Welcome to our blog!

I am not sure how much writing we will do but we will be adding pictures from time to time. We began our blog in Romania where we lived for over nine years. The Lord called us to Romania in 1998 (arriving in Feb. 1999). We had an amazing adventure with Him. He allowed us to see him minister in many ways in Romania. We were able to see first hand political and economic changes but also enjoy its beauty when we were out in the countryside. Checkout the Bucharest and Romania slideshows on this blog.
We are now back in Texas waiting to see what the Lord has planned for us.

On the road to visit friends

Since we are heading stateside the end of June Roger and I have been wanting to visit with friends we have met through the years. One couple, Daniel and Adina are Hungarians who live in Turda in the Transylvania region of Romania. Transylvania used to be a part of Hungary and is still heavily populated with Hungarians. We met Daniel and Adina (before they were married) through the Romania Chapel Project. Daniel was in seminary at the Hungarian Baptist Seminary in Cluj (class of 2000). Daniel is now a pastor of a Hungarian Baptist Church in Turda and another church in a village. Adina is an English teacher currently waiting the arrival of their first child.
Here is the Hungarian Baptist Church in Turda. They are still working on the sanctuary on the inside. The church meets in the basement for services. Daniel and Adina live on the third floor in an apartment.

Daniel and Adina took us to see the Turda Gorge. It is beautiful. Below are more pictures of the gorge.


On the way back to Bucharest we stopped in Fagaras to see Petry and Kyle. Petry was also one of our translators with the Chapel Project. They have two daughters, Lydia (2 1/2 years old) and Miriam (7 months old). Also in the picture is Daniel, his parents, Danny and Estera work with the Romania Chapel Project. Daniel will be 3 later this month.
