New Years services

Praise the Lord for another year before us to worship and serve Him. We had a great Sunday school lesson as we talked about Gideon and his faith in the Lord. He did what seemed to be the impossible. Czech and English services were encouraging. We translated a "Read through the Bible" schedule into Czech and handed them out in services. Jeff preached on being a pestilent follow from Acts 24. If you weren't a "pest" for the Lord in 2010, make it a goal to be one in 2011, before it is too late.

For some here in the Czech Republic it is too late, as the New Year arrived at least 10 people died because of fireworks, alcohol poisoning and fires. The Czech police say this year's New Year celebrations registered the highest number of death cases in comparison with previous years.

Also a rise of thefts was reported on New Year's Eve. Jewelry and watches worth more than 1 million dollars were stolen from a shopping center in Prague, only the Lord knows the total in losses and lives.
