From the infamous Lunik Devit, where the effect of years work, has made its impact, to somewhere that this kind of work is just beginning and then to the village near Poland. I saw God at work in each place. Lunik Devit known as the biggest Gypsy settlement in Slovakia, where the first team to work there was a team of 30 who practised leaving the housing complex before they even started their first program there, it earns its nickname “The Bronx”. There are many stories to go with the nickname.
The afternoon was children playing the game. The, what can we steal game. The adults though were listening even if the children were a little lively! (Okay maybe they were more than a little lively.)
The evening was like returning to friends, the little village of Forbassy near Poland. No church to speak of for miles, but yet there was warmth, a joy and openness to what we were doing. In the end there was the now familiar sound of voices praying, both young and old.
Sometimes I wonder what on earth I am doing. Why am I doing this? Its days like today that remind me why.

hi Sam,
Great to see and read what you're up to! Keep it going! Brings back a few memories of Ukraine! Hope in it all you're getting a bit of time out and no doubt you'll find another hat to buy!
Isaiah 40:30&31
best wishes, Alison
