Proud to be British in Kosova!!

Chris writes: While the UK, Kosova and the rest of the world are gripped in Royal fever and weddings we are proud to be British and living in Kosova. Gjakova is feeling more and more like home for us as we make more and more new friends here. Despite this in just under a week we end our contract here and leave our home and will be house sitting for some other missionaries, just five minutes away, while they are away for three months. Before this we will be in Ohrid, Macedonia for a retreat with OM then will have a few days break.

We have now been here over six months and doors are opening for us in various ways. It will be exciting to see how things continue to develop when we return. Thanks for your prayers....please keep praying! Much love in Him xx

Moving forward in Kosova

Moving forward in Kosova......

Chris writes: it has been a long time since we have been here...has been a difficult and exciting time. We now know that the door has now closed on a move to the capital city, Pristina. We will still work there but not be based there. It really feels like a close shave. Moving there could have damaged things in so many ways for us. Since this became clear some exciting doors opened for us and most importantly two days after we were offered rent-free accomodation for the summer!! Wow so God IS in control!! It is useful to remind ourselves of this from time to time!
Things on the drug education front are moving forward slowly...picking up some sessions.....but am waiting for the flood gates to open but it MUST BE IN HIS TIME!!
Have now also produced a clearer statement of our vision..let me know if you want to see and pray into it
.
Have also been encouraged by a friend to pray for more of the prophetic....please pray and let me have feedback!!
In Him...xx
