For the future we have many plans for the Roma Mission.

  1. Among the Roma people, tuberculosis has become very prevelent. Many people have this disease and the problem is that they live closely with their family and children, which is very dangerous for the children. We would like to inform people about how they can prevent this disease and how they can treat it if they are already ill.
  2. Among the Roma youth, drugs have become very popular. Because they are very emotional people and they become sexually active at a very young age, 12-13, AIDS is spreading very quickly. We would like to invite Christian doctors to inform people about this disease. As much as possible, we would like to go to different Roma communities and talk with them about disease and give them practical advice.
  3. We would like to continue the renovation of the Mission Center for the Roma children and adults so that there will be better conditions (meeting rooms, guest rooms) for the leadership trainings and the summer camps. We have a big courtyard and a big field for sports. These are not finished yet, but for the future we would like to improve these.

For these programs we also would need a minibus for transportation during the summer camp and for the information visits to congregations.

Because we have these programs and plans, we are in need of a lot of support. We ask for God's blessing for these plans and please pray for this as well. Prayer is very important in our ministry. You can pray also for the Roma nation, for the Mission Center, and co-workers that we could work for the glory of our Lord, Jesus Christ.

  • Projector and laptop - to travel to different communities to raise awareness about diseases such as tuberculosis and AIDS and for use in the Leadership Trainings
  • Loud speaker/voice projector (2 for the summer camp)
  • Footballs/soccer balls/volleyballs (approximately 25 dollars for one ball)
  • Ping pong table
