Where do I even begin!!!????
Romania messed me up in such a good way. I have made friends there which I did not know was possible to do in such a short month. We poured into each other it was Chist centered, holy and sooooo good.
For those of you who do not know. This month we worked with a church under a pastor called Cristi Golas. In this we plowed a field and planted seeds for his church, helped build a house for the churchs worship leader, got to do plenty of dramas and music ministry. We also got to do life in Resboyen!
Resboyen is hard and scary place here we taught English, played football with them, and had the chance to speak to them in an open way about Jesus! It blew my mind.
What I really want to say is this
What we do on the race is about relation and how we walk together in ministry, therefore life. I am realising this more and more, we are here for each other. To invest in a way that I have never experienced or been a part of. I have been challenged so freaking much, called into greatness, told about my flaws and strengths multiple times. The thing is though its all LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! and then some more LOVE!
I want to talk about a few people that effected my life this month with the love they showed me.
CRISTI GOLAS
This guy is a man of God! I don't have to say any more than that, but I will. He has three kids and a incredible wife the way he does life with his family first and foremost above ministry it blows my mind.
As a pastor! wow!. How he does ministry is a beautiful thing how he Shepard his flock seriously brought me to tears. It is incredible how he taught me so much without even trying. He was just being
MARIUS and DUTZI CIUCAN
This couple is beautiful! They showed me what people my age can have successful marriages and relationships. They are so giving of there time and love. I had great time beating Marius at ping pong and bowling. I also throughly enjoyed getting my sarcasm on with Dutzi we had a blast. They are trulygreat examples of what I want someday in my marriage.
FLORIN SOARE
The video you will see at the end of my blog is all thanks to him. The fact that he wanted to record us crazy foreigners and put that together is HUGE! I was speechless when I realized what was going on. The fact that he did this was a tremendous blessing. He is a great man of God with a passion for Egypt that God will honour and bless him in.
To Everyone else in Pitesti, Romania
