& Michelle Hamilton, Brittany, Heather, Brandon, & Shannon
We
have served with SEND International in Wroclaw, Poland since 1995.
Brett originally came to Poland the summer of 1984 with the ministry
of Campus Crusade for Christ. It was here that Brett powerfully
felt the Lord calling him to return to Poland. While on a vision
trip in 1992, Brett and Michelle became convinced that the critical
need in Poland was for the extension of the evangelical churches
in Poland. Wroclaw is a city of about 800,000 people and has two
Baptist churches that together totals about 400 members (this is
.05% of the population).
In the fall
of 1996, a small group of believers began to meet in our living
room where we prayed and studied the book of Acts for one year.
Working in partnership with missionaries from Conservative Baptist
International (CBI) we have seen this core of believers grow to
25 members and begin "New Hope Fellowship." Currently, this fellowship
is in the process of registering with the Baptist Union in Poland
and evaluating sites to rent, build, or purchase for their worship
center. Brett and Michelle are involved in evangelism and personal
discipleship and see their marriage and family as a powerful witness
to the love and grace available in a personal relationship with
Jesus Christ.
