Dear Friend,
With the year 2010 behind us we reflect on things accomplished. We ministered or drove through 46 US States!
As we start our 13th month of deputation, due to your generosity, our travels have already been cut short by five months.
The year couldn't have ended better. In September we were contacted by Bro. David Bernard and Bro. Robert Rodenbush informing us of a contact in Croatia. A young man was seeking an UPCI church in the city of Zagreb, Croatia's capitol. But there are none! During our Christmas break, I traveled overseas to baptize this young Croatian preacher named Oliver Misic in Jesus name.
A theology student, he asked God to reveal Himself as He truly is, and not what others have told him. He said something opened in his mind and he started jumping up and down in his room saying, "God is one! God is one!" Pray with us as he is currently starting a home church in Zagreb.
Oliver is giving the book, "The Oneness Of God" By D. Bernard, to his friends and says that it's starting a revolution!
He is the second minister we baptized and I believe that God is truly sending laborers into the harvest in this region.
Also, Evangelist Brandon Houseworth accompanied me for a week, ministering in Serbia & Croatia. At one of the services my childhood and lifelong friend received the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Please become our Partner in Missions so we can cut 26 months of deputation down to 18 months, in Jesus name!

The Hajduk¿s served on AIM again in 2006. They spent nine months in the Baltic Republics and over a year in Croatia, where they presently are working with various home groups in order to pioneer a church. Upon returning to the field, they will settle in the capital city, Zagreb, and work on establishing a church there, find new contacts and travelling also in Slovenia, pioneering works.

After the death of Marshall Tito in 1980, long smoldering nationalism flared, fueled by ethnic and religious strife. The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia burst into flames in June 1991 with Croatia’s and Slovenia’s declarations of independence. Croatia emerged into the new millennium from a decade in which it had experienced a bitter war before occupying Serb armies were mostly cleared from Croatian lands and several years of authoritarian nationalism under the late president, Franjo Tudjman. By early 2003 it had made sufficient progress to formally apply for membership in the European Union, becoming the second former Yugoslav republic after Slovenia to do so. The gospel seeds planted by the late John Balca, the father of Samuel Balca and Anne Nowacki, still produce results. According to the 2006 Annual Field Report, the UPC of Croatia has 40 constituents and one church.
PRAY for a great apostolic REVIVAL to sweep these Eastern European nations!
