Bay Area International Ministry - POLAND
At Oak Grove Park we overheard a group of ladies speaking Polish as they were sitting on a bench and watching their children play. I asked them if they spoke Polish in their language. A bit shocked, they responded in their language that they were indeed speaking Polish. Come to find out they were all relatives originally from a border town in Poland near Germany. I was able to share with them that I had been a missionary in Poland, working with social orphans in Piotrkow-Trybunalski. They have a friend who lives in that city. We conversed for a while about many things such as family and religion. They are Catholic which is no surprise as most of Poland is Catholicity. I guess there is a Polish language class that is offered at the Catholic church in Pleasant Hill. It was neat to once again shine the light of Christ among the people of Poland. We hope that Papa God connects us with even more Poles locally.
