Of the young, the youngest daughter of this family is Margarita, Katerina who repented in 2019 in the camp in Boyany and Venya Paskar, my nephew from my brother. All these young people were in the camp in Boyany and repented. Thank God that the Lord prompted them to conclude and covenant with Jesus Christ. We are grateful to God that the Lord heard the prayers of all of us who prayed for Katerina. Her parents are unbelievers and they did not allow her to go to the meeting, and now everyone was present at this evangelization and even congratulated Katya and gave her bouquets with flowers - Thank God!

We pray that the Lord will strengthen their young faith and that they serve the Lord and be blessed for the rest of their lives.

Tanya was the leader in the 2019 camp in Boyany and worked with the children in Sunday school in our church. We will certainly miss her, but what can you do.
