Wow...what a year...what a month...what a past two weeks. Just got back from a two week, three country trip which included Romania, Moldova, and Slovenia. We lost track of how many kilometers we flew and/or drove, but what an experience.
C'mon , think about it, don't countries with names like Moldova and Slovenia just sound intriguing? Can you find either of them on a map? Last year my answer would have been "no". Can you pronounce Ljubljana or Chişinău? Truthfully I couldn't until just a few weeks ago. Oh yeah and there was Romania too, one of the few places in Europe you can still see shepherds.
Where to start? What to share? What story to tell?
> Do you want to hear about the church started in Slovenia during the Communist occupation, by a woman with nothing more than her prayers and a Bible?
> Do you want to hear about the passion of the Messianic Jews we met with in Moldova?
> Do you want to hear about how a Turkish Muslim in Romania is turning a small group that meets in his house into a church?
> Do you want to hear about people so passionate to learn more about how they can best serve Jesus they are willing to risk their jobs just to attend a training conference?
> Do you want to hear about how you can be involved? Make a difference? Be part of the solution? Become part of the story yourself?
Where it might be impossible to sit down with everyone reading this and share these stories, it is possible to get together with many of you on our trip back to the US. We will be landing in Fort Lauderdale on 25 June and leaving from Albany NY on 11 July. We'll be in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, and New York before heading home. We are arranging some "Open House" get-togethers in Central Florida, keep an eye on your email for the invitations. We'd love to meet up with as many of you as possible. If you are somewhere along (or near) our path, drop us a line, we'll do our best to spend some "face time" together. The stories are worth it.
We are running on faith, but we are not running alone.
