Fall/Winter update 2016

Jogging in the morning ended badly for an American.He was hit by a car in Ghinda

A traffic accident took place some time ago in the city of Ghinda. A US citizen came to the refreshing morning, but had the misfortune to stand in the way of a car involved in an overshoot.
Jogging in the morning ended abruptly for a US citizen. It lies on the sidewalk, to Ghinda, and had the misfortune as a car hit him. The driver of the car says it is committed to overcoming a backhoe. He argues that because of the icy, when the stearing wanted to return to his car skidded and could not avoid the impact, reaching the sidewalk.
An American citizen was unlucky to be in that exact moment in the way that the car skidded and was hit from behind.
"The data so far, a car skidded. Two victims out of the car. They were assigned two crews from County Ambulance Service first aid. Extrication crew was directed to specific measures in the area of an accident " , he told Bistriţeanul.ro BN ISU spokesman, Sgt. maj. Marius Russian.

Not the way I wanted my morning to start to say the least. Along with being the subject of conversation for the city of Bistrita. One of my doctors said, " I have known people who have lived their entire lives in this city and never have been hit by a car and you have lived here for 12 years  and this happens, what are the odds. I can now proudly cross being hit by a car off the bucket list. I found it funny that he used that term odds, because in my mind in between the pain meds and trying to get comfortable recovering in the Hospital for a week. I was thinking what are the odds of only getting away with a broken arm, some surgery on an ear and some stitches. A couple steps more and it could have been a completely different scenario. But then again I serve a big God, who protects. Did I think that my day was going to start this way, no I didn't have a clue, But through this process I met some great people, who did a great job of repairing what was broken. I had few different opportunities to connect with the staff at the hospital and even made a new acquaintance with the driver who hit me. He has been kind enough to check on me a couple times a week at the hospital and at my home. 

I have even been more blessed watching our church family come together and extend grace and blessing in helping Cynthia with starting the fires in the house, taking care of any car stuff, watching the kids, making meals and all of those things that can be so overwhelming when you are trying to be everywhere at once. We love this church and to see them putting into practice things that have been poured into them over the years, through the Word of God, is humbling to say the least. We are praying for God to be glorified through all of this.

Backing up a month we had our annual Women's tea, with Cynthia teaching from the life of Abigail. Probably one of the best studies I have heard her teach to date. It really resonated with the ladies that attended as well. One of them shared with Cynthia that she had never heard such an amazing study based upon the life of Abigail. We had a lot of new faces this year and Cynthia was even able to share with the owner of the hotel, who was curious why we do this ever year. A couple of the ladies handmade all of the decorations this year as well and we were able to give them away as gifts to those who attended.

Prayer Requests:

Brian is home and getting better. He is regaining his neck and non-broken arm mobility. Although it's nothing like before he still has a lot of pain and is easily tired out. So, please continue to pray for a quick and full recovery. Also, for God's will through all this. Please pray for the driver of the car that hit him, so he would not feel guilty due to this accident but that it is an opportunity to start a relationship with him. Tuesday Brian is going to a private clinic for evaluation. Please pray that everything is as it should be and that his recovery is going well.

Brian has also been invited to share on the 23rd of December his perspective of what Christmas means on a local radio station. Please pray for Wisdom, boldness, and the Power of the Holy Spirit to encourage, comfort, and convict those who hear the message of Hope.

Pray for the financial needs of New Beginnings.  We still have 13 children in our care, and over the last year our monthly financial support has been struggling to meet the needs of these children. We are asking that you would continue to lift up this ministry in prayer. We are also asking for you to help raise awareness of the needs of New Beginnings. For a lot of these kids it has been a new start in their life, both practically and spiritually. Our desire is to help them finish well in life in the things that have eternal value. 

Pray for divine appointments as we approach Christmas.

We are praying about hosting a couple of guys from the Bible College over winter break. That we would be able to minister to them and also give some practical ministry opportunities while they are here.

Pray for our Christmas Eve service this year as we always have a lot of visitors. Pray for the evening to point people to Jesus and make it a personal reality of what he has done for them.

We are also hosting a game and potluck night for New Years Eve at the church. Please pray that it would be a safe and fun night of celebration for those invited and to bring in the New Year with the right focus.

Prayer also for one of he ladies in our church who may have a hernia that requires surgery. Pray for peace, healing and wisdom for the doctors.
