Men's home Novi Sad |
Do you remember we presented project Raskrsce Teen Challenge, Serbia, back in 2012? We visited both the men's and women's home in Novi Sad and we were able to donate 4,500 euro for the work among the addicts, homeless and prostitutes in Serbia. This was made possible because of your quick responses to our plea for help.
Besides that, we were able to help them with a monthly gift throughout 2012. We have stayed in contact with Sasa and Svetlana Ivanovic, the founders and directors. We met again at a European conference, of course we receive their news letters and we have been e-mailing back and forth.
Lovely dinner with Sasa and Svetlana |
These are men and women that have decided to seriously seek help to end their addictions. In the Teen Challenge centers they will encounter the love of Christ and (often for the first time) learn about Biblical principles and truths.
The word about the Christian rehabilitation program in residential centers gets out through Teen Challenge street outreach and prevention work at schools.

It is still difficult to find sufficient finances for the day-to-day operation of both centers. That is why we want to support the work again, in 2014. This time with a gift of 3,000 euro. We know for sure that will be a great encouragement to the staff, students and volunteers at the beginning of a new year.
If you have a heart for this work, please do not hesitate to send us your donation!
