Mission Trip

 

Mission Trip - Summer, 2005

 

Host Missionary:

Pieter and Nora Kalkman. Learn more about ministry of the Kalkmans by visiting their profile under the "missionaries" section of our website at http://www.internationalministries.org/profiles/profile.asp?id=605

 

Project Location:

The location of the project is in Ceske Budejovice. The climate in the Czech Republic is temperate, with average daytime temperatures in the 80's. Rain falls mostly in the summer months.

 

We will be working with our Czech brothers and sisters to help them build a Youth Center in Ceske Budejovice. This Youth Center will provide programming for community students.

 

The Youth Center site is strategically located next to a complex of apartment buildings (flats) that house high school students. During the week, these students come to the city from the countryside to attend classes in the local schools. They live in these flats during the week and return home on the weekends. The Czech Baptists have a vision to provide ministry programming targeted specifically at these young people to expose them to the Gospel. Programming will include sports, games, tutoring, mentoring, and a club-type program within a Christian atmosphere. There is more information about the Youth Center and associated Baptist church at the following website: http://www.bjbcb.cz/stavba/en/fotogalerie.html

 

During your time in the Czech Republic you will have the opportunity to work side by side and interact with Czech Christians, serving with them and learning from them. About 80% of Czechs consider themselves to be Christians. However, partly due to the influence of Communism for the past several decades, the link to religion may involve more of the country's historical heritage than personal belief in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Come along and learn how the Czech Christians are addressing this issue and how it all fits together in the Czech Baptist Union's vision for ministry.

 

You will also be able to experience Czech culture in the beautiful city of Prague. You will see many historical sites and beautiful architecture in Old Town Square. We will take a tour of the city and come to understand a little bit about the history of the Czech Republic and her people.

 

The Czech people are warm and friendly and will welcome you with open arms. You will have the opportunity to build relationships with the people you will work alongside that will last a lifetime! As you work alongside the Czech Christians you will have the opportunity to share your personal story of what Christ is doing in your life, and will open the doors for others to share their stories as well.
