Glory to Jesus Christ,
I have been meaning to write for a long time, but because of my many duties I can't keep up even with the basics. We cut back and delegate whatever we can – I filed the taxes for 2023 and 2024 each time later, as soon as it was possible.
Today I am flying to Prague for work, and on Friday we travel to Poland – but it is thanks to these journeys that today I can take a little time off and finally write you this email.
We began serving in Mútnik in 2017. They were hard but beautiful years – full of struggles, hope, prayer and building work. A year ago, however, the doors closed.
Klenovec is not finished. Quite the opposite.I began in Klenovec as early as 2012. Slowly, quietly, with a prayer on my lips. Klenovec is alive. Every week.
I am a priest now. But our schedule has not changed.In June 2024 I was ordained an Orthodox priest and sent to a Roma village 45 min from the Ukrainian border.
A new chapter: KačanovToday I serve in a new Roma parish in eastern Slovakia, in the village of Markovce. And we are building something new next door, in the village of Kačanov. We want to build a simple wooden space there – a classroom, a place for prayer, for teaching, for the children.
