Croatia gets second visit from singer Garth Hewitt
SINGER/SONGWRITER Garth
Hewitt has recently returned from a second visit to Osijek in
Croatia on behalf of Amos Trust, where he did a weekend of concerts
and special events organised by the Evangelical Theological Seminary
of Osijek. On his first visit to Croatia in 1994, Garth visited some
of the war zone areas such as Pakrac and Lipitz. Garth was very
shocked by what he saw. After hearing the story of Bosnian Muslim
refugees and seeing first hand the deliberate targeting of women,
children, schools, old peoples homes and the fabric of society, by the
Serb forces, he wrote the song "So This Is War" which featured on his
album 'Stronger Than The Storm'.
