Cheon Il Guk Czech Missionaries: Welcome to Czech - Our first few weeks

Can you guess which student is from India? It is… the cameraman haha.

Ahoj! This is Czech team checking in!

As the start of our first full week here in Czech, we jumped straight into our witnessing and outreach efforts. We would start each day by climbing up this hill where we can see the whole view of the city. As we looked upon the city, we would determine ourselves to give our best effort that day so we can leave an impact on this city, one day at a time and one person at a time.

Our CARP leader’s vision for this year is to strengthen the presence of CARP on campus and emphasize the importance of studying these universal principles that we go into. Everyday our vision is to fulfill his vision. We would talk to many students and invite them to our studies and meetings we host.

On Thursday, we held our DP talk (Divine Principle talk) which consists of college students coming

together to learn and discuss different principles in our life. This week was on the topic of “What is the deepest motivation driving my thoughts and actions?” It was cool to see that many of us were from all around the world: Russia, Germany, Ukraine, India, China, and America. Even though we all come from different backgrounds and teachings, we can see how we share these same values and principles.

We ended the week by spending time with the community. On Friday, we helped clean the first floor rooms of the Family Federation headquarters, which was filled with a bunch of stuff ranging from old clothes and camping tents, to even a couple of unused bathroom toilets. By the end of it, the room looked so different that you could never have guessed that this room was used as a storage room before. We were glad that we could offer service to the community.

The next day, there was a one day workshop for high school participants. All of them had this whole week off as it is spring break for them, so we all gathered at the Family Federation headquarters to attend. There we got to spend more time with the youth in the community, and get to know them better through sports and activities.

These last few weeks have been good, and we’re ready to go into the next! Let’s go!
