Even though June is the exam month, we continued going into the dorms with our small literature table and I had a couple of opportunities to share the Gospel with two students. Especially the second conversation was very interesting. When he saw us, this guy stopped and said: "Oh, I am interested in these things." We offered him a New Testament and some booklets, but he said he wouldn't take them. He told me he had the Orthodox Bible, and I encouraged him to read it. We discussed for some time, and it seemed that he had been thinking about spiritual things.

May the Lord work in his heart! I saw this thing happening again and again, people who stop and would like to take a New Testament and a booklet, but then they don't because the books are evangelicals and not Orthodox. Last time in the dorms a guy and a girl stopped, and the girl took several books. The guy told her to leave the New Testament, and when she asked why, he said "I will tell you later".

We had the greatest joy when the other girl I went with invited a guy who was passing by to stop and look at our table. He stopped and looked and then he said: " I am a Muslim." For several seconds I did not know what to say, but then I asked him where he was from. He was from Syria and studied in the Medical School to become a physician. Then he said: "Give me something short." I gave him the "Ultimate Questions" booklet and then I showed him the New Testament and asked him whether he had it. He asked: "Is this the Bible?" and I said, "Yes, the second part of the Bible." He took it along with the booklet and said, "I will read them!". Then he left. I was very, very excited about that! May the Lord convince him to read the New Testament and reveal Christ to him!

We started preparing for the evangelistic summer camp, July 22th-28th. We put a lot of posters in the Universities and dorms, but nobody has called yet. There are two non-Christian girls who want to come, and we pray for more. It is more and more difficult to get the students to come in the summer, when they want to get a job. Please pray with us that many lost students will come to this camp and hear the gospel!

As I was putting the posters up with a Christian girl, she told me about one of her colleagues. Elisa had been praying that she would have a person to witness to, and the Lord brought out this girl, who is very open to discuss God. She was glad to receive a New Testament and attended one of our meetings. Elisa began to witness to her, and she even came to our church to an evangelistic meeting. Please pray that she would be able to come to our camp. She seems willing to, but I think she doesn't have enough money. Please pray that the Lord would make a way for her to come and to be saved.

I still hear about people who were very blessed at the HeartCry conferences in May. I received an email from a friend in Brasov. She had invited a girl to the conference who was attending the Mormon Church. Brother Paul Washer talked to this girl, and my friend told me recently that after the conference this girl stopped going to the Mormon church and started attending a Bible study in the Baptist church. She also stopped going to the bars and when her friends invite her, she says: "I am a Christian now, I cannot do these things anymore." This report was very encouraging! Praise the Lord! Several weeks ago we had a big celebration "20 years of OSCEB". Many of the former students attended, and we celebrated the way the Lord worked among us especially in the last five years. We were overjoyed when we listened to the testimonies of Iulia and Georgiana of how the Lord saved them and grew them over the past years. I am so glad to see both of them bearing fruit for the Lord! Looking back on these years I am so grateful to the Lord for the students who were saved and who grew in their faith. I am so amazed that the Lord would choose to use us, and this is certainly in spite of us and not because of us.

In the last months a very sad thing was the fact that one of my friends who used to profess faith in Christ started saying that she doesn't want anything to do with God. She lives in another city, and I had not seen her since then. She was with us in a winter and summer camp. She was not raised in a Christian family and when she professed faith her parents were very much against it. Nevertheless, she stood firm. I hope to see her in August and talk to her more. Please pray that the Lord will have mercy on her and bring her to repentance and faith in Christ.
