One of the aspects about our ministry here are the wonderful youth volunteers we work with. My colleage and I pray that our example in ministry will stir in them a continued desire for ministry themself. We have a wonderful group of volunteers who travel with us all throughout Romania (when they can) and work extremely hard in service to God. Many of them are at different stageas in their walk with the Lord but everyone of them are a crucial part of this ministry and we pray they realize their potential and giftings God has given them through this ministry.
Tonight we had a going away party for me since it will be about a year before I can see them again. (sniff sniff)
One of the joys of working with our Romanian youth is that we get to expose them to new American delicatessen’s. Tonight’s classic treat was Banana Split with lots of goodies for toppings. They had never had one and most had never seen one. One had heard about it on the Cartoon Network. LOL
Here are some pics from our evening experience with banana splits and going away party.
After their “lesson” on how to make banana split they were all very eager to dig in.
Adriana enjoying her first banana split ever.
Julia was so excited and loved it that seconds were in order.
I think Ingrid’s smile says it all!
Nane is as sweet as her banana split.
Bogdan was speechless after his first banana split.
Adriana really loves frisca
Don’t let Alex’s face deceive you he loved it.
Somehow Filip got the biggest bowl and managed to fill it.
Our fabulous volunteers. My colleague Jan is on far right with striped blouse.
The group surprised me with a beautiful gift and card with many notes written to hurry back home.
I will miss them all deeply but I know I’ll be back home. How quickly depends on you
