Christmas in Romania trip Concludes

Well at this moment the team is sitting at the Bucharest airport preparing to board the flight to Paris and then onto US soil. The team is ready to return home but hearts have been broken and remolded. It is amazing to see how our Lord works in the lives of people. I have been bringing people to Romania for over 6 years now and it never ceases to amaze me how the Lord works. The trip was significantly different due to the make-up of the team. Typically, teams are dominated by women however this team was made up of 4 men and 1 women, making it "different". The focus had a construction flavor but the real transformation did not happen when sheet rock was applied to the walls of a classroom. The transformation happened when we were in the presence of children. The team took frequent breaks to see the children perform different activities and that is where the team fell in love with the ministry that Another Child Foundation does for the children and their families in Romania.

I am sure there will be many stories told by the team that I could not even attempt to tell within a blog posting. So, I will not even try to describe the difference I see in the team that came to Romania with open hearts to serve the children of Romania and our Lord and Savior. So, if you had a family member as a part of the "Christmas in Romania" trip be prepared for some awesome stories of how ACF is truly reaching, teaching, and transforming children, mission trip participants, and our donors.

ACF is committed to making a substantial long term difference in the lives of people by empowering them to be able to provide for themselves and their families. Early education plays a large part in what ACF does but to transform a community of people much help is needed. Sponsorship of children and ACF programs are a great investment into God's kingdom here on earth. If anyone reading this blog would like to be a part of the ACF experience go to our website www.anotherchild.org and see how you can be involved.

May God bless you and your family during this Christmas season! America....here we come!!!
