We cannot forget our country ever since God called us and blessed us with
the privilege of teaching the bible all over the world and do the charity work - it is
after visiting Romania and helping its people that we feel motivated and compelled
to continue in this mission year after year by the Grace of God for about 55
missions in Romania since 1990.This was possible only by the Grace of God
because He has provided abundantly
towards us to share with others. There is no
better season to renew your commitment to
the work of the Lord than the winter holiday season when people give gifts to
each other. There is a great joy when you give the gift of Jesus Christ to others
because this gift truly makes a difference and lives on eternally. It changes lives of
men, women and children who choose to receive the gift of Christ. This gift has
an indescribable value to those that receive His gift.

Three years ago, God granted us the resources and put in our hearts to
help start a church building in Mitoc, Prut. In the month of November, Pastor
ViorelIgnat has called us and told us the dedication will be in December 4th this
year and he wants us to be part of that Joy. Together with my parents who have
traveled 17 times to and from Romania, we planned to make a mission trip in
Romania with brotherPavelSav, Emanuel Margelu, and Daniel Turcoman. God has
given us the privilege to arrive safely in Bucharest and start the ministry even
there. We stopped at the Urziceni church and visited the ministry of
CostelGramada (an old friend). We then visited a family who had a completely paralyzed member living with them for
many years. We encouraged the family to receive the Lord Jesus ʹ the greatest gift that anyone can receive. After we
prayed and helped them, we departed and left them to the grace of our Lord Jesus. I met some of our team members in
Bucharest who delivered the documents to the minister of Romania for the project we are going to start. After hearing
the report of approval for the project, I was a little bit concerned about how we would complete such a big project. God
always shows up when it is His will to do something to encourage us and give us direction. I received a word from God
that night not to worry but to trust him as I have seen his hand at work during the years before I will see this again. Due
to the Romanian National Holiday, our plan to visit the Bucharest prison was cancelled. We departed toward northern
Romania as we drove on a very icy and snowy road, a belt from our car broke near the city of Marasest and we had to
stay there a motel and find a belt. In the morning, the owner of the hotel came and welcomed us and we started
sharing with him the greatest gift which Jesus Christ life-changing. He was very open and we shared with him the love of
Christ for over an hour. The driver, who was working hard to change the belt, said it was because of the owner͛s need to
hear the gospel that this happened to us. God has a purpose with everything be it good or bad. He works out His
sovereign will due to the fact that this man was a highly influential person in that
town. In the meantime the car was repaired and we departed with joy in our
hearts to continue towards northern Romania. We ministered in the churches
SfantulIlie, Dorohoi Church, Radauti Church, Vicov Church and others. As we
traveled to a mountainous area near the village of Nisisipiu we met the pastor
from the church in Nisisipiu and we learned something very interesting about the
history of this church. In this village, people are addicted to alcohol, witchcraft
and other evil. Years ago, a church was burned by the evildoers in their
opposition to the Light of Christ. Christians from other villages helped to build
another church but two years ago a big flood happened and destroyed the new
project completely. The president of the country TraianBasescu came to see the devastation of the flood and met with
the victims and questioned the ruins. People answered and said there was a Pentecostal church being built to which he
responded, ͞I want a Pentecostal church rebuilt in another place.͟ The Christian brothers were discouraged to continue
building again because of the previous experience and they concluded there was no resolution but God spoke through
the president who had no affairs in the matter. They started building again and the church was completed. Years ago I
spoke with one brother who was originally from that area ʹ MihaiZunichi ʹ who currently lives in Arizona, US. He asked
me what can be done regarding evangelism of Nisisipiu and I told him the only way that somebody would move and live
the life of Christ, this would challenge the people. During the time of flooding, the news was spread all over and a family
from Bucharest saw the devastation. God put in their hearts to go there and be
generous. When they arrived in Nisisipiu and saw the area, they were compelled
to move there and minister to the village people. God fulfilled that desire that I
had for a family to move there years ago. Now this family lives in the church
apartment and God moves in their ministry
with signs and miracles. I heard many
testimonies from this pastor on how God
has blessed and challenged certain
situations miraculously. Praised be His
name.

The dedication of the church in Mitoc Prut had great impact on the lives
of its village. The entire village was invited. The mayor had a speech and he was
highly impressed by the service and the atmosphere of God͛s presence really
touched his heart. He apologized during his speech for having a negative perspective regarding the Pentecostal
Christians because he was indoctrinated with atheism from the Communist party and never paid attention during the
past twenty years of opportunity to have a relation with Christ. This was the day when the vice mayor committed his life
to Jesus Christ. Other people were touched by the presence of God. We helped some people in poverty with money.

We crossed the border from Radauti Prut that night and headed to the
Republic of Moldova. After a few hours, we arrived in the village of Corjauti. We
were invited by Pastor VasileAntoci to preach in his church. This church is built on
top of a mountain hill and can be seen from far away. It is like it is described in
the book of Mica 4:1 ʹ 

 *This was a testimony of God͛s power and grace, because the church used to
be in the valley during the communist movement. We preached to this church
and visited also the bible school and helped them with some money. On this trip, I met VasileAsimonese, a very old
friend who used to come to the states in 1993. He is currently a mayor in the village of Balasinesti.

The next day, we ministered to the prison of Botosani to about 100

inmates and helped them with some goods. I was able to visit a friend who is an
inmate in this prison, TcaciucSeverin. We encouraged him to remain strong in the
Lord Jesus Christ. Together with my father, I had a trip to the village in which I was
born, Satu Mare. People were very happy to see him. My parents agreed to
donate the house to the Blessed Hope Mission as an asset to be used towards the
Glory of God in future ministries. We prayed that God will give us a purpose for it
and bless others.

Visiting the sick in their homes and pray for their healing was another
purpose in this trip. I remember one place where we held a prayer for healing for
a woman that got married in September
2010 and now both her kidneys failed. We
prayed for her restoration. A brother also
had a vision and a word of knowledge
regarding the project ʹ the Lord showed him
a miniature version of our project covered
with plastic that I could barely see through.
The Lord said to start by faith even though I
do not see clearly because He will bring other people to this project and I will
rejoice because of the completion and that I can see it. When the right word
penetrates your heart at precisely the right time, something supernatural happens.

You change more in a single moment than you changed in years. It͛s like
there is a special grace in your life and what you have been praying for and
believing for ʹ hits you all at once. This gave me another confirmation that the
project is according to the will of God. And as soon as we arrived to the states, I
sent the money for the steel material to be purchased. This was truly amazing
and I am thrilled to be able to share it with you now even before I see this project.
Since the very day we started this ministry, I have dreamed of being used by God
to bring freedom and new life in Jesus to as many people as we can. We need
help and faith to accomplish it and will also be able to help others.We continued
praying that night in one church from 7 PM to about 1 AM and departed toward Ukraine afterward.

We arrived in Ukraine in Kamenka village around 4 AM and rested a few hours. In our team were a few brothers
that the Lord used them mightily with a prophetic ministry. Acsenti Dorel, Jonerciuc Anton, MazareanuDanut and
MoloceniucFilon. We ministered to the church in Kamenka, Bahrenesti and Ijesti. The brothers from Ukraine are very
friendly and open to the word of God. God worked mightily among them and the plans of the devil were revealed to the
prophets of our team. We prayed that the work of the devil to be destroyed and people freely and happily serve the
Lord. 

to the church of Cluj, Zalau and Timisoara while we were in Ukraine. They were also able to minister to the prison in
Timisoara. We met again in Germany where we boarded our flight to the states.
