Priest Assigned to Small Slovak Village Despite Language Barrier with Local Rusyn Community

Share:

A priest and his family have been assigned to serve in a small Slovak village where he faces significant communication challenges, as he does not understand the local Rusyn language well. The situation is complicated by the fact that one-third of the children in the local kindergarten are his own. The priest incorporates personal anecdotes from his life into his sermons as he adapts to serving the community.
