The Hoppe Family Fall 2008 Missionay Update

Nathan Hoppe (10/13/2008)

ummer 2008 proved to be a very productive time here in Albania. One of the highlights was leading summer day camps in Kosovo. These camps are a ministry of love to students who suffered terribly during the war. They are not religious camps, which enables them to be held in Muslim villages. This year we had five camps lasting four days each, with approximately 1,800 children participating. We pray that our work in Kosovo will help to heal the wounds of the past and open a brighter future for all the people of that region.

Gabriella has worked tirelessly to assist me in my efforts in launching several new programs here. God has blessed me with her as my wife, and Tristan and Katherine are delighted to have a mother again. We are pushing to create a stronger Orthodox community here in Albania, and we are keeping very busy. Please keep us all in your prayers.
