Article in ‘Egoist’
magazine
At the beginning of October an article about Extremum was
published in the well-known worldly magazine Egoist. The material was 4
pages long. Editor Elena Kodinova asked questions mostly about our faith:
how did each one of us believe in Jesus Christ; what do we think about
smoking and alcohol; do we fast; what is fasting to us; what does ‘a
righteous Christian’ mean? etc…It’s a miracle for such questions to be
discussed in that kind of magazine. Its readers are mainly people from the
elite of Bulgaria and we believe that it was an opportunity from God for
us to witness on that level. We thank Bisera Ilieva who introduced us to
the editor and made the interview possible. |
New Wave - Lovech, Bulgaria
On 25th - 26th October 2002 the
national youth movement ‘New Wave’ meeting took place in Lovech. It opened
with a concert in the center of the old town. The band from Plovdiv ‘To
See You ’ and we performed on that concert. Thank God the weather was warm
for the season and there were several hundred people gathered on the
square - mostly teenagers. The slogan of the concert was ‘ No! to
drugs, violence and pornography’. Nowadays these things are a hit among
the new generation. We believe that the Christians must say No and show
the world The Better Way. It was great that the local TV showed the event
and took interviews from us and from one of the managers - Traicho
Stefanov. During our performance pornography magazines and occult
literature were burnt. After the concert we spoke to many young people and
some of them came with us to the church where the New Wave continued with
worship. We prayed for the new people and believe that God began something
new in their lives. |
Change
From
November 2002 Juli is no longer with the band. Perhaps you’re all
surprised. We prayed and it was hard for us to take that decision but we
believe that it is for the best. A new season is coming in our lives. We
continue in our call - Extremum and Juli will help us with the live
performances as well as with the recording of our new album. He, however,
is starting something which has been in his heart for a long time - the
founding of a Christian club - the first one in Bulgaria. We believe in
that cause and we fully support it. We are grateful to Juli for his 3-
year dedication. He is an example of a man who gives everything from
himself and burns with the desire to reach the unsaved. For more
information about the club you can write to Juli.

On 7.12.2002 the play ‘ Golden Chance’ was staged, director Anton
Radoslavov. He invited us to perform in the musical team. It was a
pleasure for us to be part of this play. Osvobojdenie cinema in Sofia was
full. We’re sorry for those who couldn’t make it to see the musical
because it was really worth it.
On 29.12.2002 we performed at O!Shipka club in Sofia. There
were more than 220 people there. Once again we had the chance to talk to
new people. |
On the 25th January
2003
had a
concert in Osvobojdenie cinema in Sofia. The concert was organized by our
local church New Generation. We thank everyone who took part in the
organization and were a great help to us. For the first time we played
with guest-musicians - Joro - synthesizer and Iva - back vocal. We also
had multimedia. A lot of unsaved teenagers came to the concert. We believe
that their point of view about Christianity was completely changed and
that God started a good work in their hearts. |
Film about Extremum
On 25th October 2002 Demo TV Sofia
showed an 8-minute film about Extremum. It contained pictures from our
every-day life and pieces from concerts and interviews. It was a great
pleasure for us to work with the reporter Kremena Hristova and the
cameraman Svilen Orozki. We want to thank Stoiko Petkov and Studio 865 who
are responsible for the first Christian program in Bulgaria ‘ In the World
of the Bible’. |
Prayer
Now, more than ever, we need your support in prayer. We
know that we’re walking in God’s call for our lives. The vision for the
salvation of the new generation in Bulgaria and all over the world is
burning in us. We need prayer partners who will call to God for us
every day. This is very important so that we can resist every attack of
the devil and so that God’s will may come to pass. Pray for us to be wise,
strong and blessed, open to hear His voice and act on His word. There’s
great power in the prayer of the righteous and we believe that God will
pour abundantly His blessings over every area in our lives - family,
ministry, finances. Pray also for a new faithful and dedicated
drummer. Thank you friends. We’re looking forward to hearing from you!
We are also ready to agree with you in prayer for whatever you
need.
