My work with the children continues unabated because we are still in the period of school holidays. Therefore we have been working with the children more often. We have used Joy, the minibus, on numerous occasions. Some of the children love to go on a local hill and to play in the open fields. This also gives me the opportunity to teach them more about the Bible and the Lord Jesus. Recently I was assisted by some Canadian sisters in Christ who were here as part of a group for two weeks.
We worked together with the children inside and outside. I also worked with the sisters on the streets of Draganesti. We spoke with the local people about Jesus' love for them. We distributed biblical literature including audio CDs that contained several testimonies.
I have also been visiting fellow sisters in Christ and non-Christian women for encouragement, support, and for a time of teaching. I also try to help the non-Christian women I regularly meet with to enter into a relationship with Him.
From the 7th of July I have played a leading role in setting up a women's Bible study group which meets every Tuesday at 7 pm. These meetings generally last at least two hours and I speak not just for myself but for the other women who have attended these meetings. We have gained much spiritual food and Biblical knowledge. I hope this will continue to develop and produce fruit in our walk with Christ and be beneficial for the Lord's ministry.
The mathematics and language lessons for the children which we have set up continue at our home. We have discovered that it is easier to subdivide the children into ages and general abilities. This has worked very well so far even if the groups tend to be quite small.
