We had a great day today. Sid's day wasn't so great as he spent much of the day feeling poorly. We had to leave him behind int he flat while the rest of enjoyed the day.
Serghei & Ira invited us to their home this morning to enjoy their hospitality and discuss how they can contribute to the Lord's work. Their home in the village of Cricova is very small and shared with Ira's 94 year old grandmother. While their house is small, it is large in terms of love and hospitality. Ira served us a delicious cake and Serghei's homemade compote. The two of them truly have servants hearts and are very active in the Lord's work. While we were there, Ira received a call that proved to be a wrong number. This guy has called many times before. Ira invited him to church. On the phone with a wrong number, she tried to turn it into a teaching opportunity. Wow!!
Ira accompanied us to the orphanage. The taxi ride from Cricova to the orphanage was a real adventure. It seemed that the taxis were racing and I quite counting the near misses. But, with the Lord's blessing we made it. I know of no other way to explain how we had a safe trip. After a tour of the facilities, Connie and Ernestine taught a Bible class.
Tonight we studied the church in Philadelphia. Steve gave the background and Sid lead the discussion of the text. It was obvious that the church members had read and studied ahead of time. It was a good class.
After our study, Ernestine and Connie were treated to their first Andy's pizza. Even with corn on the pizza, they seemed to enjoy it.
Tomorrow we go back to Benderi for a study.
God bless all of you.
