Welcome to our new blog. In this blog you will be able to track our team's preparation, and progress for our mission trip to Moldova. You will also be able to follow our trip while in Moldova (or after, depending on Internet access.) Feel free to share this blog with anyone who would be interested in our mission.
We are officially one month away from our departure to Moldova. Because of flight costs we had to bump our our trip back two days; meaning that our trip is now from May 17-27. On Thursday we had our weekly meeting. This Thursday we agreed on our fundraising babysitting night, learned about the Moldovan culture and spent time in prayer and scripture as a team. I am very pleased at the way that our girls are coming together as a team. Our Thursday night meetings have easily become one of my favorite parts of the week. This week our JMI representative and team member, Brian, got to attend and teach us some of the traditional Moldovan greetings and told us all about the culture. As he introduced us to some of the girls from the Grace House, our girl became giddy. I looked around the room only to find smiles. A few minutes later we all were practicing the language and had our notebooks out ready to learn. I can't wait to continue growing together and working with our team along with JMI. We are in prayer for our girls and the girls in Moldova. This trip is truly a blessing for all involved.
Fundraising track:
- Our team was able to make over $600 from our concession stand at Singarama.
- We will be hosting a babysitting night at Tusculum Church of Christ on May 29 from 6pm-10pm. All ages are welcome. Minimum of $15 per child. Donations are welcome.
- Many letters have been sent to area churches on behalf of our team. If you would like your church to receive a letter please contact Amy or April.
Thank you for all of your prayers and support. Pace (peace to believers).
