A busy old time travelling around the villages near Cantemir.
Really enjoyed the Children’s Club at Lărguța, such enthusiastic and knowledgeable youngsters.

Three other very different meetings, including this one in a small Church with 6 other people at Antonești!

Two other meetings rounded off a busy day!

Counties Hampshire is in Cahul District.

Another unusual meeting at Speranța Cahul, the inter-Church outreach meeting for disabled people.
All 3 of us preached (plus 2 local Pastors – yes 5 sermons), and at the end I was asked to make an appeal, so another short message to go with that, but a thrill to see people responding to the gospel.

A fantastic FRANK meeting in Andrușul was very special, the small room was full, the attention of those squeezed in was really focussed and as well as people responding at the appeal, we had a really good Q&A session.

The last meeting of the day was at Manta, Kevin preached and I gave a testimony, once a again a very fruitful event and another good Q&A time concluded the service.

The three Englishmen of the team, are once again travelling and working together.

10.00am: The venue is Speranța Cahul, for a very Moldovan (unique & quirky).
A inter-Church outreach meeting for disabled people. The meeting lasts for 3 hours (yes, you read that right, 3 hours of hymns, testimonies and an open mike for at least 6, maybe more speakers to share a gospel message.
The meeting is followed by lunch together.

We then all travel to Andrușul where GC will speak at two Frank meetings (13:30 & 15:00). Steve & Kevin will each give a testimony.

Then we head to Manta, where Steve & Kevin will speak & share a testimony at a 18.00 FRANK meeting at the Church.

The heavens opened and it has poured down with rain all day, the song that summarised my first few visits to Moldova would have been, “mud, mud, glorious mud!” But the last three years we have had sunshine and even a drought, but today we returned to the rain and in the villages where many of the roads are often untarmacked, it was back to, “mud, mud, glorious mud!”

We were each involved in four meetings, the format is usually the same, one of the team shares a testimony and another member speaks.

The four meetings I spoke at were very varied.

2 were FRANK groups.

1 was to footballer players (who are part of Gotești youth team).

The last FRANK group turned into a Q&A session with some great questions on religion, the Bible and Orthodox Church vs Baptists.
Please pray for three ladies:
Natalia (Orthodox but reading her Bible), Ana (Orthodox but very open), Marisabela (Orthodox)
