In the Balkans, fear and tension fill the hearts of those who see a flare-up of the ongoing conflict between ethnic Albanians and the other peoples of the region.
Rebels making almost daily mortar attacks and shootings surround Macedonia's second largest city.
Foreign workers have fled the tension-filled areas. The local population is scared and unsure of what the future holds. A bold indigenous Christian ministry is braving the bullets and the fear to bring the gospel of Jesus Christ to the hurting and needy during this time. They have produced thousands of pieces of gospel literature, audio cassettes of the New Testament, and other outreach materials. They provide hope, comfort, and love.
