We were all a little nervous as we waited to see how many people would attend the lecture in Brno. The last couple of efforts were so poorly attended the guys there had about come to the conclusion that this approach had lost its usefulness. They had some optimism based on the topic they had requested. They thought a publically advertised lecture on the Dead Sea Scrolls had a good chance of success. They were correct. The turnout far exceeded anything we had imagined. In addition to the Christians, we had 20 visitors. After the lecture, they took all the material that was available and three of them stayed and visited until it was time we needed to leave the rented room. The potential for further contact is exciting and it was wonderful to see the brethren there so encouraged.
