A national youth initiative is being launched this month in the Czech Republic. That's the word from International Needs David Culross. Culross says students across the country will have the opportunity to hear the Gospel. "This is a campaign in which all 3,700 junior and senior high schools will have a Gospel witness over the next three years. It will touch the lives of some 400,000 students. This campaign will be carried out with what we would call school assembly programs." According to Culross Christians are welcome in schools to talk about Biblical moral and ethical standards. He says that's providing opportunities for evangelism. "What we're actually finding with young people in the Eastern European Theater, they don't look to authority groups or figures for immediate answers the way they used to. Now they're not looking to organized religion for answers as well, but they are very open to discuss religious topics in a non-church setting."
