Gani thanks supporters for great trip

I was delighted to see Gani Smolica at Rising Brook Baptist Church in Stafford when he came over to the UK this autumn for six weeks to speak to his supporting churches.

Gani, pictured below, who appeared in God’s Secret Listener, has now written to say he and his family are back in ‘foggy’ Peja, Kosova, where they are working for the European Christian Mission after moving there in 2000 following seven years in Albania.


He thanked everyone for their hospitality, generosity, prayers, support and for ensuring Adile and he had a pleasant stay and journey.

Gani wrote: “Without your help, prayers and support our planning for the trip, the speaking engagements and travelling throughout UK would not be possible. We thank the Lord for your prayers and generosity.

“We praise the Lord for all you who took part in planning the travels, organising the meetings and having us at your homes.

“A special thank to so many of you who opened your homes for us to stay with you. You really made us feel important in God’s eyes.

“Deep in our hearts we feel that our deputation was a success and that God used all of you for that.”

He added: “Now, we are back home to our ministry. There are many things that need to be done, improved and planned in order to continue building His Church in Peja.”

But he said the deacons at their church in Peja had done very well while they were away and were helped by two or three friends.

Finally, Gani asked everyone to pray for his mother as she is soon to have an operation to remove a kidney.
