Because I delivered the poor who cried for help and the fatherless who had no helper.
The blessing of him who was about to perish came upon me and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.

For I delivered the poor when he cried out, the fatherless and the one who had no helper. The blessing of the undone came upon me, and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.

Mission Trip Kosovo
|
|
From July 15th to 22nd, we went to Kosovo with a team of 9 people. We look back on a very beautiful and special journey where we were able to encourage and help many people. We supported the local church by sharing our testimonies, evangelizing, and financially blessing them. After church, we visited a family where at least 40 children from Roma families had gathered.

We shared a beautiful children's story about self-esteem and had a water balloon fight and various games. In addition, we had a wonderful afternoon with children sponsored by Project Held, where we were allowed to hand out many children's toys. Love to see all those happy faces!

We spoke with a father of one of the children and asked him about his dream. He desperately wanted a chainsaw so he could start cutting wood to sell it. Some of our team went with him the next day to buy a chainsaw, and he was overjoyed!

He will use this together with two other men, so three families have been helped with this. It's wonderful to be able to help in such a practical way and to make a difference for these wonderful people.

We were also allowed to visit many families and the elderly in their homes. These are people who are very lonely and have almost no money. We heard truly difficult stories. We gave them a food package and prayed for them.

On one of our last days, we visited the home of an elderly couple. They were very sweet people who had already endured so much hardship in their lives. The man had throat cancer, and now he literally has a hole in his throat and can no longer speak. He is so sad and frustrated that he can no longer communicate verbally that we are going to explore how we can help him.

This beautiful couple has to live on €100 per month. They are very poor. We are eager to help them and have included them in our sponsorship program. If you would like to sponsor one or both of them, please send an email to [email protected]. If you would like to read more about our adventures in Kosovo and Northern Albania, please visit our website for more detailed reports and photos of this special journey.

We want to thank you for your support. Without you, we can't help so many people! On behalf of the Project Held team, we wish you a happy holiday!
