Could be a Church Start

Here is the picture taken before beginning our meetings in our new rented location. We had a great turnout last night. There were around 80 people counting every last soul that was there. We had 15 Americans, about 20 from the local baptist church. So that leaves about 40 or so from the valley that were there. We have actually lost a lot of momentum in the valley but are hoping this will help us regain those that we have lost. We will start meeting every Sunday at 10 to 12. We had a man named Adrian that we are hoping can help us move forward in planting an official church. So we are celebrating today over this amazing night. Our goal is to reach the valley and this was a huge step in the right direction. Praise the Lord! We are so thankful and hope that ONLY He will get the glory for all that has been done..

Here Pastor David Groves is preaching to the people and hoping that they will understand the message of Salvation. Pastor has had huge influence in this church start. Two families from Living Word are now here in the valley working because of Living Word Baptist church passion for missions. We are thankful for our home church who are so committed to us as members and for their commitment to help the people in the valley. It was their trip in 2005 that really began the work with our first meeting at club CFR.

Here is Ruth doing ALL the work while the others just sat around and took pictures. Look at the leadership that Pastor David Groves is showing at this particular moment! Thanks Ruth for being such an example to all around you! We love all of them in spite of this though......we pray that as this team goes over to Moldova for another week of missions it will be blessed by our Heavenly Father!
