The beginning of December we had a candy cane outreach on the campuses in Kosice and Presov. A church in America supplied us with 1500 candy canes! We stapled 1000 candy canes to an article that shares the gospel through the story of the candy cane. We handed them out to students on their way to and from classes. We also filled 500 holiday bags with a candy cane, the article, and a gospel tract and did surveys with students while handing them out in the dorms. We got into some great conversations and have many contacts to follow up next semester. We also got an incredible answer to prayer. While handing out candy canes in Presov, Aaron met a Christian guy who wants to help him start a Bible study! We currently have one Slovak guy involved with the our ministry right now (and 5-6 girls) so we have been praying specifically this semester to find some guys to be potential leaders in the ministry!
Here’s a picture of us assembling the bags…we were covered in them!
