We Are In Belgrade, Serbia

Robert and I arrived at about 3:25PM. We were greeted by Joszef and Ildiko D'Nagy from Hungary and Neca (Netsha) and Goca (Gosha) from Belgrade.

We were taken to our hotel where we freshened up a little bit before we went to eat supper. 

Neca and Goca were telling Robert and me that Belgrade only has 600 believers in the entire city. 

They have a small outreach to couples where they counsel marriages based on Christian principles. 

After we ate at the restaurant, we went to their home to have turkish coffee and pumpkin pie. They have three children, a 11 year old daughter named Johanna, a nine year old son named Nicholae, and a six year old son named Vojin [Voighn (one syllable)]. 

We are now back at the hotel. We spent about five hours talking. It was great learning about Serbia's history. They said that they are so excited that we came to visit. No one, in their opinion, comes to Serbia. 

Both couples will pick us up at about 8:30AM tomorrow morning. That is 1:30AM Austin time on October 16th.

Thanks for posting the pictures. The photo "Overlooking Belgrade" is very hazy, or is it smog?
