Walking and Praying
Family Heritage
1st, 2nd’s, and 3rd’s!
Associate pastors Ruben and Rachelle have entered the brand new joy of first time parenthood with little Iuliana-Esther.
A special moment was dedicating Matthew and Lidia’s baby daughter and 4 year old son. Lidia first came to BIC as a teen 14 years ago, a friend to our youngest daughter. Later she moved to London, married and has now returned to Bucharest with her family.
BIC church deacons, Claudiu and Jennifer, look forward to the birth of child number 3 in a few months.
Harvest Fest 2016
What a great way to utilize the bountiful Fall Harvest in the agricultural area an hour to the southeast of Bucharest. Carloads of volunteers helped to clean, cut, pickle and bottle a literal ton of peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes for the needy of the area and, in Bucharest, for the Hagar House Maternity Care Center and Teen Challenge. The camaraderie was as rewarding as the full jars of produce!
It Takes Two!
It takes two to drive the country roads in Romania; one to steer and one to navigate, one to manoeuvre around slow moving trucks, farm vehicles, dogs scavenging for road kill and one to call out road signs, spot police checks and check ahead for oncoming traffic in the dips or around the curves.
Pray with us for safety for ourselves and our colleagues as we travel to bring humanitarian aid in rural settings, to national conferences for teaching or for outreach to communities requesting help.
