we have been living in a gypsy village for the past week in the mountains of romania. our host couple has been amazing. we call them momma and poppa and i think thats all they really understand from us but we all still manage to laugh a lot together. we sleep in their tiny 2 bedroom home and cook our meals for us. i spent one morning learning a romanian worship song from poppa and wrote it down on paper phonetically so i could read it and teach it to the team. we all got up and sang with poppa during the church service and it was a hit! our first week we have been going door to door inviting everyone to church and praying for them. the afternoons we have been playing soccer with the men and games with the kids. every night has been a bible study which is a shorter version of church (regular church lasts from 730pm-1230 and sometimes goes until 3 or 4 am). this week we planned a sports camp, vbs, teaching english in school, and hopefully a prayer night, maybe a baptism service. lots of ideas so we will see what happens.
When you sponsor a child it not only provides a hot meal, clean water, discipleship, and basic medical care for the child, it also supports their family by inviting them through the gates of the CarePoint to receive training, discipleship and mentorship.
Consider linking arms with us to impact children, families, and communities in Eswatini, South Asia, or Guatemala!
