26.04.2016: Kolping Slovenia

At their National Convention which was conducted at the beginning of April, the members of Kolping Slovenia elected a new board and Avgust Heri?ko as the new President. Archbishop Alojzij Cvikl blessed the new premises of the association.

The Archbishop praised the work of the association and encouraged the members present to continue working in the spirit of Adolph Kolping. He said that there are many challenges these days such as poverty, unemployment, jobs without decent pay, isolation and indifference of society.

The Annual Meeting thanked the former President Ivan Ga?nik and his longtime Secretary, Edward Belca, for their work over many years.
