Busy Summer



We have been away in the UK from early June until late July which is why this site has been largely unblogged but it does not mean that nothing has been happening
On the contrary

We ran 3 children's missions in Gotesti, Chircani and Constantinovca with around 300 kids coming throughout the week

We were also involved with other children's works. Here the picture is of the children's outreach in Baurci
Then Mission Direct an organisation from the UK have had teams with us throughout the summer.

Their vision is to send teams from the UK of 5-20 people to help the local church with their spiritual work and also to do community service projects

One such project was assisting the kindergarten wirh repairs, decorations ( like these murals ) and also building a new set of hygenic toilets see photo below.


The toilets work by the upstanding pipes getting heated in the sun and thus sucking out the gases in the toilets so that there remains no foul smell

The mayor came and loved what he saw asking that they come again and do the same for the toilets in the main school in Gotesti
There were many other things they did and they were also heavily involved with a
an outreach we did to the physically disabled in Gotesti
Over 50 people attended the meeting in our church building in and around 20 responded to a gospel appeal
Pray for us as we seek to follow them up .
Pray for the various visiting and outreaches we are doing this September in preparation for our Harvest service evangelistic event when a team from Bayfarm church in California will be with us
