| "Tie your shoes and pray for the Hughes" |
Dear
Friends,
We are
back in Moldova after our furlough. We
squeezed a lot in those last couple of weeks before saying goodbyes and
boarding our plane. The Lord gave us
good flights and after about a week we felt fully adjusted to the time zone
here.
Last
week we held a VBS at the Gross home. We
were excited to see 34 different neighborhood kids come throughout the
week. There were several who had come in
previous years, as well as about 10 that we met for the first time. For the week we averaged nearly 21 children a
day. Romanian is what most of the
children speak, so I had my first opportunity to teach in that language. I taught two days and David the other three. His lesson Friday explained that Jesus is the
only way of salvation, just as the ark was the only safety in Noah’s day. No one took the opportunity to talk more
about salvation. We pray the Holy Spirit
would continue to use the Word and that He would bring fruit in their hearts.
We are
encouraged by the attendance to our weekly services and by the occasional first
time visitors. We will repeat our VBS program in Soroca July 31-August 4. Please pray that we will find children to
come and that the Lord will use the week for his glory.
In His
service,
Jacob
and Viola Hughes
