July Update!

Hello everyone!

Here's an update for what's going on here in Croatia with our family and ministry. I guess we'll start out with the fun and exciting stuff, so here we go!

Family: We just recently found out that Grace is Pregnant with our 4th little bundle. She's about 9 weeks along and has been experiencing morning sickness and some tiredness, but thats to be expected and she is fine and the baby (from what the Doc said) is doing good. Thomas and Mila are enjoying summer and Oliver is running around screaming and pulling anything down that he can get his hands on. We're all doing well and are very blessed.



The Global Cafe: For those of you who understand what the Global cafe is you will be pleased to know that this past season it still functioned as a great place to meet and share with students that attend the near-by schools, and a place for the church to meet and have it's functions. However, it is with mixed feelings of sadness and excitement that we have to inform you that we believe the Cafe has run it's course as being part of our ministry. Over the time we've had it, it's been a great blessing and used to the full capacity of the vision the Lord had given us for it. Recently, we've received some fresh vision for the ministry and the Lord now has us going in a slightly different direction. The nostalgic part of us is sad to see this season pass, but we're so blessed to hear from the Lord and receive fresh vision from Him. We will try to focus a little more on the city center and we're looking for a place that we can just pay/use once or twice a week. Please pray for a place and this new season the Lord is bringing us into.

The fellowship is doing very well. Grace and I are so blessed by the people who are part of the body here and encouraged in the growth we see in each of their lives. We are currently studying though Genesis, and might I say, having a great time with the Lord as we continue each week.

Just a couple last things in closing, please keep the fellowship and the people here in this area in prayer. We so badly want to see the Lord touch many peoples lives! Ben and Emily Spector will be joining our team here in September and we're very excited to have them, especially since they will be taking over worship for Tim!! It's going to be 3 years since we've been to the States and we miss many of you dearly. We're planning on bringing the whole family over in December and letting some of you see kids you've never actually met in person! More details to come about that, but keep it in mind if you would like to get together when we are there.

God bless you all abundantly!! We love you and are so blessed that you are a part of this work our Lord has called us to.

~Tim, Grace and the kiddos
