Moving into 2018, we at Healing Hearts Balkans would like to thank all our friends and subscribers for their support and participation throughout the past year. As we reflect on all the amazing accomplishments of 2017…
As the temperatures of spring began to increase, so did the waves of new refugees that were attempting to reach Europe from the Mideast and Africa. We are thankful that we were able to once again be God’s hands of supply to so many!
Here is Jeff’s account of flying over the Atlantic at the time of 9/11, and his 5 day stay in Newfoundland, Canada:

We had worked with refugees from the Balkan wars of the 90’s for over 20 years in Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Kosovo, and Serbia, but this latest flood of refugees from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and other countries of the Mideast and Africa was on a level that we had never experienced before.
Healing Hearts Balkans publishes a quarterly newsletter to let all our partners and friends know what we have been up to over the previous few months. We invite you to take a look. Please fill up the contact form if you would like our news delivered directly to your Inbox as soon as it comes out.
This Christmas has been a very special time for us, as we have been able to share the reason for the holiday season with refugees from the Mideast and Africa.
In our continuing effort to relieve the suffering of the thousands of refugees that are crossing through southern Europe from the Mideast and Africa in an attempt to enter the EU, we have had the opportunity to volunteer with a Slovenian charity that is helping to run a refugee transit center that can hold up to 5,000 refugees at one time.
