Click here (https://youtu.be/3eViqfjiGoU) for a music video with pictures of many of the Roma with whom we work. In this video you will see pictures of many of the Roma children who have come to outreaches where they learn Bible stories and songs, play games and do Bible crafts. It has pictures and footage put to a song written and performed by a friend of mine, Mark Beazley, called “God Alone”.
