In the evening Tim traveled to the village of Kamyanitza about 11 miles northeast of Uzhgorod . He picked up Stephen on the way and arrived to begin the Practical Christianity class by 7:00. We were delighted to have 12 students arrive to begin studying. We are offering this class on a similar level that we would in a college setting as most of the students are 18-20. We do have one older brother--about seventy, and another middle-aged fellow. We were excited to begin this class, which will be an fundamental exploration of basic Christian living. It will explore the nature of spirituality, prayer, devotional experiences, Bible study, doctrinal features of Christianity, and some practical issues in the Christian's life. By necessity this class is a survey. This is purposeful as we wish to determine the level of the students' experience. They had desired that we offer some class in theology or world religions, but we decided to go with this fundamental class first.
We were busy in the session last evening and neglected to get a picture that we could post. So next time, Lord willing, we will make a picture of the class and you may see the students.
