Today, following a night at Otford Manor (the Oak Hall base) some are travelling back to their homes whilst others drove into the night last night…
It has been an amazing – even life-changing – journey with a group of people who leave as great friends. Our eyes have been opened as we have glimpsed what God is doing across the Balkans, we have experienced God using us and most of all, God changing, teaching and challenging us as we have stuied, served and shared our lives together. Each now return to the mission field where God has placed them.
We plan to meet up at Otford Manor for the weekend 1-3 October. As you have shared this journey through the blog, you are welcome too – please click here for more details.

Thank you again for your partnership!
What an amazing time. I have read your diary each day wishing I was there, seeing Gods love and power moving around each day. It provoked deep memories- especially a photograph of a little boy from the Romany camp. I have the same photo of me playing with that little boy making him laugh with some ballons. It brought tears to my eyes when see the innocent face of a child still in that situation but surrounded by Gods love. You certainly got through a lot and I know my health would have got in the way again- but my daily prayers had you all in them and I know the things you experience will never be lost or forgotten. Back home safe and well-praise and glory to you our God for our oak hallers and the trip this year.
Congratulations, God has obviously richly blessed you all again. Andy, enjoy being back with Fay & the boys (how old now?)
Will continue praying for you & those special folk in Serbia & Republika Srpska
