Just wanted to say how much the Lord has been working in my life. Four years ago, he gave me the heart and passion to work amongst the Roma here in Romania. I had only been working with the children until a few months ago. I love working with children. They bring so much joy to my heart and I love just being around them. But after moving to this area and working in Nusfalau, I wanted to start a Bible study with the ladies. I had been debating this idea for some time. I guess really I was fighting Satan and his schemes. I was listening to him telling me that I couldn't do it, I wouldn't be able to communicate, my language skills weren't good enough. I am not sure what happened but I stepped out in faith and began meeting with the ladies. It has been about 4 or 5 months since I have started my Bible study and the Lord continues to burden me more and more for these ladies. They have fully accepted me and I love them so much.
Just yesterday, I was in Nusfalau to take one of the ladies to the pharmacy to buy some pain medicine and another lady asked to talk with me. I was able to pray for her and encourage her. The Lord is opening a door for me to encourage, love and minister to these ladies. I am excited to continue meeting new ladies and to get to know the ones that have been coming regularly. Please pray with me that these ladies will surrender all and live for the Lord. That they will be examples for their children and have a hunger for the Word.
The picture below is the ladies from Nusfalau teaching me how to crack walnuts. This is something they are able to do and get paid for. Can you tell how white I am compared to everyone?? I always stand out when I am in the village. haha!
