From Pamala: Great news, everybody! Four young adults from our home church in Kansas City have committed to going to Croatia with us this June for ministry to the Roma!

For ten days, they will accompany us (Todd, Pamala, Daniel, and Ariela) to the same Roma village in Sisak, Croatia, where we’ve done ministry in other years. Along with practicing here in the States, we will have orientation and training in Croatia, conduct a three-day Vacation Bible School (and possibly in a second village for another day), and host a two-day event for Roma teens!

A few more summer teamers might join us, but now, before we risk plane ticket costs increasing, we’ll go ahead and buy our tickets. For the flights and all the costs in Croatia, we need $3,000 per person for Todd, Pamala, Daniel, and Ariela. We already have $4,600 of the $12,000 needed for our family (leftover from last year's summer trip), so we currently need $7,400 more. If you want to give towards this, see how to give at the bottom of this page or online here. (This is in addition to our regular monthly support needs, so please specify that it is for project #151420 CROATIA SUMMER MISSION PROJECT.) Thank you!

I (Pamala) am currently writing the curriculum, synthesizing the different themes for each day with a Bible story from Luke, which we will act out, games to help the kids memorize the daily Bible verse, crafts, songs, and active games.

Join us in prayer for each step of this process! VBS must be understandable to the Roma mind and doable outside in an open field with 50-75 kids.

Thank you for praying for us and the team as the Lord of the harvest sends us forth.

Pamala (for Todd, Daniel and Ariela)
