ROAR! I feel like I am experiencing so many things and thinking so many things and feeling so many things that I really don't know where to start…so here it goes.
The Lord is doing amazing things in Romania.
Kids clubs are starting in villages that have no churches.
Bibles are being handed out to those that have never heard of the Gospel.
This region is being covered in prayer daily.
God's people are being obedient in coming here and daily choosing to follow Him.

I am overwhelmed by the burden on my heart for these people. The number of Romanians who have not heard His name is endless.
Why, Lord? Why are so many people's eyes blinded to your unfailing love and saving grace?

Reason I love Romania: Teaching English is my new favorite thing. It is seriously a teacher's dream. I get to teach whatever I want to teach, and my students are excited about whatever I teach them! During this time, we pray together (in English), read Scripture (in English), and have real conversations (in English) to form deeper relationships. I teach 3 adults in the morning and a high schooler in the afternoon (small groups are my favorite).

Other thoughts: My team listened to a podcast the other day on impossible things. The Lord brought to my attention that I don't pray for certain things because I fear that they won't happen and I have them marked off in my brain as impossible. Luke 1:37-"For nothing will be impossible with God." I started a list…and pray through it at least once a day…and am trusting…
What have you blocked off in your brain as impossible? Make a list and pray! Or not…whatever you want to do :).
Please pray for our mini debrief in Transylvania for two days, starting next Thursday. This is when we will find out about team changes and prepare to go to Moldova.
Still loving Romania as we are currenty playing a game of telephone pictionary. We being my team and team Monarch…Life is great, God is good, and I will forever praise Him.
