Romania has been treating us well.  The country is soo beautiful.  We are staying in a house in a village that is out in the middle of amazing countryside.  We are very blessed by the contacts, the ministry, and the housing this month.  We are a little bit overwhelmed at how awesome everything is!
 
I am thankful for:
 
-contacts who have provided a schedule, and stick to it
 -contacts who take the time to get to know us, and share about their ministry
-a house that has beds, running (and hot!) water, an amazing kitchen
 -that we get to cook our own meals
-an amazing train ride through a beautiful country
-refreshingly cool weather in the morning and night!
-chocalate 😉
-trips to gypsy villages
 
Today we traveled to a few gypsy villages.  Will McCrae and I hung out with a bunch of kids.  They didn’t speak any english, and we don’t speak Romanian or Hungarian, but we still had a great time.  They motioned for us to follow them, and they led us to a river nearby the village.  Neither Will or I had brought a swim suit so we just swam in our shorts.  It was great.  We got to just hang out with them, and let Christ shine through our actions.
 
So on the train ride here, I captured some photos and video and put together a film.  I hope that you enjoy it!
