AppMatthew - Mid-Week Bible Study

Tomorrow evening we'll have our AppMatthew (Applying Matthew's Gospel), our series of Mid-Week Bible Studies in which we'll keep interacting with what we're learning through the preaching in our Sunday services

We'll meet at the Bookshop-Café La Terza Stanza, in Budrio. Stefano will lead this time where, as church-family we'll engage with Matthew 25.

#exchangebudrio22 Camp - DAY7 - Sunday Service & PicNic @ the Park

7th day at the 2022 English Sport Camp Exchange Budrio.

This morning we had our Sunday Service 
for the campers' families of the  
2022 English Sport Camp Exchange Budrio.

We had a great turnout of kids and parents.
Indeed there where more than 100 people


 

 
Stefano preached from 1 Peter 2:24, challenging parents & kids to think about the discovery that Peter made about his best friend - "He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed."

 

We had the visit of Debora, the new mayor of Budrio who thanked us for our work & presence in the community!

We are so thankful to the Lord for the great time we had engaging with families and kids. Many of them very happy to receive a New Testament and to be informed about our programmes during the year!

After the service we had a great time at the PicNic at the Park with beautiful baskets made by our friend Eleonora from the Cuoremio Bakery, who's often hosting and feeding our Seekers Club kids!

#exchangebudrio22 Camp - DAY6 - Service Project

 

 

6th day at the 2022 English Sport Camp Exchange Budrio.

 

 

 

 

 

This morning we engaged Italian & American campers in our Service Project in partnership with Budrio Town Hall




We did some painting and cleaning jobs in the local Middle School in Budrio, where most of kids go to school. This year as church we rented the conference hall of this school, so this was a good opportunity to strengthen our relationship with our community. 



It was very encouraging to see many local kids working alongside some parents and our church members!

#exchangebudrio22 Camp - DAY5 - The Restoration of Peter

 

 

5th day at the 2022 English Sport Camp Exchange Budrio.

 

 

 

This morning Daniela, from La Rocca Church, led our fifth Talk from John 21:3-19, showing kids how Alberto's love for Luca drove him to sacrifice himself for him! Yet Jesus did more than giving his life for Peter, because in his resurrection he defeated sin and death, so he was able to restore Peter, giving him his life!

Today we had lost of fun playing at Basketball and Ultimate Frisbee

 

Every afternoon Jenny taught conversational English and kids had the opportunity to engage with mother tongue speakers.

Since our first Exchange Camp in Budrio, Bethel Church of Houston, Texas, has faithfully partnered with us, sending year after year a team to make our camp possible. We’re thankful to the Lord for this great Gospel partnership!
