We are so grateful to have one of our own alumni serving the Rom people in Ciumeghiu, Romania near its border with Hungary. You really do need to check out Kim's blog at http://krazymarks.blogspot.com/ .Excerpts from Kim's most recent email update:
"For 2 years, we have been having children's class in Ciumeghiu with very little visible spiritual growth. Spitting, fighting, and constant commotion are normal for class and make anyone question if these uneducated children are getting anything. But God has a plan. Last summer, one boy accepted Christ as his Saviour at camp. A few weeks ago, a young VERY timid girl came up to me after class and asked me to help her pray and receive Jesus in her life. The older children are regularly singing songs in church services and are memorizing Scripture despite obvious learning difficulties like dyslexia and illiterate parents.
"The almost 100% illiteracy among Rom women spurs me on to continue helping these women memorize Bible verses and learn how to apply God's word to their lives. ... Every week around 10 women come to class with a true spiritual hunger that only God can produce. ... The Word of God is becoming the building blocks of these women's lives supporting them daily and enabling them to have victory in life."
Praises from Kim:
"After weeks of calling and headaches, Romania granted me another one year residence visa to work with the Rom people. Thank you, Lord!
"A wonderful week spent in London, England at a Baptist Mid Missions European Missionary conference. About 40 attended the conference and were blessed by good teaching and much needed fellowship."
