Old Man Winter is Here...



Winter has arrived in Europe with blasts of frigid temperatures, thick foggy nights, and frequent snow falls. For many this is a welcome sight as they head to the mountains for skiing or frozen lakes for ice skating. Sadly for many of the Romany of eastern Europe winter brings a time of tough decisions. Homes must be heated and winter clothes/shoes are needed. Where does the extra money for these things come from? Often the choice comes down to firewood or bread, socks or medicine, coal or school books? These are difficult decisions especially when children or the elderly are involved. Please pray for resources to be provided for the Romany of Europe. Pray for us as we seek to help the Romany provide the basic needs for their families
