Mr. Robert Rukavina, president of a Christian organization Kup-Karmel, organized a pilgrimage to Međugorje on the 18th and the 19th of November, 2009. It was an unusual pilgrimage – for the homeless, for vagabonds and those that are poverty stricken. He found benefactors who provided free transportation, overnight accommodation and food. The Mother's Village responded too to this action. We welcomed these unusual pilgrims offering our testimony and served them a lunch that was prepared by the boys from the Community of the Merciful Father. |

In The Children's Village, which is a part of The Mother’s Village, there are 55 children of different age that we support and care for at the moment. The past school year (2008/2009) we had an average grade 4,2 (the school grades are ranged from 1 – the worst to 5 – the excellent) of all our children that attend school. Only six children had final grade 3, and the rest had 5 or 4. Two girls finished the high school. One of them enrolled the University in Mostar Law School, and the other goes to The Language School on the same University. The Children's Village has new children in community this year: the four children from Banja Luka, one girl from Kiseljak and one boy from Ljubuški. |

This fall we started the restoration and extending of The Day Care Center. The extending building plans include the enlarging of the kitchen, the replacement of the old roof for a new one which includes the complete roof construction, all because of the history of leaking problems. We also need the new dormitories for the children. The kitchen extendings are finished and we managed to make the foundations with base for the future dormitories by now. This undertaking is forced by the number of children attending The Day Care Center and a lack of space we have, and also with the new laws for the preeschooling organizations in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We continue with our plans and our work supported with our faith in God's providence and good people who will lend us a hand. |
