This week we have a small group of ladies from a church in Texas. They are friends of Joe and Julie’s and are here specifically to work with the Roma ladies in our congregation. They are also working with ladies in nearby Slovakia later in the week. Pray for them as they minister to these dear ladies who so need a word of encouragement and Christian love as part of their lives. The team will also work with children during the week. Dawn went with them today to assist and she had a blessed time. God bless their efforts!
