We have had a full month of wonderful moments that we won’t forget easily. We are so thankful to the Lord for all the blessings he has blessed us with. Just a few memories to share with you:
First, our family. Patrik has been so wonderful and we are so proud of our little boy. He is almost 8 months old. He can stand on his feet now and loves to hold a spoon in his hand and feed himself. And he can crawl so fast on the floor that it is almost impossible to catch him. His voice is loud and he loves to talk. Haven’t heard him say any meaningful words yet like mama or papa. But most of all, we are glad he is doing well.







Patrik’s family! Grandma Anna, grandparents Dubravka and Zvonko. uncle David & auntie Katka and uncle Sebastian. It was a family day out celebrating our move to our house.
Gloria’s parents celebrated their 10th anniversary of CEF work in Slovenia. They left their jobs to join CEF (Child Evangelism Fellowship) in 1999 and they have been a blessing to many children around Slovenia who have had an opportunity to hear the gospel for the first time in their life. They love children and are absolutely excited about continuing the work. Gloria has helped them with different weekly Good News Clubs and we both have been leaders at their summer camps for children. We are very proud of what they do and are celebrating with them.

The last week in October and in the beginning of November we lead a group of 9 youth to Northern Ireland. Miriam came with us as well to baby-sit Patrik and another couple Ales and Helena with their baby Julia. There were 15 of us all together. We have had a fabulous time there. The Irish team has been a wonderful host. They have taken us places around their town Ballymena and showed us the North coast and their capital city Belfast. We were really blessed by them. Ladies from church made us lunches and dinners. People opened homes for us to stay at. Our group was overwhelmed by love and care. We attended their Bible study group at church, youth club of Friday, church service on Sunday and youth fellowship. We were able to see how other Christians around the world live and that was inspiring. The whole trip helped our faith grow and answer some questions about God. The week was packed and busy and we were ready to fly home after a week. But we definitively want to do this again.
beautiful family photos! glad you are all well. hope to see you all again soon!
