Very often during the day at home, work, etc., I think about what all of humanity is going through. Usually, people who live in the U.S. don?t know how the rest of the world is living, even though TV has a lot of information to offer and very often passes the limits of reality with enormous fantasy.

Until a year ago, I lived in Albania where I also attended an evangelical church for about 2 years.

I thought coming to the U.S. was going to be a new experience in my life, but I was worrying about how my relationship with God was going to be.

Being a member of The People of Truth church, and participating in all the meetings has helped me to know more about God, and for the first time I am doing a work for him.

I started an Albanian edition of the Bible Guys and sent it to the Christians in Albania. I published it this winter with the very precious help of my Brother David McNabb.

As many of you know, the situation in Albania, and especially in Kosovo, is critical and many people die every day from the killing machine of the Serbian Army and Police forces.

I sent the newsletters and having not received an immediate answer from the church in Albania, I really was a little upset. But it wasn?t too long before I received 3-4 e-mails from the church there and from other Christians that had read the newsletter.

Everybody expressed appreciation for receiving the newsletter and considered it of great value. After this, we received more letters from them, some of which contained many questions, which encouraged us to publish a second issue this spring.

It is really wonderful how the Christians in Albania are working day and night with all of their energies to help the refugees from Kosovo which are now in a desperate moment both psychologically and financially.

It is in hard times and long sufferings that people, having exhausted all other sources of hope and joy, turn to the living God and find the real peace, joy and love in His grace and salvation.
