Today the kids were better behaved. (Thanks for the prayers!)
The adult class had a new student who was brought by one of the ladies in the class. She was covered from head to toe in black except for an opening just large enough for her eyes and mouth. We found out after class that she was an Orthodox nun. She lives and serves at the church, and also raises pigs and chickens and grows crops. Becky and Sid have been journal-sharing with ladies from that church. We suspect that those journals will be shared with the nun and priest. Please pray that God's Spirit will touch these people. The class, including our 'new student', got to hear our interpreter, Tina, share her testimony. We didn't understand a word, but we know it was powerful!
After class, we were "forced" to see a sunset at the Black Sea. It was beautiful! (Although a large ship thoughtlessly positioned itself in the way!) The sand at this beach is actually black, and said to have healing powers through its magnetic characteristics. Becky, Sid and Anne went for a swim in the cool water; it was a great experience. This town is a seaside resort, but for most of the people life is not easy. Please pray for these people and that this camp, and potential church can bring Christ into their lives.
