Visit to the States

Years back, we decided that before our kids are school age we would try to visit the States every two years. We will be making our next visit from September 2012 to January 2013. Our purpose in coming is threefold: 1. To visit family and friends. 2. For Jeremy to study at Gordon-Conwell Seminary during the fall semester. 3. To renew our relationships with our supporters and continue to find new ministry partners. As we prepare for our visit we have several needs that we haven’t had in the past. The first is an affordable vehicle that can fit three car seats inside during our five month stay in Massachusetts. Secondly, we are looking for two car seats —for  a one year old and a two-and-a-half year old. If you know of anybody who would be willing to rent their vehicle for even part of that time, please let us know. The same goes for the car seats. If you have any information or questions towards this end please send an email to Jeremy at jeremy.bohall@gmail.com. Thanks! ...

While we are still involved in many of the same aspects of our ministry, God has also been leading us to work more with families in our church. This spring we hosted two couples nights (picture below) and Petra started the first nursery in the church.  Being more intentional with the families in our church has turned out to be a mutually encouraging aspect of our ministry. Unfortunately, couples are a demographic frequently neglected in many local Croatian congregations. That’s not to say that we no longer work with the youth. As we told you in our last update, many of them graduated last year and we’ve been seeking wisdom as to how to go forward. This spring we’ve begun discipling several of the teenagers we met through English and baseball ministries. Petra has a weekly Bible study with two teenage girls while Jeremy meets regularly...
