The Depth We Desire

Hello dear friends and family. Thanks again for following along with us the last ten days. We had an invigorating yet draining time in Cieszyn. Our constant level of energy and spiritual readiness was much due to those of you back home who were actively praying for us. Thank you!



In looking over this blog and getting some feedback from close friends and family, I found out that we missed something. We missed telling all of you about the importance of why we did what we did and went where we went. We told you all about the fun and the facts but forgot about the depth of those experiences. And that's not necessarily a good thing.

This blog, Serving in Poland, is here to keep those of you up to date on our experience in Poland. Some of you already know the importance and intricacies of what our mission involved. This blog will continue to house those experiences as we recount them. I invite those of you who desire to know more and dig deeper into what we experienced over to my personal blog: trevinhoekzema.blogspot.com.

Over there, I'll take the next week while we reacclimate to give you a deeper insight into our experiences in Poland. Here's a couple things I plan to cover:
  1. Brief background on Christianity in Poland
  2. Tomek & Damaris: Believers in a Catholic Society
  3. The Power of Prayer
  4. Our Mission Restated
  5. The Future of Jesus in Poland
At this blog, we'll share a couple more snippets with you. Some fun stuff like polish food, communicating across a language barrier, Catholic cathedral recap, and staying involved with the Otrembas.
