Today was the Advent Sunday and it was full of preaching, testimonies of teammates and fellowship with those at the church. We greeted the locals with the blessing "pace" (pronounced pah-chay, means "peace" in English).
The second service took place in the home of a local pastor-in-training. We all sang "What a Friend We Have in Jesus" (some of us in English, some in Romanian) & I joined 2 of my church's teammates in presenting our personal testimonies, each of us being translated for the local folks. The services today helped me have a greater understanding of how the body of Christ truly is one large family & that while we may be separated by different languages, we are united in our faith and kindred spirits.
On Monday, we plan tovisit a Roma church where Pastor David will be preaching and follow that by a training for the medical mission porttion of the trip for the rest of the week.
