Today and tomorrow are draining days. We are doing a VBS in a village called Fontenella. Today and tomorrow from 9-3pm we are with all the little Romanian rugrats. It’s been fun so far. Tomorrow I’m teaching them about the 10 plagues and how Jesus is our Passover. Praying kids see the need to except Christ as their Savior. After that I will be speaking at a women’s event here in town. The topic is hope and I’m hoping the power of God’s spirit will encourage and lift up women in a very destitute place. I keep thinking of that verse where Peter says, “silver and gold I have none, but in the name of Jesus get up and walk”. I have so little to offer the vast needs of this country but I do possess the God who can cause people to “get up and walk”.
After the long day tomorrow I will be traveling in the night to Timisoara where I will spend a week working with an amazing guy named Lorentiu. He was an orphan and grew up to minister to other orphans. He doesn’t speak English but in the past I have felt like we have similar hearts. He will be taking me around all week to orphanages and church’s where I will be teaching English, some guitar and just hanging out with mainly teenaged orphans in the area. Please pray for courage as I have become very comfortable in the last 2 weeks with my host family and this area. And now I get to figure it all out again…….what an adventure.
