FEBRUARY 2019
Dear Friends,
Thanks so much for praying for our recent missions conference in late January. What a blessing it was! The focus this year was upon reaching with the Gospel and ministering to the deaf and those with physical disabilities. This group is so often neglected in churches, camps and outreach ministries.
The need for this in Europe is truly great. For example, if you would gather all the deaf in Europe into one place, it would be the 5th largest country in Europe and perhaps the largest unreached people group.
Partnering with us in this missions conference were special representatives from the Hungarian Baptist Union and Joni and Friends. Our students and staff were challenged to be available to Christ however He leads in getting the Gospel to the ends of the earth. At the invitation, thirteen people publicly made this decision.
In addition, more than $7700 was promised to help reach and minister to those with disabilities especially in Hungary. Read below the personal testimonies of two of our students who made this decision. Praise God for His work in these lives!

Bethany: "I have felt called to ministry for several years, but decided to actually dedicate my life to ministry about a week ago. It was a really cool step for me to take because although I already wanted to go into missions, there have been multiple times in my life where I wasn’t so sure. Times where I thought living comfortably and knowing where money is coming from will be easier.

Or times when I think I’m gonna just want to have an easier job. But recently God has been teaching me not to let my emotions guide me. So to me the significance of dedicating my life to missions is that it doesn’t matter if sometimes I don’t feel up to the task. And it doesn’t matter if after I finish college, I just don’t want to do ministry anymore. I will do ministry with my life because I believe God called me to it. No turning back!"

Caleb: "In the weeks leading up to the Missions Conference, God was really working in my life and re-opening my heart to the idea of missions. After lots of prayer, God opening doors, and some personal convictions... I knew that God wanted me to fully surrender myself and be open to His leading for my life, whether it be cross-cultural missions or ministry back home.

Standing up in front of a crowd and making a personal decision to allow God to do whatever with my life isn’t a small decision, and it isn’t meant to be taken lightly. I want to use the talents that God has blessed me with and I am willing to do so in whatever way He leads."
