CCX Lviv Graduation party 2011

This Wednesday we've had our last meeting of the semester and our final PIZZA PARTY (which became a good tradition now)! This semester was kind of hard, since we were not in L'viv for almost a month (when we went to Passion Ft.Worth and then our vacation) and overall students were hard to gather all at the same time...:-) You know how it is. So, for this meeting we wanted to get everyine together for one last time this semester.
"This evening I was reminded once again, that God is there, He's big and I am very small. I should remember about this!"
We thank the Lord so much that he allowed so many people to come. Some, whom we haven't seen for many, many month, but also 5-7 new people, who have never been to CCX meetings before. We had students from L'viv Conservatory, Polytechnic university, State University and Culture Institute. The name of the party was Indescribable: The Misteries of the Universe and we've based it on Louie Giglio's lecture "Indescribable". TURNED OUT REALLY well... One of the girls, who was at the meeting said at the end: "I was born in a penticostal family and went to church most of my life. But later I've got frustrated with the church and people there. When I left my parent's house and went to the university for couple of years now, I've lived far from God. This evening I was reminded once again, that God is there, He's big and I am very small. I should remember about this!"

We also had some games, sontests and a GREAT DISCUSSION, after the lecture, which at the end WE HAD TO STOP, cause people got so fired up talking about God in their lives. I also had a chance to tell people about importance of their personal relationship with the Lord and they should read the Bible taking it as a foremost authority.

Again, special BIG thanks to all our team of volunteers: Andriy, Vira, Alina (great decoraitions), Tolik and Taras - for the help in organizing this PARTY!! Without your help it wouldn't have happened. We also thank New Horizon's church of L'viv for the opportunity to meet in their appartment. Overall, the Lord has once again been faithful allowing us (even with all our busyness and lack of time) to finish the semester STRONG and look confidently into the future of CCX L'viv as we await Misha and Irena - our staff workers - to come and join the work here in September 2011. Please keep praying for CCX Ukraine and God's work in the hearts of Ukrainian students!!
