During this past fall evangelistic campaign we met several open persons. We promised them that we would carol for them over Christmas. So around Christmas, we along with a group of believers from Bucharest visited all those we had promised. Some of them welcomed us, while others were distant. But for us it was a joy to share the Gospel once again through carols and books. We met a man who was so happy to see us. I asked him if he had received the CD the first time we had met. He said that he did and sometimes he listened to it in the evening. I was very encouraged. I know that one can find the truth if he listens to the Word of God. Our purpose was to sow gospel seed and praise the Lord we gave out a lot of seed. Through The Lord's grace we expect to see fruits.

The third Saturday of the month we organized an evangelistic evening on the occasion of the Lord Jesus' birth. Approximately eight new people came. The program was very nice, and those who came for the first time enjoyed it. Most of those people were our acquaintances who we continue to meet with.

The second Sunday of the month I visited Cosmin C. in Ramnicu Sarat and Marian J. in Pitulicea. A group of young Christians accompanied me. They want to move into a non-evangelized area of our country to plant a church there. The Lord showed them that area was Buzau county. I proposed to them to visit our two missions. I thought maybe they would want to join these missions and help proclaim the Word in Buzau. They were touched by the ministries that our brothers in Christ had in Pitulicea and Ramnicu. Also, our missionaries were touched by these young people's passion, enthusiasm and behavior. This group is now looking for the right place to move.

As usual, I spent a lot of my time visiting the people from the church and those who recently came to church. At the end of the year a small group of people were saved and I help them to get closer to God.

I did a review of the whole year and I saw how the Lord blessed us:

• I am grateful for our own worship place.
• I am grateful for all the people who repented this past year. Eight new people started to regularly attend the church services. The attendance has reached 15-20 people now.
• I am grateful for the evangelizations that we did. We gave out thousands of CDs, tracts, New Testaments and shared the Gospel with hundreds of people, maybe even a thousand.
• I am grateful for the evangelistic crusade that we did with the HeartCry missionaries in Draganesti, Fieni and Pitulicea. We also reached out to other surrounding villages.
• I am grateful for my family and especially for the baby that will come.
  
• I am grateful also for my house, even though it's not finished yet.

It's a wonderful experience to walk with God and I am blessed and fulfilled. This past year the Lord performed great works among us and I believe we will see even more works in 2010. Praise Him!

In 2010 we want to continue the evangelistic project. We hope we can distribute literature and preach the Gospel in all the villages. We also hope to finish the upper floor where we will have our Sunday school meetings. With the Lord we will have great victories.
