Praise & Pray with Us

    PRAISES

    We've had a safe transition back to the USA.

    Stephen successfully graduated from the online high school that we have been using. Lydia also completed her junior year and will be finishing her senior year in public high school in the States.

    God has provided for us in amazing ways as we reestablish our lives in the USA for this year.

    We had a great weekend of speaking and sharing about Romania at the Tri- State Family Camp July 10-11.

    PRAYER NEEDS

    Pray for Paula as she returns to Romania for two weeks beginning July 30 to reconnect with and maintain our relationships there.

    Pray for our family's emotional and cultural adjustments to back to living in the States.

    PPray for preparations for our kids' return to school... Stephen will be entering Spring Arbor University and Lydia will return to public high school as a senior.

    Pray for Lydia as she begins a month of marching band camp beginning August 2.

    Pray for us to make the right contacts as we schedule speaking engagements from September 12 through Spring, 2011.

    Pray for our discernment of God's will for what our ministry in Romania will look like in this next term of service.

    Pray for our ministry financial needs to be met.

A Change for Emmanuel Christian Center

Sometimes Christians have to make hard decisions about working together. Sometimes the best decision is to work separately yet still in the same Kingdom and for the same King. Over the last few weeks prior to leaving Romania for this year in the USA, we and the leaders of the Emmanuel Christian Centre (the primary [...]

We were very happy to have him visit. On Saturday he met in the afternoon with the leadership team of [...]

A smile speaks loudly...

To all who receive…
Today I received one of those story emails…telling of a woman who purchased a meal in McDonalds for two homeless men. Then it told me to “send it back” so my guardian angel will care for me…or something like this. I’m not making fun, really. I just don’t believe in “gimicks”…and I really don’t [...]

Recently our Emmanuel church leaders decided to begin focusing on developing cell groups as our primary method for discipleship and evangelism. Paula and I have been leading a bi-lingual cell group for over a year now, and the leaders of our youth have been moving their meetings more towards the cell group format as [...]

Ahh, the day after Christmas (“Boxing Day” as our British friends call it)…unlike the busyness of post-Christmas shopping in the USA, it’s a fairly quiet day in Romania. Some of the Oaza teens are spending the afternoon at our house, baking in the kitchen (homemade stromboli for dinner…Yum!) and playing video games.

We celebrated Christmas Day [...]

Paula and I continue to lead a cell group that is connected to our local church here, Emmanuel Christian Center. Right now it consists of three Romanian families, two American families, and one single American. All of our discussion is bi-lingual. Although we’re happy with most things about our group, recently we’ve been feeling like [...]

What an amazing week! It has been so amazing that words don’t seem to quite get at telling you about it, but I (Paula) will try. Last Tuesday, Scott and I drove to Budapest, Hungary to take part in a week of discussions with other Free Methodist European missionaries and key national leaders. Basically, we [...]
