The Seventh-day Adventist Publishing House, Preporod, traditionally takes part and every year records significant sales growth. For them, the Book Fair is a significant missionary project and a special place to meet people who long for biblical truths and books that will lift their thoughts to something beautiful, eternal, exalted and everlasting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/sitenews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/images_news-2019_Preporod_at_Belgrade_Book_Fair_2019.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignright size-full wp-image-3690\" style=\"margin: 5px 5px 5px 10px; float: right;\" src=\"https:\/\/ted.adventist.org\/sitenews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/images_news-2019_Preporod_at_Belgrade_Book_Fair_2019.jpg\" alt=\"Preporod at Belgrade Book Fair 2019\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a>As an alternative to many of the secular ideologies available, Preporod offer books that will enhance people\u2019s everyday life. These include books about health, spirituality, life experiences, as well as children\u2019s and positive psychological literature. Sa\u0161a Todoran, who has recently taken over leadership of the publishing house, states that \u201cWe are especially grateful to God because He is working on human hearts and is preparing people to make big decisions with eternal consequences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Many customers from previous years returned commenting how much they have enjoyed previous purchases and that they \u201cread our books with pleasure\u201d. This then led to more sales with over 2,000 books sold during the duration of the fair.<\/p>\n<p>The entire team at Preporod, along with the leadership of the South-East European Union, are grateful for God\u2019s guidance and care in this initiative as they use their skills to share His message of love.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>ted<\/em>NEWS Staff: Victor Hulbert, editor; Deana Stojkovi\u0107, associate editor<br \/>119 St Peter&#8217;s Street, St Albans, Herts, AL1 3EY, England<br \/>E-mail: <a href=\"mailto:tednews@ted.adventist.org\">tednews@ted.adventist.org<\/a><br \/>Website: www.ted.adventist.org<br \/><em>ted<\/em>NEWS is an information bulletin issued by the communication department of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the Trans-European Division.
