A Gypsy Believer

Gypsies in Croatia are known as thieves and beggars, which sadly is a well-earned stereotype. Because of their reputation, folks look down on gypsies, who are therefore not able to integrate into schools and Croatian culture, which forces them to beg and steal, and the cycle continues. Pavic, who is a relative of a Croatian Gypsy king, recently became a Christ follower and now has a burden to see churches established among his people. He is attending the church planting class that Daniel is teaching, and is dreaming of how to make the gospel relevant and a church healthy in a gypsy context.
