Normally Easter is not celebrated in Romania the same time as it is in the U.S. It is usually at least one week or more later. But this year it was celebrated the same week.
We had a wonderful Easter Sunday. We visited the church we attended when we first came to Romania. It was good to visit with them and celebrate the Resurrection Sunday. We also enjoyed a delicious meal with them afterwards.
In the afternoon, we attended our church in Vinga. The children did a skit and it was really good. Many people in the church recited poems or sung songs or quoted scripture. It was a good service.
They asked if Buddy or I wanted to share something. We were not prepared because we didn't know they were going to ask us to share, but I shared briefly about 3 important celebrations in the life of a Christian. First we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Saviour, second we celebrate the death and Resurrection of our Lord and Savior and third we celebrate the acceptance of Jesus as our Lord and Savior, our salvation experience.
This is our purpose as missionaries to share with others how they too can personally celebrate the acceptance of Jesus as their Lord and Saviour.
