June 20, 2011 Dear Friends, Many are familiar with the ministry of Nick Vujicic, a young Australian born without limbs, and a young man whose life in Christ bears a powerful and tremendous testimony that brings all of life into perspective.  If anyone has the credibility to convey the transformational power of Christ, Nick does.  ECMI missionaries to Slovenia, Sebastian and Gloria Forjan, report that the handful of Slovenian churches and their 1,500 believers sponsored a 5 city tour for Nick.  14,940 tickets were sold to hear him.  This event has unified the churches in this country, and now the tremendous work of follow-up begins.  Pray for the Forjans and others involved in this life changing ministry. Sebastian and Gloria’s ministry cannot take place without the partnership of those who send them.  Here in the United States we continue this critical work of serving behind the scenes – identifying and engaging people who will pray, go, partner and give.  You, too, share in the blessing of make that happen as you pray, go, partner and give.  Thank you for helping us reach the more than 800 million Europeans who do not know Christ. Cathy and I head to Lexington, Kentucky, tomorrow morning for our Board meetings.  Please pray for safe travels and that we will be effective in making decisions and carrying out the responsibilities God has given us. [NOTE: The board meetings and trip went very well.] With grateful hearts, George for Cathy and the family P.S.
