HUB prayer bulletin

The year 1996 sounds so long ago now, the year when two young people, Andy and Faye Mayo came to

Serbia and started the Bible school, back then located in the North of Serbia, in Bački Petrovac. How much

effort, courage and faith was needed to start something like this in this re-

gion! Who could have even thought what the future would bring, what fur-

ther steps the School would take and where God would lead us.

God is amazing! We have been witnesses of His guidance, grace and care

throughout all of these years. We give thanks to Him for having been so

faithful to prosper and develop the Bible school ministry, and for making it a

blessing to nations across the Balkans. So far, there have been altogether 350

students of the Bible school, and today we can see them as leaders, servants,

and initiators of many things in churches, organizations and mission fields

across the region. Amazing!

Many of you who are reading this have been a part of all this. You have been

praying and supporting this ministry all these years. God has blessed many

people through you. Thank you for your faithfulness and endurance over the

years.

Here we are now, with our 20th generation of students. We

have 22 students here, who go forth through what God

calls them: to study the Scripture, to grow spiritually, and

to become equipped to take the gospel all over the world.

This is the vision of the school and our prayer for them – we want

churches strong, the Gospel proclaimed, and God glorified!

“The HUB Bible school is a place of an immense importance for my spiritual growth and knowing God. I would recommend it not only to those Christians who are preparing for ministry, but

also to every believer.” Igor Mudri, student, Serbia

“The most blessed time of my life is precisely this year that I’m spending at HUB. I’ve experienced a real spiritual refreshment, a true peace and joy

in many areas of my life. I am blessed through the growth in knowing God and His word, through the improvement in communication and fellowship

with the students, and knowing myself, my gifts and my new visions for

ministry better. Magdalena Nikolova, student, Macedonia

For the first time at HUB, we organized family camps for parents with disabled children and children treat-ed for cancer. What a privilege to serve them and be a part of something like this! From volunteers to each

family and child, we were all so blessed that it’s hard to express with words. After much work and many preparations we expected it to be good, but it even exceeded our expectations. We would like to go on with this and have such and similar camps in HUB next year too. Please pray for this, join us in this, encourage

others to pray, support us either by volunteering or helping a family financially, so that they can be here. We trust it will be a blessing for you.

We believe that serving these families and children

who are going through the most difficult life experi-

ences is precisely what Jesus would do.

Here is an impression of some families after the camp:

„It was only at your camp that we felt like people. Only

at your camp did we feel that someone really cared.

Only at your camp did the emotions become overwhelming. You and your volunteers treated our children

like people, and the amount of faith, hope and love that you gave to us parents had to bring about all those

tears, and then a feeling of huge gratitude. You did it all with measure, sincerely, without condescension

and connivance. Only people pure and persistent in their faith can do that.“

At this link, please, take a look at the video with a song that marked our summer camps.

Sara

Thank you so much for praying for Sara and our family. God stays faithful and

we are happy that she’s recovering well. There are no signs of disease, which is

fantastic. Even though many things we are now facing and those that are coming

are not easy, we are convinced that God gives us strength and guides us step by

step. We want to be and stay faithful to Him for Sara’s and our future. Please

keep praying for Sara, for us, for wisdom, for patience in our further steps and

plans in every day and every challenge that we face. Thank you wholeheartedly.

Thank you for standing with us and HUB and Bible school ministry all these years. God is faithful and

meets all our needs according to the riches of His glory (Philippians 4:19).

In the end we want to pray for you with the words of Apostle Paul: ’...be strengthened with all power ac-

cording to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience...’ (Colossians 1:11).

Your sincerely,

Sladjan and Jaroslava Milenković, with HUB team and students
