DAY 2

DAY 2  -  Sunday 11th August 2013
Sunday mornings are always dedicated to worshipping God with a church gathering.  Again, we heard the congregation in fervent prayers and some worship songs sung in Romanian, which was interesting to work out the English translations.  We did get to sing one English Song, 'Lord I Lift Your Name On High' with the rest of the congregation singing in Romanian. We had 2 sermons: one by Brian who spoke on Numbers 13, outlining how important it is for us to take possession of God's promises; the other from Igor who gave an encouraging word based on Matthew 5:4  

It's been another very hot day with temperatures in the 30 degrees centigrade but we have managed to progress the plans for the teaching sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Once again we have enjoyed a day of wonderful Moldovan hospitality.

The highlight of the day, by far,  was lunch at the Frinea's house and hearing Andrea playing a beautiful rendition of Beethoven's Fur Elise. Only 2 years ago, Andrea could not play a note on the piano but Brian's daughter Michelle has since been sponsoring her piano lessons, which Andrea undertakes twice a week, and it was so moving to now see the fruit of that sponsorship.

Tomorrow we are planning to take a trip to Chişinău to buy some resources and meet up with Rob and Jo.
