At the Diakonie family shelter in the Czech Republic, a Roma girl smiles for the camera. Methodism came to Yugoslavia by way of a monthly news magazine published in German by German- speaking Methodists in the United States. Because of a magazine article, a group in Backa (Vojvodina) discovered that there was a Methodist congregation in Vienna, Austria. They were drawn to the denomination because of a common interest in temperance. They invited the Vienna pastor to Backa in 1897, and thus the church was born, despite the fact that the new religion was soon persecuted and its newly appointed pastor imprisoned.
