Recently in September we held a bible school for the children of the International Church. Normally most churches would host such a celebration for the children in the summer. Here we must do things differently because many of our families travel during the summer. Yet, we were excited to see the little ones enjoying learning more about Jesus. We want to share with you just a bit of what the children experienced.

The children really enjoyed singing songs that glorified Jesus
At VBS the children learned that Jesus made each of them in his image
There was something for everyone to enjoyAt the end of the month Naty and I were invited once again to attend the Japanese festival in Bucharest. We have so enjoyed getting to know our friends from Japan. God has opened many doors into the Japanese community. Currently Naty is teaching three individuals from the Japanese community English. This is a great opportunity as many of those from Japan in Bucharest do not know Christ. Through opportunities like the language classes we are able to share Christ with them. Please pray that God will continue to open doors like this one here in Bucharest. Last, please continue to pray for those in the Japanese community that we have been able to establish friendships with. Pray that God will continue to open doors for the gospel to be shared with each one.
