Towns in Slovakia


Komarno

Komarno


We will be spending most of our time in the town of Kosice and Komarno. Kosice is the center of East Slovakia. This city, the second largest in Slovakia, has a long and rich history. Komarno is half of a cross-border community, together with its Hungarian counterpart Komarom on the other side of the Danube River. Its distinction is the fact that it is Slovakia’s largest town (population 37,000) in which Hungarian language and nationality is in the majority. It also has a lovely town centre with excellent restaurants, and historical fortifications, mainly from Napoleonic times.
We will be helping with distributing Books of Hope, sharing our testimonies during street evangelism, visiting an orphanage and several schools. In Kosice, we will be part of the local church's Gypsy ministry and a youth ministry.
Here are some pictures to help you see some of the places we will visit.
