October Mission Team has Landed!



The team has finally arrived in Romania. We are all safe and somewhat doing okay. We have a couple suffering from car sickness, which is not to uncommon after 16 hours of air travel and winding roads. But overall we are doing well and the team is resting well at the Hotel Dragului in Predeal, Romania.

We have had to adjust our sight-seeing schedule a bit to make up for the lost day but our missions coordinator Gabi has it all well planned. I am not sure what we would do without Gabi. So tomorrow we will go into Brasov for the morning and early afternoon for some trinket shipping and to visit the historic Black Church. In the mid-afternoon we will then finish off our drive to Tarneveni where the team will be for the next 6 days.

The prayers this team needs now is for their bodies adjust to the 8 hour time difference quickly and for some nice sight-seeing weather for tomorrow. I am sure the team would like to lift up the children they are preparing to help this week. Thanks to the entire Fundatia Buckner staff for hosting the team for the next 10 days.
