December 2022

Dear Friends,

What a year we have! Even though I thought that we shall slow down a little bit at the end of this busy 2022 – it has not happened! We do not have the final numbers for 2022, but it is already the record year in our 40+ year history! The totally unexpected event – war in Ukraine with over 8 million citizens relocating via Poland (with ca. 1.5 million newcomers staying in our country) – opened an enormous opportunity to show Christ’s love but also explain His meaning to many, literally, hundreds of thousands… And they have a big hunger for spiritual matters, because who but God could help them in such challenging times.

This believing man has lost everything, his house is a ruin, but he says with joy that for him it is much more important and greater that he has salvation in Jesus.

As you already know, we have employed 5 Ukrainian leaders and they are organizing lots of initiatives for their fellow folks both in Poland and in Ukraine. This week we organize a special “Dinner for Ukrainian Ladies” in a nice hotel  – to reach a number of non-believing people, express love and invite them to fellowship with Jesus in churches.

Our digital Ukrainian discipleship platform is growing constantly – there are now some 5,500 students that registered to come closer to God. New courses are produced all the time, keeping many people busy. We still pray for more Ukrainian e-coaches who would connect with the seekers.

Before distribution of humanitarian help, Pastor is preaching the gospel to the crowd open to spiritual food as well

The English language, “Grow your life” discipleship platform is also developing. An international conference for the involved people is planned to happen in Belgium in 2023, a spontaneous initiative of its leaders. Praise the Lord!

Filming short video clips for The Chosen social media and ambassador movement.

Our main outreach focus in Poland right now is The Chosen film series. The cinema premiere of season one was organized in 30 cinemas across Poland, rooms were packed. Now we are preparing for a launch of the application with Polish voiceover – to be offered as a “Christmas gift”. DVDs and blue rays are available as well. But the big dream is to have it on the Polish State Television, TVP. As I mentioned last month, the negotiations are in full swing – please pray they will maintain their interest and accept our non-negotiable border conditions, like the lack of exclusivity. We pray that 15 million Poles would be exposed to Christ in this format, which would be the biggest ever evangelistic campaign in our country.

Our christian band „Cześć” had the final concert in our church, as they decided to regroup for practical reasons

There is also good progress with the development of our unique software Mentoring-Discipleship-Management System. Since we have a total of 25 dedicated, gifted people working full time in IT and Creative – yes, there are measurable results of that! But as it is a spiritual warfare, your prayers are really appreciated. Thank you for partnering with us!

In this building we rented one flat us our ministry office in Gdynia, on the baltic sea cost

Our Outback team travelled 1,200 kilometers to Poznań and Gdańsk to start new Outback centers.

Also our other projects continue to grow their impact:

• “The Bible Project” (translated into Polish) – currently consisting of around 150 episodes that have been watched over 2.5 million times. It proves to be a very informative multimedia material.
• Similarly, the children cartoons, “Superbook” with Bible stories – from its inception, the sum of views of all episodes exceeds 30 million (!) As you’re reading this, approx. 50 actors are in our studio, involved in dubbing the 5th season of the series.

We also had a good, 5-day-long visit of 3 of our Jesus.net partners from the Netherlands – a good time to plan an even closer cooperation. Yes, we can learn so much from each another!

Yes, Friends, we would be very thankful if you would join us in prayer for all those matters. We treasure your friendship so much!

God bless you!

Henryk
