An update long awaited.

Above is the newsletter that should have been sent out from september.
To catch everyone one up. We are in the states after two years away. We will be heading back January 26th. The best part of it is how God worked it all out. We were planning on coming from January to march, but the Lord had other plans. Even though it was against all odds we wanted Mihai to come with us. So Nicu and i traveled to Bucurest to apply for his visa. After talking with the consulate, asked to wait (while we saw one after another person get turned away or accepted). After about an hour, the consulate called us back up and asked us all the same questions again. They agreed to a two month temporary visa. But when we recieved the visa, it was for oct 30th to January 28th. Instead of going through the whole application process again, everything fell in place for us to go on these dates.
After seventeen hours of flying, with the kids only taking a nap, we arrived in Boise, Id. We were taken to where we would stay for the week while in Boise.

The Coprivnicars were such a blessing, coming home to family. Another family blessed us in the use of thier vehicle- even though we never met them, they were a blessing.


On to Iowa. Twenty hours later, we arrived to surprise Chris' family. From hunting squirrel and pheasant, to shopping downtown Soiux Falls, SD on the day after thanksgiving,we enjoyed our time with family.


On to North Carolina, with a stop in Nashville to have dinner with our cousins. Olive Garden was such a treat. After four hours of conversation and great food, we were on the road again. 24 hours after leaving Boise, we arrived at Faith's moms house. What a wonderful surprise for her mom, and family. Now, here we are in North Carolina.
Gospel Baptist Church as an apartment for missionaries. What a wonderful idea. We are able to stay here, and fellowship. We will be travelling some in the next month and a half. But nothing to the extent of Cross country as we have just accomplished. (Another cross-country under my belt.)
To everyone who has helped us through praying for safe travels, to financially supporting us, you have been a blessing to us and the ministry. Without your help this would not have been possible.
Levi's attempt at photography. He is practicing with my camera until he can get one of his own.
Merry Christmas to you all.

Cabin of Hope, August 2008

Family Center/ Church Camp Bistrita, Romania first week in August. The kids had a great time and loved seeing the cabana all fixed up. They studied the life of Samson from the Bible, played lots of games, and ate lots of food.





























The family center kids from Brasov, Romania came to have a camp with us the last week of August. It was great having the 8 kids be the first besides our family center kids to use the camp. They enjoyed it and had lots of fun. The older boys especially enjoyed making the fires each day as the camp was led by three of us ladies, the fire became the boys job:) We studied the life of Daniel from the Bible and the hope that he had in the Lord. The kids saw how Daniel wasn't fearful because he believed God's word to be true and trusted in Him above all else.












Roasting carnati, sort of like hot dogs.


Roasting Smores night. The kids enjoyed them all so much, and had never had them before.

Chloe's first smore, she had to do a little dance to go with it she enjoyed it so much!

Cabin of Hope

Well the team has now come and gone for the Cabin of Hope project. We were all so exhausted by the end of the two weeks, but a good exhausted. We were able to get so much done, and still had a little bit left from our budget. The cabana now has running water, hot at that, a shower, and a flushing toilet. We now have a very nice picnic table that matches the cabana, a basketball goal, a swing for the kids, fresh painted walls, fresh stained outside, bathroom walls, a fence to keep the cows and horses out, and many other things. One thing we were not able to get done was the bunk beds, but we hope to accomplish that soon with the left over money. Thank you so much to all that came to help us with this project. We really appreciated all that you did for us and it could not have been done without your help. Thank you as well to all of those who prayed for the team and the project both before and during the time the team was here. One of our favorite parts of this project is that we were able to be a part of it as a family. The kids loved staying at the cabana, and helping in any way that they could. Chloe loved sweeping up the patio, and well Levi, he loved throwing all the scraps into the fire. Mihai untill he got sick had a great time just following every one around. It was a great blessing to be able to be a part of all that God is going to do.

The new tire swing. Chloe enjoyed trying it out.

Sorry not all of the pictures were in order. There are also plenty more pictures if you wish to see more we will try to get those out at a later date. Or you can email us and we will send you a website where you can go to see them all.

quick update

Hi every body. Sorry we are a little behind on our blog. We still need to post our Hungary trip, our time in Brasov, and then we need to put the update on the cabana. For right now I will just say that every thing is going well with the cabana, it has been really neat as God has brought together people from the States, England, Hungary, and Romania for His project. It has been a huge blessing to see everything come together as well as exhausted and sometimes a bit overwhelming. It is good to know that we have rest at the feet of Jesus:)

Thank you so much for all of your prayers. As soon as this coming week is over we should have a little more time to place all of our pictures up. Please pray for Colby as well. He will be leaving on July 31st to fly back home. I know that both he and his family will be glad to see each other again. He has been a great blessing to have here and we will miss him. Please pray for his safe travels.

June 10-11 2008

The kids end of school year excursion. They took a 20 minute train ride to a cabana. They left at 7:30 am and returned 7 pm. I have to admit I was a little worried about sending Chloe especially as she is only 3 years old.








This is our center's church. To us the center is downtown. This church is called by some the Lutheran church and others the Evangelical church. It is not in use right now for services, but is for concerts and special events, such as Easter celebrations. Arson is suspected but not yet determined. The church is from the 14th century, and was the tallest in all of the Transylvania area. It was kind of sad to see part of the history of our town in flames. They have been trying to rebuild it for sometime and it had scaffolding up to the top. All of the scaffolding and the steeples burned off. I was reminded of two things on this day. The first one is that worry is a sin. The second is that the things of this earth will all one day pass away.


The kids end of school year program. It was all in Romanian, but they did a great job, and it was a pleasure to watch. Levi will be moving up to the big class next school year at the kindergarten, he is so excited about that, and is looking forward to having homework:)







Sorry that Chloe's picture ended up side ways, but isn't she still so cute:)
