On Thursday, our team was finally back together after working as a split team for two days in different churches. It was good to all be in the same location. Even though I’ve only known the majority of the team for a few days, I have grown to love each and every one of them. On the days when we were split into two different teams, I missed the others and was so glad to see them at the end of the day.
The church at Piatra Neamt is our host church for this work. It is absolutely beautiful with wonderful acoustics for the spoken word. The people have worked hard to provide this place where they can worship. From this location, they are serving and helping so many people.
This was the first day that the clinic staff were going to be working in a larger city. Thankfully, this also meant that people waiting had somewhere where they could wait inside. There was plenty of space for the doctors, pharmacy and eyeglass fitting.

In Piatra Neamt, those of us working with kids got the opportunity to work with children from the local orphanage. These kids were awesome and so engaged in the songs, stories and crafts that we got to do with them.

At the end of the day, we got to spend time in worship with our Romanian brothers and sisters during an evening service. Although I didn’t understand the words, it was still worshipful as we hummed and they sang worship songs. Just such a great time and a great way to end the day.
