Низ Македонија

The day started in Skopje, and was to include a lot of travelling. I had volunteered to be part of the group going around Macedonia to encourage believers in various towns. After the morning meeting in Skopje, we drove to Veles and met with two of the leaders there.


From there to Kavardarci and meeting with a couple of Roma Christians who have a church meeting in there front room (which is about 3 metres by 5 metres), at which they get about 30 children! We met later with another Christian, then a brief drop in to a couple who told us they are atheists, but who were really interesting people to spend time with!

Down to Gevgelia, where we were at the evening meeting, and Zoran preached. The others stayed there the night, while Zoran and I went down to Thessaloniki in Greece and spent the night there!!! (that's a long way to go for the night).


Next day, back to Gevgelia after an early morning meeting with Tommie in Thessaloniki, then to Bitola, where we met two more believers who have recently started meeting together and were in need of encouragement.

Afterwards to Struga, via Ohrid, having dinner with some from the church there.


Finally we went to Gostivar, and held a meeting there with a group of enthusiastic and persecuted Christians in that town. This was about the only place where I spoke at all!! I met a girl there who is a student in Skopje and is enthusiastic about being involved in the student work with us here.

And then back to Skopje. Whew!
