In 24.5 hours, I will be taking off for Romania. Am excited but feeling a little more apprehensious this time around than I have before. I think part of it is that I'm older and realize a little better how crazy what I do is. Also, this time around I'm going to work with Gypsies in their villages for about 3 weeks. The last few times the majority of my time was spent with Romanians or Hungarians. So... the risk factor is greater on this trip. :-)
But it's what I'm called to do, so God will protect me. :-)
Plans as of today (meaning that in Romania, plans are always made to be broken or rearranged):
Fly out Tuesday, arrive in Budapest on Wednesday. Take the train to Debrecen and stay there with a friend until Saturday. Am planning to meet IMB (International Mission Board - Southern Baptist affiliation) missionaries while in Debrecen.
Saturday drive with some friends from Debrecen to Oradea, Romania, where I will stay at the Orphanage I visited before and say hi to friends there, check up on the orphanage, that sort of thing. Then on June 4th I will take the train to Huedin, where Nicu and Silvana Hagiu will meet me and we'll get to work blessing the Gypsies with the message of Jesus and show them His love and Salvation.
On the 22 of June the Hagiu's and I will travel back to Hungary for a week for a conference for Eastern European Missionaries.
On the 30th of June I will fly home!! Whew!
Hopefully I'll be able to load pictures on here while I'm abroad. Please pray for protection for me as I travel and am with the Gypsies, and that the Lord will bless me and the Hagiu's with His words and wisdom as we minister to the Gypsies.
And pray that my bags aren't too heavy. I loaded up with Vitamins and supplies for the Gypsies, but I don't have a scale and they are feeling a little heavy. Augh!!
