Ali & I just got back from a short break celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary in the beautiful city of Prague in the Czech Republic. This city only suffered one or two bomb raids in the war so is filled with stunning buildings all over, including 100 church buildings. Sadly, these churches now have very little to do with a faith in Christ, being mainly used as music halls. Amongst this beauty and history, there is absolutely no visible sign of a witness to the Good News of Jesus Christ. So please [ray for this city & nation… there’s a church to plant here too… maybe these pics will stir your heart!
