A Word From Slovenia

The 2019 WDP theme “Come, everything is ready!” reminds me that we have to answer the invitation each day. The invited had said "Yes" and then, when the time came and their host had gone to great trouble and expense, they turned their backs on him.

Our decision to be faithful to Christian values, build ecumenical relationships, and promote World Day of Prayer is not to be taken for granted. Sometimes it is easy, but sometimes it is hard to keep promises. The theme motivates me, as Chairperson of the committee, to use my talents, time and energy for what God has planned.

People all around the world were praying with and for Slovenia. Armenian women in Aleppo, Syria and 3,000 women in South Africa – just overwhelming! I get goose bumps when I imagine that. God was already working and many miracles have happened since the start of the preparations in 2016 in Slovenia.

Being the focus of the WDP program, challenged us to expand our circle, which meant involving people who could help with the writing of the worship service materials and songs, to take pictures that represented Slovenian life, to organize activities, and to promote the celebrations.
 
As a result, two new WDP local groups were formed and two new children services were celebrated. We hope that more blessings are still to come. Also, we feel ready now to take a new organizational step. We want to grow from an informal WDP committee to a registered legal organization in Slovenia. We feel we can reach out to regions that we are not yet present in and increase participation of young women and new moms.

Our prayers are turning into action through partnerships with different organizations and groups that impact the lives of women and children. A nice relationship grew especially with Home for Mothers and ASPI centre for people with Asperger syndrome. We also are involved with the Trauma Healing project in partnership with Bible Society of Slovenia.
​
One can see the impact of being a writer country just by realizing how WDP Slovenia is evolving, growing, consolidating, and building communities… like a red carnation flower blossoming from a small bud.

I am delighted to see that many people answered the call to join the 2019 World Day of Prayer that was held in Slovenia. Many people were happy and they felt that they were enlightened with how they should live their lives. I always knew that my faith was strong enough that it cannot be shaken. But I can feel that once I get the chance to attend WDP, my soul and spirit will get deeper. My understanding with things will get bigger and I would love to experience such thing!

Its touching to know that the body of christ not only exists in Slovenia but is growing and evolving to become something much more and fast becoming a part of lives of the locals

What you put on states something, and also you should not have to settle for a store that does not supply you with specifically what you’re looking for. Below is a choice of funny white wine shirts for a glass of wine drinkers that make certain to be the best red wine present for major as well as not so severe red wine enthusiasts.
