Slovakia

Gypsies for Christ’s links with the Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship led the organisation to Slovakia in 1997 and when the English missionaries relocated GFC picked up the gauntlet.  In May 2000 an apartment was acquired in Partizanske as a base for the Eastern European work and a great effort was made to work alongside the Slovak and Gypsy people.  Evangelistic work was done and clothes, shoes, food and medicines were distributed.  Various projects were initiated – Dorcas Handicrafts for the women, English language classes, and the Sharon Project to provide gardening work for the unemployed – which met with some success and the English classes in a local school proved popular with the students.

In the summer of 2008 it became very clear to GFC that the work in Slovakia was over.

“There is a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven.

A time to be born and a time to die.

A time to plant and a time to harvest.”

(Ecclesiastes 3:1,2)

The apartment was sold and GFC now continues to operate from its London office at
