Team Work in Moldova

Ever worked with a team of four different nationalities, all of them different from your own?A couple of years ago we did a children's week-long Bible club in a Romany village in the Republic of Moldova + a women's outreach. Our team consisted of a Romanian (the only blond), a lot of local Romany believers (with Moldovan passports), some local Romanian-speaking Moldovan believers, me (the U.S. citizen), and a German woman from our Dutch Baptist Church (pictured below). 
In a few weeks, we're going to do a reprise of this international, inter-ethnic team work. Seven or eight people from the Dutch Baptist Churches here in Arnhem (including the woman pictured left), the same Romanian (who will NOT be the only blond), lots of local Romany believers, and some local Romanian-speaking Moldovan believers. We will be there for two weeks--plenty of time to do a three-day children's program, a day camp for teenaged and pre-teen girls, possibly something similar for boys, + a women's outreach. Oh, yes, and once again I will be the only American and the only native English-speaker. Unless, of course, some of you choose to join the team as prayer support--wherever you are and in whatever language you use to talk with God.






Trip: June 24-July 8. To join us as prayer support, write to me at holmes(at)thefellowship.info  (If you have not seen emails listed in this form before, it is to cut down on spam.  Replace (at) with @ and email Mary.)

  1. For daily blog entries about this trip, go to http://hartvoormoldavie.waarbenjij.nu/. However, since most of the team members are from the Netherlands, most of these blog entries will be in Dutch. Google translate might come in handy.
