Rachel's Romania Prayer Letter - 11.10.2007

Well, this will be my last email from the US. I leave this Wednesday morning at 6am to begin my journey to Romania. It has been a blessed 6 months as I have been preparing for this trip. It is so great to see how the Lord has been faithful in bringing me to this place, and I know He will continue to be faithful in the time to come.

“For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.”
~Philippians 1:6


I am sad to be leaving so many dear friends and family behind, but I know that we will keep in touch and also knowing that you are here praying for me offers me such peace and joy. I am excited and looking forward to the future and all that God is going to do. I can’t wait for these next 2 months as I will be learning the Romanian language, and then beginning my ministry with the children and babies. This is something the Lord placed on my heart so many years ago, and to finally have the opportunity to be going full time to do this, seems unbelievable. What an awesome God we serve!

Please keep my family and friends in prayer. Please keep me in prayer as well, that I will have a safe journey and that all things will run smoothly. Below is my itinerary:
