April in Banja Luka and Bulgaria

I got back to Banja Luka at the beginning of April and hit the ground running!

Week 1 - hosting a team from YWAM Hurlach:

They are an organisation who has partnered with our church for many years, and currently help the church with finances for various humanitarian projects - e.g. wood and chickens. More info on the conference on their website: TEN-UK
