Curtis and Sara Hobbs

Reaching and Equipping a Generation of Students to Change Their World for Jesus

 

Curtis and Sara and their two children are in Krakow, Poland working primarily with students on the university campus.  Here is a summary of a report from them.

 

Combine spiritually inspirational worship and teaching with evangelistic outreaches and evening concerts and you get the Polish Pentecostal Youth Camp!  This powerful combination not only changes the participants, it transforms the host city.  This year the camp was in the Northern area.

 

Connect ’09 – The annual training event of Students for Christ included more than 90 participants from more than 15 countries.  We facilitated a “coaching pod” of Polish and Czech attendees.  Our focus was to help apply the things we were learning as we set goals and plans for the year of student ministry ahead.  

 

Encounter 2010 – We are already planning for next summer’s conference in Budapest, Hungary.  This will be a global version of Connect and will include training and equipping as well as hands-on ministry through Convoy of Hope (humanitarian aide), Save Europe’s Children (children’s ministry) and street evangelism.  The goal is to plant a new church and ignite student ministry.  Your on-going prayers for this event and those of us planning it are greatly appreciated!

Gary and Iris Murphy: The Road Back to God

    For Gary and Iris Murphy, the path to full commitment to Christ was a winding trail that led them to their relationship with God today.

    Both Gary and Iris grew up in Christian homes.  Gary was raised in Tujunga and feels he knew God as a child.  But as an adult, he drifted from his faith, and instead of church, he took up motor cross racing on Sundays.  Ironically, his love of motor cross brought him back to Christ — Christians in his racing group met together each Sunday before the races to talk about God and pray together.  The influence of these racers helped bring Gary back to God!

    Iris grew up on Staten Island and in Brooklyn, New York.  She attended church with her family, and accepted Christ around the age of 12 when a woman in the church challenged her, “When are you going to get right with God?”  But eventually, as an adult, Iris moved away from her faith, married a non-believing man and lived a life of partying and drinking.  They divorced and Iris, having moved to San Bernardino, visited a Christian counselor who helped her get a new start with Christ. She began to grow and heal–as a person, in Christ, and in God’s Word.

    As singles, Gary and Iris met through a church they were both attending. They married and are now attending SBCC. Gary is a Royal Rangers leader and Iris belongs to a women’s Bible study led by Charlotte Jenkins and Stacie Black. 

    The Murphys say, “We love Pastor Sam and the way he opens up the Word each Sunday,” and the friendliness of the people at SBCC.

    If you haven’t yet, get to know Gary and Iris and their son, Justin.  You’ll love them!
