With God’s help, I will speak about what happened this month so that we can once again acknowledge that we do not know in advance what God, who is the Sovereign, has in store for us.
On November 3rd, a brother from our church left this earth at the age of 54. I've known him for over 30 years and he was a good English translator. God is Sovereign, what He does now we don't understand but we will someday.
At the funeral more than 200 people participated. It is hard to part but we are comforted that soon we will all be around our Lord Jesus. Until then is time to work so that upon His arrival we receive our reward according to His promise: “And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.” (Revelation 22-12)
I would also like to recall that I enjoy so much the time spent with the girls from the orphanage both with the program we have and the fact that Sunday comes to the program a pretty big number. Another joy that I have comes from the villages around, that they return to the Lord Jesus and receive Him in their hearts.
For example, with the Grozavu Ilie who has a hearing problem, but now it has been solved by obtaining a hearing aid at half price, meaning 500$.
I would like to note the encouragement I have received from brother Cornel Stef to solve this problem as brother ED and sister Didy support this charity financially.
Another news I received from sister Rodica and brother Alex to gather some support for Christmas gifts from sister Barac and brother Matei Scheau.
Next month I'm gonna start ordering wholesale but first I want to consult with the girls at the orphanage about what each bag should contain, no more than five dollars each bag because based on my calculation I have 500 bags along with children from other villages.
Thank you very much for the support in prayer and financially that our Lord Jesus put on your heart to do. We also do not forget to mention before the Throne of Grace each and every one of you.
Prayer Requets:
For my wife Nely, the disease progresses to be slower
For the mission I have for next month regarding Christmas gifts to do it under our Lord Jesus care
All those who have heard the gospel on the occasion of the funeral of brother Cristi Petricioiu, to return to God.
I would end with a word that has brought me so much good: “He who heeds the word wisely will find good, And whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he.” (Proverbs 16:20)
