“And I will give them one heart, and a new spirit I will put within them. I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh and give them a heart of flesh, and they may walk in my statutes and keep my rules and obey them. And they shall be my people and I will be their God. (Ezek. 11:19-20)

THANK YOU, PCM VOLUNTEERS

What a great 2025 spring/summer season! We thank each PCM volunteer who came to serve in Poland, and each of our Polish ministry partners who made arrangements for these teams and welcomed us so well. Our initiatives ranged from building and renovation projects, to teaching English, to food/clothing distribution, to leading daily kids camps. May God receive all the glory for every good work accomplished and may the Polish churches be encouraged from our time together.

KATOWICE

It was wonderful to worship with our friends at the church in Katowice. This church is a Living Link with the Mt. Gilead Church in Mooresville, IN, and the Gethsemane Church of Christ in Mechanicsville, VA. A team from Mt. Gilead will be arriving in Katowice later this month to join in a family camp initiative. We so appreciate pastors Mirek Koziel and Mirek Pieszka, and pray much blessing over this congregation.

CSM TO TOMOKA

Adam Kosewski and his family recently visited the Tomoka Christian Church in Ormond Beach, FL. This congregation has been supporting Adam since 2015. We are thankful for Pastor Joe Putting, Connie Davis (Mission Director), and the entire congregation who are so passionate for world missions. Their commitment to our Polish ministry partners is a great blessing. Thank you, Tomoka, for loving on the Kosewski family.

TOMOKA TO SOSNOWIEC

While Adam Kosewski was visiting the Tomoka Christian Church, a team from Tomoka had just arrived in Poland to help lead a daily kids camp (VBS) in Sosnowiec. Tomoka is a Living Link with Pastor Daniel Masarczyk. The Tomoka team came to assist Daniel and the Sosnowiec church by providing crafts, games, music, and lots of love for the kids. It was a wonderful week and we pray the children experienced a special touch from God.

DABROWA GORNICZA

David Hatfield had the opportunity to worship with the church in Dabrowa Gornicza and meet with their leadership. This church has reached out in many ways to assist Ukrainian refugees, and David was able to meet one of the families for whom basic needs were provided. We are so thankful for our partnership with Pastor Jarek Sciwiarski and his wife, Lidia. We pray God will continue to use this congregation as they reach out in the name of Jesus and share His love in their city and beyond.

KINGDOM LIFE CHURCH

The “Kingdom Life” Christian fellowship in Warsaw focuses on raising up kingdom-oriented and community-relevant believers. The time of worship, testimonies of God’s goodness, powerful preaching, and sweet presence of the Spirit were a true blessing to us all. We pray God’s favor will continue to rest upon Pastor Precious Anoshiri and his wife, Priyanka, and all this body of believers as they make Jesus known in Warsaw.

FAIRMOUNT TO DZIALDOWO

A team from the Fairmount Christian Church in Mechanicsville, VA, helped lead a daily Kids Club in partnership with the Christian Fellowship in Dzialdowo. Fairmount is a Living Link with Pastor Arek Kotlewski. This was their second year to come and serve in this initiative. The week was filled with fun activities, Bible lessons, and worship, as well as English classes. We thank Chris Santasiere for leading the Fairmount team, and thank Arek Kotlewski, and his wife, Asia, for hosting and organizing the week. May much fruit come forth as a result of their efforts.

REGENERATION CAMP

We are excited about all the good reports coming from Ostróda Camp this summer. The reGeneration Camp has become a staple in the lives of the teens – a time of spiritual refreshment and re-grounding which they look forward to all year. We’re so thankful for Bartek Zdanowicz (camp director), Kyle Duba, and all the team who always invest so much on behalf of these youth. May every touch from God and every decision for Jesus become a solid reality in the hearts of these young people.

UKRAINIAN REFUGEE ASSISTANCE

In July, PCM sent $5,800 to Poland for the purpose of Ukrainian refugee relief:

1) Food distribution centers in Poland – $2,500

2) Polish churches for housing/food – $2,300

3) Transports to Ukraine from Polish churches – $1,000

PCM is committed to sending funds to help our Polish churches provide food and housing for Ukrainian refugees. Every donation is deeply appreciated. Thank you for your kindness, generosity and prayers.
