These people made it all possible. Encouraging the churches in Romania has become my passion, my calling. It is a thrill to travel and to minister in Eastern Europe,  but it is also very costly. So I want to salute these faithful, generous partners.  * Each trip Amanda Richards and Yvonne Johns responded to pleas from afar for more dollars and no spending at home, thus making the trips possible. * the congregation of First Presbyterian in Brockville provides $600 annually for Study Leave  * The people of Bacau & region were kind with the sharing of meals …. thanks to all of you! (if I have missed anyone, it is due to my inept administrative record keeping – let me know and I will correct my mistake immediately!)
