We are continuing our outreaches and including other smaller cities around Prague. In January our small church group drove about thirty five miles south of Prague, to the city of Příbram. This town of 50,000 has a notorious past. Under the old regime, it was the site of uranium mines to which political prisoners were sent to work. Many of them died. Many high ranking Communist leaders lived in this area. Today, the families and relatives of both the former communist leaders and those who suffered and died in the mines, live side by side in Přibram. It is in this unique environment, that we held another Evening of the Bible. The location was in the beautiful Antonin Dvořak divadlo, a theatre for stage plays named after the famous Czech composer.
The program was identical to the one we did in Prague in September. The evening consisted of a DVD featuring the personal salvation testimonies of the members of Baptistické shromáždění, which you can see on the February Beautiful for Thee Home page and also at www.bspraha.cz, and concluded with the preaching of God’s Word.
After the program each attendee received a beautiful Králická Bible provided by the Baptist Couriers of Christ.
60 Czechs from Příbram went home with a lovely new Bible. A good number of them stayed after the program and discussed what they have been "searching for!"
There were a number of very encouraging reports after the program. Our follow up Bible study begins right away.
Titus 2:11 “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men.”
