Because of purchases of Livestock from Essential Gifts, we were able to provide Rainbow Rehabiliation Centre in Novi Sad, Serbia, with a grant to purchase ten piglets.
As part of their restoration, students within the programme reared the pigs, learning valuable life skills about responsibility and care. Five pigs were kept to provide food for the centre for the year ahead, while the other five were sold once the pigs had grown, allowing the centre to pay for additional costs. The project forms part of Rainbow's wider strategy to become fully self-sustaining. Thank you for helping the centre in this way.

On Tuesday, Rainbow Rehabilitation Centre celebrated 17 years of ministry, having opened back in 2008.
Pastor Dusan Beredi of Novi Sad Christian Fellowship (pictured standing in the third photo) wrote, ‘The church always tried to help addicts, but we primarily sent them to rehab centres in Croatia. In those days, God spoke to us with the question, “What will you do?” Our [reply] was “How?”
'The church had four guest rooms. We bought military beds at the scrapyard. The programme? Teen Challenge, at the time, prohibited anyone from using their materials, but there were people who were willing to advise us. Also, each of us said what we could do, what kind of lessons, and the first programme was drawn up.
'On 10th December 2008, Dušan M entered the programme, and a few days later, Atila, and the story began.
'[At our celebration], the hall [was] full of associates and students in rehab (not former students, but those who have remained active). Today, we are called Teen Challenge. And the story is just beginning.’ ... See MoreSee Less
