Short
Term Ministry Involvement
 |
Have you ever considered becoming involved in
short term missions? We have many opportunities for anyone that
would like to invest their time, talent and gifts to the Lord's
Kingdom.
We
are seeking men who are good at construction (wood, concrete, electricians,
plumbing, etc.) Even if you're considered a "handyman",
we could use someone like you to really and truly make a difference
in the lives of people in Romania.
We
are also seeking ladies who consider themselves as excellent cooks
and bakers. The children of Romania and Hungary eat much differently
than Americans do and what a blessing to have you create wonderful
meals for them.

few of them celebrate birthdays or have enjoy the the occasions
that we do such as Christmas, Easter and their equivalent of Thanksgiving.
It
is said, that Jesus fed the 5000 and the 4000 and then He provided
a message of Hope to them. Well, you could do the same thing when
it comes to a delicious meal for those that eat far less better
than we do. |
| Here
are a couple of food items that they really enjoy....

Construction
is similar in nature to that of the USA, but performed a little
simpler for their standards. Housing in Romania and Hungary is for
the most part at a premium, thus ANYTHING,
you would be willing to do such as throwing a hammer around and
nailing boards, painting, etc., would be a real blessing for us.
Here is a photo of some young men putting up a building.
