End of kindergarden for Oli

Oli finished his 3 years of kindergarden. Oli has meet there a good friends and learned a lot of things. We are proud on him and thankful to God for giving us such great experience through the staff and teachers that Oli had.

We pray that he will keep good and look forward to a new phase of his life in elementary school.

We have had a long proces on making good decission on which school he would go. We have prayed and fasted and ask for wisdom and finally we have decided to ask Oli to decide for him self. He didnt know but then there was a event that helped him and us to decide. I'll write about it in next blog.

After the KPM I was ready and my family was ready to go somewhere where we could rest and gain new strength and vision. We have got offer by JV board to come for free of charge and spend few amazing days among 120 other JV missionaries. We praise God for this provision.
On the last day they had a surprise prepared for us. They took us all to the beutiful ZOO. On the way to the ZOO I was sitting near to Dawe Patty and had some meaningful disscussion. I also invited him to come and be main speaker for the National youth workers conference.

Banska Bystrica - challenge

One of my 23 cousins lives in Banska Bystrica (2 hours drive from Zilina). For last 20 years we have not seen each other very often. As a small boys we use to play together in our grandparents yard. We use to ride home made wooden car on their street that went down hill...

Well recently we met at the place I would never imagine. I took all (3) kids on my bicicle and went of for a ride. On the way around our damm I have got a coll from a friends telling me that at one castle there is a old age presentation program and that they can get us in the castle for free. I thought well I didnt plan to go that far but if kids gona have good fun I will do it. I have got there it took me Hour and half and it was fun.
On the way bacek just at that castle I am sudennly seeing my cousin Slavo Poloha. I could not believe to see him and his family. What a surprise. And so I have invited them to visit us that day. They came and shared a lot of what God is doing in their city and church. Slavo is the pasto of this little free evangelcial church and Mata is a school director of elementary school that is organized by their chruch. This is very unique in slovakia as there are only 2 such schools.http://www.narniabb.sk They also explained us how God is oening the doors for the parents to visit church more often and how much could be done. THEN THEY TURNED TO US AND SAID: "COME AND HELP US. MOVE TO OUR CITY AND HELP US IN THE CHRUCH WITH KIDS AND PARENTS." Wow. What a chellenge.
I have not expected this question at all. We have been in Zilina exactly 10 years. I suddenly didn know what to say. We promised to come to visit...
