Trnovec Village

This village was a little tricky because we were meeting here in the fall outside in someones yard. Most of the kids that came we had no idea where they lived but we knew we wanted to do something for them as well. So we bought TONS of candy and nuts and made little gifts bags stuffed with that and tracts and loaded up and went out there last Sunday. Normally we would meet at 2 pm on Sunday afternoons but since winter has set in and we meet outside we had to put it off until Spring, unfortunately. We figured if we went out there at that time the kids who normally come to our meetings would see us and come running. We were trying to avoid the mobbing, which is precisely what happened! :) But it was still great and they were so grateful for what they got!
The yard we were meeting in belongs to a man named Josip. He was gracious to let us meet there for 3 months and said we are welcomed back in the Spring. We did bring his family food and gifts bags for his 4 children.
