Romania trip update

Hello!

Praise the Lord for the opportunity to go to Romania! The LCM Romania team left Timber-lee on Tuesday last week. Although we have not had much communication with them since they left due to lack of Internet access, we do know that they arrived safely and that things are going well. Recently we received an e-mail from LCM Director Ed Hooke. He said things are going well and people are staying healthy. They have been very busy in ministry but are enjoying the time spent with other Christians. In the e-mail Ed mentioned several prayer requests which I would like to pass along:

- Today they were preparing for the Camp Director's Institute (CDI) which starts tomorrow. This is a conference held at one of the Romanian camps. Camp Directors from all different areas of Romania will come and learn about camp programming, different types of camps, how to make a successful schedule, etc. They will also be networking with others. The LCMs are in charge of these networking sessions. Please pray that they would have clarity in their speech as they lead these sessions and lectures.
- Pray for patience concerning the language barrier. Letty, the trip translator, will not always be available during the CDI conference.
- Pray for a music leader for CDI. The person who was supposed to lead backed out at the last minute.
- Pray for good weather so the LCM team can lead the networking sessions outside. Along with that, good weather would be preferable as all the camp directors will be travelling to CDI by car.
- Pray for continued health for Ed and the LCM team.

Thank you all so much for your prayers and concern. We are thrilled for this opportunity and can't wait to hear more details about the missions trip upon their return.

Outdoors for Christ!
