The Hope Community Team has partnered with JRS BiH to serve at the Men’s Temporary Reception Center on Mondays and Tuesdays to assist in the Barbershop — a place where men can use their skills to cut their hair or their friend’s hair. Outside the barbershop, there is the opportunity to hang out and have conversations around games and activities.

Galentines day celebration at Hope Community!

In partnership with JRS BiH, we welcomed women to celebrate sisterhood, offering a relaxing atmosphere and an activity that showcased how our hearts grow and change over time through the relationships we share with one another –– creating a beautiful mosaic.

Hope Community had the opportunity last week to work in partnership with Caritas Bosne i Hercegovine for a women's day at the family temporary reception center. Together, we were able to bring our foot spa activity, along with nail care and henna, to give and receive care from the women who have become friends. We are grateful to witness and experience the community of women across countries, languages, and backgrounds.

“I always feel better when I leave here.”

With the start of 2026, Hope Community continues with our weekly schedule to invite people from the Temporary Reception Centers and local friends.

Mondays - Women’s Day
Tuesdays - Community Meal and English Classes
Wednesday - Evening Worship
Thursdays - Men’s Day in partnership with JRS BiH
Fridays - English Classes

We know that even the unprogrammed events throughout our week of coffee, tea, games, and stable wifi hold value. Our opportunity to connect and give time to guests remains one of the most important things we do.

Happy New Year from Hope Community!

We celebrated the holidays with a community lunch held at the family Temporary Reception Center with the partnership of Caritas Bosne i Hercegovine , and a Christmas Eve service at Hope with a meal cooked by friends from the TRC. We welcomed in the New Year with a Vigil Service, with scripture read in over six languages by staff and guests. The scriptures shared how God is with us in the present and how we still have great hope for the future in Jesus Christ.

While we are entering a new year, we continue our mission to demonstrate God’s unconditional love for forcibly displaced people in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
