Sunday

We have such a capable and committed team here in Oradea. They are such an encouragement. Here they are at the end of the day!

Today we were involved in three services. The first was Bet Adonai, an independant Baptist fellowship. So welcoming and wonderful relaxed time together. This was a new contact and we pray that we can develop a strong link there. Dan Roman, one of our team, shared his testimony (below);

Leo, another member of the team shared about our work in Oradea prison and Reli (Sorin's wife) spoke about her invovement in prison ministry alongside here husband. Andy preached from 2 Kings 4 and there was an encouraging response. We enjoyed a shared lunch afterwards.

In the evening we went to the first part of the service at Golgotha Baptist. Andy gave a brief presentation about the wider work of Damascus Trust and then preached a short version of his sermon 'The battle is not yours, but God's'.

We then went swiftly across the town to join the rest of the team at Betania Pentecostal Church.

This is Dan and Gabi's home church and after some wonderful worship, Dan spoke about the work of Path of Life, Leo shared his testimony, then they were joined by Sorin, Nico and Florin to sing,  and Leo's son, Chris, played the drums. Andy gave another presentation about the work of Damasucs Trust and then spoke again from 2 Chronicles 20 and linked it in with Ephesians 6. It was a full service!

We had some pizza together at the end and then some of us went into the town for the end of celebrations marking the founding of the city. It happens each year at this time and finishes with a concert and fireworks.

Tomorrow we start out teaching at Emanuel University with 36 students booked in. Please pray for a good first day.

Thanks for your prayers and comments.

Until next time.
Goodnight.
