Chris writes...time is so close now we leave on Saturday.... and we are frantically trying to get all the packing done and say goodbye to our friends and extended family here while keeping things running at the kindergarten while making all the preperations for our time in the UK!! We really appreciate your prayers.

But the two stages of our time here in Kosova are bluring into one as I was starkly reminded yesterday of one of the reasons why we are coming back.......hearing about a 20 year old boy who was found dead here with a needle sticking out of his arm. The youth here are very disenchanted...corruption is rife...they have been promised much but little is happening...it is a ticking bomb.......please keep praying!!

Summer is here?

Chris writes: today, the first of June our clock is ticking ever faster. We now have 11 more days here and must admit to a real mixture of emotions...excitement at the thought of seeing the U.K. and our family and friends again, nervous at the thought of leaving the security of Humedica and Krushe, excitement at the thought of coming back to Kosova later this year and nervous of how it will all go over the summer and will we have enough support to enable us to come back at the end of September??

We know that this is the right way forward and a few months ago, just like Peter in Matt 14 we asked Jesus if He wanted us to step out of the boat and just Peter we felt He said Yes, so that is what we will be doing in 11 days time!

Please pray that we will both keep sane and use this remaining time here wisely!!

God Bless....or as they say here Zoti ju Bekoft
