After the business of summer ministry and camp fun, we had a little time of doing different things. We were able to go to our friends wedding, Costin and Ana. We got to know them at our Bible study through AlphaOmega Church.

The last week we spent in Romania before our time in the US we spent cleaning and organizing. We cleaned Snagov, the team house, and organized the basement. In the basement of the team house we have rows of bins of ministry supplies. From these supplies we make crafts, give away school supplies, hygiene items and much more. One evening the summer interns wanted to go over to our apartment to go to the park by our house.

We left Romania on the 12th for just over two weeks to spend in the US. During this time we are speaking at 4 churches and visiting family and friends.

Our first Sunday in the US we talked at Red Pine Bible church. It is a small church with a big heart. We were able to talk for 20 minutes during the service so we told about what we did in Romania and shared a few stories about individual kids. Then we opened up for questions and after the service we met people and showed more pictures. It was a very nice time and we felt very welcomed, loved, and supported by the people there.

After church we went out to eat at a large buffet and then went over to Mark's aunt Sharon's place to visit with family that came to the church service. It was very nice reconnecting with them and they are so very encouraging of what we're doing in Romania.
