Worship

Day 1 -
Sorry it's taken us a long time to blog. We have been getting oriented and acclimated and also organizing for camp. It was 100 degrees here today and yesterday, and we are melting. But regardless of the heat, we had a wonderful day today. We worshiped in all four of Attila's churches today, beginning with our friends in Gornesti.There is a lot of church growth there in Gornesti with all of the new babies. We ate lunch in Sandor's garden as you can see in the picture. After a wonderful lunch, we headed to Filpisu Mic. There, we met with the faithful three members. Then, we went to Reghin, and lastly Apalina. Among each congregation, we enjoyed sharing and leading worship. Bonnie shared scripture and brought greetings from her family and friends and Anna brought Katie's greetings and sang with Paul. After singing, Paul gave the message. With each sermon delivered, Paul became more confident in his Hungarian. We are being delayed one day for camp due to construction there, so please pray that everything will go smoothly from here on out. The children are so excited and promise to be on their best behavior.

Arrived in Reghin
Bonnie, Anna, and Paul arrived in Reghin this afternoon. The trip over was with no problem--"too easy". Adel prepared a delicious meal. Attila was excited to have the team with them. Anna went with Adel and Attila to a youth meeting in Reghin. Tomorrow they start the finishing touches to the Gypsy Children's Camp. Thank you for your prayers.

GYPSY CHILDREN'S CAMP
Bonnie Parker, Anna Horne, and Paul Crook left today for Romania. They will be joining Attila and Adel Toth in providing two weeks of Gypsy Children's Camp. The Teleios Team are in the air on their way to Budapest. They will fly from Budapest to Tirgu Mures, Romania. They will spend Friday through Sunday getting ready for the camps. On Monday, June 14, they begin the bus ride to the camp near Sibiu, Romania. Approximately 45 children from the Apalina Gypsy (Roma)area of Reghin will attend the first camp.

There will be few if any pictures and daily updates. There is no internet service near the camp and sometimes the phone connections are not good. As best is possible the team will try to keep you updated for your prayers.

Thank you in advance for your prayers. Oh, as of last week, there was still some snow on the ground in the area. Hmmm one of the activities is usually to dam up the stream and swim in it. Brrrrr! Pray for all of them for a great week and that our Lord will be lifted up and glorified.
