February 2019
Greetings to you all in Christ
Jesus! “Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him.”
Thank you for your kindness of supporting the prison ministry here spiritually
and materially.
Some news as following:
Viorel wrote in English: “Course
completion:
On February 18, we completed the
“Way to a Happy Life” course, with a group of 14 inmates after about 4 months
of weekly meetings. Seven out of fourteen inmates received credits and
graduation diplomas. At the jail event, a group of young people from Codlea
sang a Bucharest police colonel, Ivaşcu Costel, told his testimony that his
life was in vain until God changed him. There were detainees who prayed with
me, and they opened their heart for Jesus. Each of the attendees received
sweets and those who graduated received a consistent package.
Visit Vasile P.
I was asked by the social
assistant in the penitentiary to help a detainee who has six children and whose
wife died. On Thursday, February 28, I visited and took him clothes,
bedding, food, and money. While we talked to him in the meeting room, he
screamed all the time. His situation is a very difficult one, he has been given
8 years with execution, and the children are divided into 3 orphanages. I
prayed for him and I encouraged him.
On March 4, we will start a new
course with a new group of inmates.
Church:
This month I had the opportunity to
visit more people at home and at the hospital in Covasna and Valea Mare. I have
had the joy of going to families that do not come to the church and who have
been very open, glory to the Lord.”
At MCiuc Prison we had a special guest a
missionary from Brazil. He has been living in Romania for some years and he
speaks very well Romanian. His testimony was a real blessing for all course
participants. As I told you, we are working with the new program, which
contains very good themes for inmates.
I had the honor this month to proclaim
the gospel in a church and to represent the prison ministry. Together with my
wife, I had also the opportunity to meet four high school classes in a school
in Odorheiu Secuiesc.
Baboi reported 77 participants
with whom he is already working, plus a new group he has not yet met and whose
actual he does not yet know.
Doczy's father-in-law died; may
the Lord bring comfort to his family!
I got promoted to grandpa. A
new stage in our lives, both I and my wife are very happy with this blessing.
With
love in Christ,
