During the month of June we had the privilege to convene yet another seminar for women, this time among the Turkish minority in the Nadezhda neighborhood of Sliven. This part of the minority ghetto is not visited very often, which is why we decided to do the seminar right there in the Light CoG (Pastor there is Ali Durakov).   We arrived and saw that the church hall was already filled with over 25 women – young and old. They were eager to receive knowledge from the Word of God. Of course, before we started with the teaching, we had a time of praise and worship – it was interesting for us to try to sing in Turkish: )) The main speakers were Raina, Veska, Pepa and Margarita. They spoke from their hearts, with wisdom and depth. Their main topic was the place of the women for the building of God's Kingdom. The audience was very attentive and everyone showed great interest. Many women came to us at the end and asked and begged us to visit them again in the near future – something that we will definitely do!
