In less than a week from the time of this writing, we will be leading a team to Romania for our annual Christmas trip. We are excited to once again be able to share the love of Jesus with the people in the Transylvania region of Romania through our words, smiles and gifts of staple foods, warm clothing, fruit, hygiene items, school supplies and toys for the kids. All is in readiness, as we work through the discipleship program designed to help knit the fourteen people from four different states into a cohesive team. None of us know personally all of the others we will be traveling and working with for this 8-day ministry opportunity. But, God does!

Possibly the most exciting aspect of this year’s team is that 7 of the members are new to missions ministry in general and Romania in particular.  It is always a  thrill to witness first-time exposure to a new culture and see how God “works” in the lives of the team members.

Thank You

On behalf of the Romania people to whom we will be ministering, we want to thank you for responding to our request for funding of the hundreds of pounds of food that will be distributed to help sustain village families during the winter months.  The effects of your generosity may never be able to be measured this side of heaven.  But, God keeps good records!  Again, we thank you!

Please Pray

As we go we would ask that you lift the names of the team members, and their families left behind at home, as you pray daily.
