July/August Update

Hi Everyone!

We wanted to thank all of you who prayed for us this summer... it was an amazing summer and we are so blessed to be a part of what Jesus is doing in and through the ministry here at Calvary Chapel Bible College Europe.

A Vision For Life:

Shaun summed it up like this, "Over the last six weeks i got to witness 24 people meet with Jesus, and watched their lives changed. Hard to part, but glad to know they leave here with more of Him." It was such an impacting 6 weeks. They had Bible classes, went on various outreach trips to Austria, Serbia, and throughout Hungary, went camping & rafting in Slovenia, participated in serving here at the college for our conferences, and half of them got baptized by the end...and in the midst of all these things Jesus met each of them in a deep way, and by His grace we, the staff and interns, got be a part of it. We are so thankful that each of them took a step of faith by coming here and see what Jesus had in store for them. They each left here having experienced Jesus taking hold of their hearts and draw them closer to Himself.

Summer:

Also this summer my sister and brother-in-law came for a visit! It was so special having them here at the Bible College. We also took them on a little road trip to Slovenia, Italy, and Austria! It was Jude's first road trip in Europe.

Fall Semester:

Our fall semester is now upon us! Students arrive this week and school starts officially on Monday. We will have the largest semester we've had in 3 years with 90 students from 17 different countries! We are so excited that God is bringing each one of these students here to grow closer to Jesus.

Shaun will be teaching three classes this semester, Galatians/Ephesians, Evangelism & Discipleship, and Men's Discipleship. He will also be working on updating our website.

I will be helping with Children's ministry this semester for our Thursday night Chapel, and will have a Mommy and Me time at my house as well.

We are looking forward to getting to know the new students!

Prayer Requests:

-For unity with the body of believers here (staff, students, interns), that we would learn to be a family, loving and serving one another

-For the students to grow closer to Jesus

-For Shaun as he teaches God's Word and will be leading an outreach this semester

-For more and more of His grace and Spirit upon us as we serve the body here, raise our son, and grow in our marriage

-God's provision in every area of our lives

All the best in Jesus,

Shaun, Megan, & Jude
