ROMANIA MISSION

We have been without internet access for several days now so I will try to update all on what has been happening.

We arrived in Bucharest on Wednesday and are staying with the same family we stayed with last year.  Our accomodations are top notch and we are so very thankful.  So far we have filled 200 bags of groceries and will purchase another 150 in the morning.  We have visited several villages I have been to in the past and some new ones as well.  One thing that has struck me about these poor destitute Gypsy villages is the thankfulness with which they receive our gifts of staples and how many new believers are being added to the church.  It is always so great to see new converts and know that the Gospel message is going forth with much fervor.

Tomorrow we will distribute groceries to several churches here in Bucharest to be given out as the needs are presented.  The afternoon will be free time for us and a time to pack for Carol and Sharon as they are scheduled to fly out early Sunday morning.  The rest of us will remain here in Bucharest for Sunday and then Monday morning we are heading to Suceava and the Moldova region.  We will be working with a Pentecostal Union pastor, Pastor Iliutia.  We have worked with him before and I am looking forward to returning to this region.

Thank you for your prayers for my mother.  The last word I had was she is doing better.  Please continue to uplift her in prayer.  We welcome your prayers as well.

Blessings.
