For a year I have been praying that God would prepare me for missions work and that he would show me where that would be.. Last November I was presented with Romania. Please join me by prayer and partnering with me as I travel to Western Romania, where my team and I will be working with the children, churches, and orphanages.
God is at work in Romania and I have an opportunity to go and be a part of what He is doing there, and to help the poverty stricken people that live in many of the rural villages. I am a part of a team of 16 people going from Southpoint Community Christian Church on a unique mission to serve a community that is in extreme need from July 21 - 31,2013.
What We Are Doing:
We are partnering with local churches in Romania and a local non-profit to help meet the physical needs that will experience and also bring hope to the many homes that have no hope. Did you know that Romania was the last communist led country in Europe? Romania was a dictatorial Communist led country until 1989, which is the year of the Revolution, which began in Timisoara (which we will be visiting). Ever since the revolution the nation has been trying to heal and restore their nation. Many of the villages where we will be serving still have no electricity, no running water, and no transportation to resources that we take for granted. I am excited about this opportunity to be exposed first hand to missions work and the special needs of the community in Romania. Wile the work ahead of me is overwhelming, I am confident that God will use me, along with our team to make a difference.
I would like to ask you to partner with me in this mission.
