The Governor of the Toplica region invited Jim to do a presentation on Linking Partners, and to follow with a seminar on Time Management. This was held in the city hall, which functions as the capital of the Toplica Region in Serbia. We are always happy to participate in projects that benefit the city where we are working. We are proud that the governor recognizes the good work that Marijan and Slavica are doing, and the positive effect it has on the community.
Afterwards, the governor invited us to lunch to discuss how he could help us in our work, and we could benefit the city. We talked about things that would make the Toplica region more attractive to business investments, and the possibility of bringing a team of businessmen over to assess and make recommendations. We also discussed the need for larger meeting space that Marijan and Slavica have as they go about their work with the children, English classes for both children and teens, tutoring, community events, and church meetings. Today, we will be looking at a house that is owned by the city and the governor feels would be suitable for our needs and is available! Pray with us that this will work out, and our partnership with the city will continue to be of benefit to all of us!
