02.20 am 1st January 2015 and the LORD speaks of 'The Jewsers'.
I found these musicians from Croatia that have the name 'Jewsers' As I am writing this I can feel the sheer heat of the power of love of his Son. WOW - a hot blessing for these musicians and their music.

Dinko, the band’s double bass player, explained that the Jewsers is the only band playing klezmer music in the west Balkans. The eastern European audience considers the music ‘ethnic’ and quaint.
The band is based in Zagreb where there are scarcely 1,500 Jews. Prior to World War II, there were over 25,000 Jews living In Zagreb. “We lost many family members from our mother’s side in the Holocaust, says Ozren Tabakovic, the Jewser’s drummer. “We are very connected to Jewish culture and feel it is so important to revive it,” he added.
Critics in Croatia regard the Jewsers as one of the best bands in the region. They have been described as innovative, and have played at some very popular festivals including the Dubrovnik Summer Festival, the renowned Lisinski Concert Hall and at many street festivals across Europe. They play a unique blend of jazz, blues, klezmer, Croatian folk music, gypsy music and Latin rhythms. Although they are always well received, the standing ovations they enjoy in Tsfat are extraordinary.

What else is going on in Croatia - Croatia is mainly a Roman Catholic country and there has been a mass there that is causing a stir.
"It's hard to believe that in the center of the capital of a member of the European Union, very close to Zagreb's Jewish community, hundreds of people gathered yesterday to commemorate the memory of one of Europe's biggest mass murderers," the head of the center's Jerusalem office said in a statement.
Efraim Zuroff labelled the service marking the 55th anniversary of Ante Pavelic's death an "insult to the memory of Pavelic's hundreds of thousands of innocent victims",
and a "badge of shame for the Catholic Church"
