Welcome to our website
This web site was established to describe our ministry in Slovakia so that Christian friends from all around the English speaking world can get some insight into various aspects of our work for the Lord and His church. It serves as a central Internet location describing our lives, family and Christian involvements. It was born out of late nights work during August, September and October 2007.
Little bit of background
During all those years since my conversion to Christ in 1994, I had been privileged to get to know various English speaking brothers and sisters from all around the world. Those were all enriching moments as we heard and discovered the background of our friends and also could talk about us and our lives in all of their multiple dimensions. Many times they showed interest to learn about our conversion stories and what ministries we are involved with and how we live in our country and family settings.
It was during the spring of 2007 when the idea to build this web site first flashed my mind with the work commencing during summer of that very year. So what is this supposed to be all about? It is meant to be a kind of virtual sharing place where we afford you a look into our lives and also a single portal describing our ministry in Slovakia for anyone who is interested to hear about what we are involved with. Whether it be photos of our family or repository of ministry newsletters, this is a one-stop place where to find it all.

Note on accessibility
Anyone who knows the web address http://sichula.temelios.sk/ can access the web site without any obstacles. It is not however indexed by Internet search engines like Google, Yahoo!, Windows Live Search, etc. This behavior is by design as we want this to be a sharing place aimed at our friends, not just a general purpose web site. We encourage you to share the address with any friends who might be interested to learn about us and our ministry in Slovakia.
Important note – plea for patience
Please understand that this web site is a work in progress. It had only been opened in October 2007. We will be adding new content in spare time as possibilities allow. Feel free to share the web address with anyone who might be interested. We had received far more encouragement and prayers than we were able to provide. Thank you for all of that, it does matter to us.
