After a brief visit to their
home in Latvia, the Tecklenbergs returned to the
States and participated in a “Family Leadership
Conference” for Walkersville Christian Family
Schools.
Steve modified his “F*R*E*E*” series to
add a definite emphasis on learning to live in and
enjoy the soul-freedom that is the right of all
Christians.
Both Steve and Solvita received some very encouraging feedback,
and we pray that God’s work will continue in the hearts of those who attended.

This was the 10th year that ENM has sponsored the “Romanian
Summer Camp Program”, and, as always, it was a wonderful experience.
On July 12, Steve, Solvita and Charity Tecklenberg, along with Pawel Kugler,
of Poland, joined the approximately 100 young people who gathered in the
Fagaras mountains for this week-long camp.
In lieu of a more traditional “Ministry Report”, we thought you would
appreciate hearing from the young people themselves (all quotes sic):
“Steve, Solvita and Pawel were wonderful, explaining to us very well the first 12 chapters of the book of Romans. I've come to realize I have a wonderful and powerful God...” - Imola
“This camp has always been the
engine of my spiritual revival. I received good answers to most of my
questions...I thank the Lord with all my heart for this camp...” - Stefan
"This camp in particular had a good spiritual impact on my life, helping me grow, mature, and come closer to the Lord.” - Diana
“This camp is a breath of fresh air...I live in an environment that doesn’t glorify God and opposes me consistently. However, here in the summer camp being among Christians I am encouraged...to continue my work.” - Doina
“This camp...was used for the strengthening of our souls and to get our relationship to God more close.” - Radu & Carmen
“I was so refreshed...by the sermons...from the book of Romans. (It) is so good that the concept of grace come clean, pure, noble, true and with a biblical view...this will provocate a spiritual revival in our local churches.” - Alex
**Unknown to the ENM staff at the time, the young people also produced a short video in which several gave testimony to the unique way this year’s camp was meaningful to them. When they sent us a copy, it touched us so deeply that we wanted to share it with you. Click here to watch the video**

After the camp in Romania, Pawel returned home to conduct another
camp, where he chose to teach a series on Romans again.
Pawel later reported that a number of the attendees responded positively.
Many of them had very little or no previous understanding of the Bible.
One
of the young men asked how anyone could get to heaven, if no one is righteous
- revealing that he had at least understood man’s spiritual poverty in coming
to God.
Another one said that he understood for the first time that salvation is
by grace, not by works. Please pray for continued fruit in the lives of these
young people.
