Other way of evangelizing
God created human being unique, each of them having a sum of characteristics that offers them oneness. The way people receive and understand God’s message and His Holy Bible, depends on this oneness we were talking about. The message of the youth from Denmark, Ivan Peter Rasmusen si Rasmus Lyngholm Jakobsen, for the youth meeting that took place at Rescue Foundation, in 9th of September 2006, was about how can we find alternative ways to talk people about God, so that to fulfill one’s unique need. The most concrete examples we can find in the way Jesus interacted with people: using parables, examples, through good deeds, having supper together, spending time with children, using His own life as a model.
Saturday, the 15th of July, Rescue Foundation organized a workshop on the theme: authority inside of family. This workshop was organized as a conclusion for the project “Ready to adolescence”, project developed together with a pre-adolescent group in Speranta Church.
