Chuch in Jabuka

This morning, Liljana took me to a church service at the Methodist Church in Jabuka instead of going to the morning prayer service here in Padina. Jabuka is about a half an hour away in the direction of Belgrade. The church services in Padina are very traditional and use slower hymns. The average age of the congregation here is probably around 65. The church in Jabuka is bigger and with all the children, the average age is probably around 35. Because the majority of the congregation comes from Roma/gypsy decent, their music was much more lively and fun. It was a really enjoyable service. I was just surprised that there were probably about 20 people there under the age of 20. Except for Easter, kids and youth never seem to come to Church in Padina. Gotta go. Time for the second church service here in Padina.
