10 More Days in Romania

Today is the end of a busy week. We started out on Monday by praying through the streets of Iasi during the Orthodox holiday commemorating the death of a female saint. For some it means standing in line for days to view her bones or kiss her coffin. For others it is a time of carnival and celebrating.

The last two days of the week were spent working at a boy's home for young men 18-30 who have been thrown out of orphanages or into the streets. A couple who has done a YWAM Crossroads works with them and feeds them. The founder of the home is a former Romanian soccer player who sensed God was asking him to minister to the needs of those who have no hope. It was a blessing to spend two days with these young men, work with them and pray for them.

Tomorrow we meet for brunch with an American couple who has ministries throughout the city. Tomorrow evening we will be having dessert with a lady from a local church and possibly go to a classical concert.

Please pray for our next adventure to Bulgaria that should take place in 10 days. We are dealing with some travel challenges.

Many Blessings!
