YEEE! I really really really really love it here. We arrived Tuesday night (Romanian time… this would've been Tuesday afternoon in the States).
I'm in my element.
It's so cold…. HALLELUJAH!
I am teaching english this month (YES)! And chinese with my awesome teammate who is fluent.
There are thrift stores… then more…. then a bit more. Two doors down, 3 on one corner, 2 across the street from that.
The town we live in reminds me of Ellicottville.
Did I mention it's cold?! YAY.
It seems like people are less interested in cushioning themselves or buffering their feelings and more concerned with being honest, authentic, or straight forward as our contact has described himself. Here he is. He's AWESOME.
Our team is working with the same team we worked with month 1, Reckless Pursuit. They rock!! Here we are (Team Favoured was originally with us too but they moved an hour away).
I'm super duper pooper excited.
The 14 of us are making our way north tomorrow to see more of Romania then we're back to our ministry site Saturday night.
The point of ministry this month is to support the missionaries. We are involved in a wide variety of things (kids club, teaching english and chinese, teaching computer skills, administration work, gardening, slumber parties-for real, construction, preaching, leading worship, etc). Please be praying that our time here will encourage the missionaries in Draganeste-olt, especially as there are only .2(that is POINT 2)% christians in this area. They need a lot of support. Thankya :).
Roadtrip!
Woohoo Europe!
Peace.
