For me the Nitra home group is just getting better and better. It’s hasn’t growing significantly in size for a long time, but in depth it’s gone miles in my estimation. Over the last few weeks we have restructured the leadership into a ministry team that is in reality a pastoral team - Rado, Jaro, and myself. I takes a bit of faith to co-lead, but we have all earned each other’s trust over the years. It all hinges on a common relationship with Jesus which has produced a real joy when serving together (a bit like 1 John 1:1-4). The roles are loosely divided as such- Rado is the lead pastor/teaching, Jaro is a teaching pastor and hosts the fellowship, and I am advising Rado (as I quickly move away from being the lead pastor) and teaching. The rotation in teaching looks like it’s going to be great as each of us brings to the table something fresh and different from the others. It’s the beauty of the Body of Christ actually acting like a body. And even though we all have different personalities and styles we all seek bring others into worshiping Jesus in both Spirit & Truth! Pray for us as we move forward into an exciting new path.
