Just Give Me 5 Minutes.... Romanian Minutes...

So we found out today that Romanian time is unlike any other time we're use to. 5 minutes usually turns into about an hour. Today we got to go to church twice. Both times we were told the service would only last about an hour.. three and a half hours later we left for lunch. It was crazy to say the least. The first service was three hours full of singing, offerings, preaching, sitting down, standing up and we even took part in the Lord's Supper. It was really neat to see these Romanians worship. They prayed with such reverence and urgency. It was incredible. It really challeneged me and my prayer life. Do I pray to God like I actually expect Him to hear and deliever? These people do!

Tomorrow we are splitting up into two teams. One team will go into a neighborhood and go door to door telling people about Jesus and handing out Bibles. The other team, the team I am on, will go down the street to the day center and put on a VBS for the kiddos that go there. I am SO excited to play with some kids!

Prayer Requests:

• PLENTY of rest tonight!
• A few of us are having stomach aches and feeling a little sick to our stomachs. Pray it would all go away by morning! I'm sure it just has something to do with the jetlag.
• Pray for awesome and FLEXIBLE attitudes!
• Pray for boldness. May we be urgent about spreading the gospel!
• That all fear and nervousness would disappear!

Praise Him for an awesome day today!! God was glorified and we learned something in the process!

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers! The days ahead are looking to be long but it's all going to be worth it! I love you all more than you know!

Forever His,
