I am so excited for this next transfer! I know we are going to see many miracles! I love this place and these people with my whole heart. This place is my home now and it is going to be hard to leave. I have seen miracles happen and lives change and I am so grateful. I know that I was sent here by God and that He is now sending me to Bucharest. I can't wait to see what he has in store there. This week we have been so busy with meeting with people! We have run (sometimes literally) from lesson to lesson and have seen miracles everywhere we go. We have continued talking to everyone that the Lord puts in our path and have continued to pray every time we travel. The Lord has been with us! I think the greatest way that I saw God's hand working in our life this week was as we visited families for the Family Home Evening lesson with Light the World. We had an amazing lesson with Aurelia and Salvatore at their home latara (in the countryside) and also a great lesson with Sora Bian. We have been working with her a lot and really encouraging her to do missionary work. She has told us over and over that she doesn't know anyone that is not already a member. We encouraged her to pray and told her that God would help her to find someone. When we set up for the Family Home Evening we reminded her of the blessings promised already as she would dedicate herself to inviting someone. When we went over she had a friend of hers that was of another faith. We had a great lesson and Sora Bian felt the spirit of missionary work in a way that I had never seen it touch her before. We were able to talk about Light the World and when we asked her friend if he had any referrals at the end of the lesson he said he and his family would love to meet with us again. He also suggested that we share the message with people on the streets (good idea haha). We have continued to work with our wonderful people Lorena, Horia, and Gabriel as well as others. Lorena and Horia are doing well and continue to progress. It is harder because they both live outside of Cluj and come to the city rarely. But they are both dedicated to reading and learning more and I have seen a change in them. This last week we were able to meet with Horia and he said he really wants to know if this is the Church of Christ. He really listened to the message and has been learning a lot on his own at home. Gabriel has been hesitant about learning more and really putting his trust in God but I know that he will find his answers. We also met with some new people this week and were able to see miracles with them as well. I am so grateful again that I was able to serve here in Cluj-Napoca and I can't wait to get started in Bucharest!
