4,500 euro for Raskrsce Teen Challenge, Serbia!

11 women are living in this beautiful home
Hooray, hooray! The 4,500 euro for Raskrsce Teen Challenge, Serbia came in. We are delighted and honored to be able to support this ministry in Serbia. They are currently struggling financially, and with this gift we want to help them to pay off some of the bills. In the meantime they are looking for sponsors and for new ways to generate some income.

Besides the donations for this one time gift we still receive emails from people (from different countries!) who want to be a temporary sponsor on a monthly basis. Originally we had the plan to look for 50 sponsors donating $100 a month. But it turned out this amount is too high for many people. Some want to help with 30, 50 or 70 dollars, which is awesome of course! So, we have decided that every amount for monthly sponsorship is welcome. After all it is not for us to decide how much you will give, that's between the Lord and yourselves :)

So, the teller on the top of this weblog is gone, we will keep you updated through this blog on what's going on. And who knows, we will get more than 50 sponsors. Send us an email if you still want to help. We will collect the donations and send Raskrsce Teen Challenge a monthly gift as long as support keeps coming in. THANK YOU all for your support and prayers! You can make your prayers practical by printing a map of Serbia, of the Novi Sad area, and ask the Lord for our Christian family to expand! 

PS: We still need 650 euro for the new beds in the men's home in Slovenia, we'll post some more on that soon. Our next project will be Teen Challenge Netherlands, they are in desperate need of a 9 passenger van. More on that in our next post. The coming days we will be at the Transformation Conference in Ludwigslust, Germany, where we will give workshops on the person and work of the Holy Spirit. A report will follow when we get back.
