SWAT REPORT # 63 08-10-06 "Likewise all the men of Israel which
had hid themselves in mount Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, even they
also followed hard after them in the battle." 1Samuel 14:22
In the passage above Jonathan, by way of simple confidence in the Lord acts against the
enemy and in so doing not only wins the victory but inspires those who previously had
hidden themselves from that same enemy. David also was an inspiration to great and mighty
acts for the Lord and against the enemy. Jonathan the son of Shimeah the brother of David
slew a giant in the honor of his famous Uncle King David. Any servant of the Lord
regardless of age, experience, fatigue, or many other things that could discourage them
should strive to inspire another generation to be bold for our Lord.
ANOTHER FANATIC MAKING HIS DEBUTE
Mirci Pricop is a young man of about 20. He is a student in a Bible college on the other
side of Romania which does not emphasize publick ministry. He came in contact with our
ministry about 3 months ago. He liked our conversations concerning P.M. and asked if he
could return and go out with us. He came again a couple of weeks ago and he did go out in
the center of Brasov with us. We were having a particularly difficult time with the police
at that time and so were not at our usual liberty. He chose not to preach and we approved
that. Well, he liked what he saw of P.M. and took it home. He is out of school for the
summer and decided to start his own ministry on the streets of his hometown. In photo #
6301 you see Mirci preaching on his own motivation for the first time in his own city. I
gave him a copy of my books on P.M. and he took it from there. In photo #6302 he is
singing with guitar and some recruited friends. He is musically inclined and we hope to
supply him with an accordion soon. He saw my magnetic bumper stickers and asked about
them. I gave him some which immediately were fitted on his car.
Buuuuuuuttttttttt
that was not enough for him
give the bumper stickers to the
babes in Christ
he went and had his car professionally lettered for the Lord
the
only one in Romania to my knowledge
look at him and his gospel car in photo #6303. I
wish the Lord would give some of these fanatics into our ministry
we could use the
young zeal and fearlessness displayed by this fine young man. Praise the Lord for anyone
who is unashamed of our Lord Jesus and especially for all those who are aggressive to make
his faith and confidence known. Like his mentor, Jonathan of old, who knows how many
others Mirci may inspire through his simple acts of faith and confidence. Please pray for
Mirci to continue in his zeal as he grows in the grace of our Lord.
RACOS IS GROWING
We confess to being slightly disappointed in the grand opening of our new church in Racos
village but this week we had a decent crowd to preach to. We had 60 children and about 20
adults. Notice in photo 6304 I had some help with the music. This old preacher is old
enough to be Bill Clinton's grampa but he has a good spirit and makes a joyful
"noise" for our Lord that "adds" to the service. We encourage his
participation and anyone else who wants to do anything right in the name of the Lord. Next
week we have a group of 18 coming from USA. Joe Cammilleri, Chuck Zander and a slew of
others will be helping us to evangelize and up the attendance in both Racos and Budila.
Stay tuned and we will try to keep you informed. Pray for both these great efforts.
"CONTINUING
WITH ONE ACCORD
IN THE TEMPLE AND BREAKING OF BREAD FROM
HOUSE TO HOUSE
WITH GLADNESS AND SINGLENESS OF HEART." Acts 2:46
We had our first church-wide fellowship at Bro. Logan's home this past Saturday and all
had a good time of fellowship
plenty of games and food

We have another baptism scheduled for this Sunday afternoon

a bold a witness to the heathen around us as was our other two baptisms.
