DAY Four from Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Hello Everyone! Yes, Lynne, I am alive and well in Bosnia. Despite its tragic past, Bosnia and Herzegovina is a beautiful country with friendly people.
Today we went to the home of Lidija and Tiho. They met us in the driveway and invited us in. We were expecting dessert and coffee and to our surprise they gave us an incredible dinner. Their warmeth and passion for the Lord inspired us all. On our way back to Capljina, we stopped by the salon of Mladinka where she gave our intrepreter and wonderful friend, Tony, a hair cut. Yours truly documented the day with his cameras.
Tonight the ladies in our group are hosting Day 2 of a Jewelry making class while we guys go out with Pastor Bernard to plan a BBQ for this weekend. He is a wonderful person who has a passion for the Lord and for his fellow Bosnians.
Thats all for now. I want to personally thank all of our supporters, especially Patty Boyce who was so generous to me. Also a special thank you to Deb Avery who not only helped but inspired our whole team. God bless
Wow.. is it just me.. or does Tiho look like the Bosnian version of Andrej the Giant? I love it when big, burly men love Jesus!!

ReplyDeleteBabe, we're so grateful for you an your heart for Bosnia. We miss you but can't think of anything more worth missing you over than what you're doing there.
We love you.

PS: Can somebody please fill us in on Leland's luggage? I thought I saw it in Brazil during the simulcast tonite.
Leland, I have no doubt that you are alive and well in Bosnia, unless you're surfing. ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic photo of this family--joy and love jump off of it!
I am off to Philly tomorrow but I will continue to pray for your remaining time in Bosnia and safe travels home (WITH luggage!).
