ability, you lose your credibility”. Yes, we want to deliver, to be implementers, not just dreamers…
In September we were also traveling a lot. Oliver went to a major “The Chosen Con” in Orlando, Filip and me – first to the “Global Strategy Forum” in Bangkok, Thailand, then to Lausanne 4 Congress in Seoul, South Korea. Both of those conferences were good – the first-one with some 60 participants from 12 countries, the second – over 5200 participants from 202 countries. A real spiritual feast! The reason we are traveling so much is that we believe that we have something to share with the global Christian community: our methodology and software platform for reaching non-believers to become disciples of Jesus. Cooperation is a must if we consider making a difference on a global scale!
Oliver attended The Chosen Con in Orlando
Global Strategy Forum in Bangkok
Twelve countries were represented, with some strategic discussions and plans.
Many personal meetings in Bangkok, this one with Reyong Kittipol.
Over 5,200 participants attended this Lausanne Congress for World Evangelization, representing 202 countries
This was also 50th anniversary of original Lausanne Congress. A joyful celebration!
The Lausanne 4 gathering was very special. My parents with brother Adam attended the first Lausanne Congress in 1974, then I was at the Manila 2nd event, later Amsterdam gathering and now – Seoul. The great news is – the theology of the global evangelical movement has not changed, it is based on the Bible, sin is a sin, marriages are between man and woman and should last whole life, etc.
Poland was represented by 12 leaders
Some stimulating discussions how to improve cooperation between Polish churches and parachurch organisations
The conference center and the sourroundings were very impressive

Many direct meetings, this one with Stan Jantz, president of Come and See foundation.
Very warm involvement of Korean volounteries, what was deeply moving
We took a trip to the viewpoint to the North Korea, what is a huge contrast to the wealthy South Korea
On Sunday we had opportunity to participate in the church service. It was a wonderful experience.
We definitely liked Korean cuisine
Another trip, planned for attending the GACX (Global Alliance for Church Multiplication) conference in Asheville, NC, US was cancelled, due to the hurricane Helene that hit that area.
Last weekend we had our DeoLink ministry conference in Wisla, Poland. It was wonderful, but more about it in the next update.
Yes, Friends, we would be very thankful if you joined us in prayer for all those matters. We treasure your friendship!
God bless you!
