Until now, we were in three different flats around Prokuplje so we had breakfast on our own. Today, we wake at our new location, a hotel in Temerin. This allowed us to share breakfast together. After breakfast we were picked up by Saša, the Roma pastor in Kucura and Gerben, a student here on a…
Today we all had to get up and get moving a little earlier than usual. This was the team’s last day to be with our brothers and sisters in the south. We stayed up late and packed so we could load up the bus this morning before departing for Zitni Potok where we would have…
Now Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, “Oh that You would bless me indeed and enlarge my border, and that Your hand might be with me, and that You would keep me from harm that it may not pain me!” And God granted him what he requested. 1 Chronicles 4:10 He asked for…
Each year when we return to the States from Serbia, we talk about how we miss worshiping with our Roma and Serbian friends. Don’t misunderstand, we love worshiping in our home church.

Today in Prokuplje we started off reading and studying. Chuck walked around town before breakfast and saw the town waking up, going to work and moving about. He made it to the river where he saw some men fishing (not catching), it seems some things in life are universal! Of course, if you know me,…
Sunday morning in Prokuplje. What joy! In the Smith/Oswalt flat, we awakened fairly early and headed for coffee and breakfast – except for Caitlin, who slept in before our week starts hard and heavy! During breakfast we witnessed a wedding. Several young men, accompanied by one carrying the Serbian flag, as well as a band…
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31
Hello again! 🙂 On Saturday, we had our final children’s club in Arandjelovac and then in Mladenovac. There were more kids at both places! Apparently, word spreads that the clubs are fun, and so more children show up each day. It was such a blessing to get to know the children and the girls who…
