Saturday in Cluj (August 2)

We finished our studies this morning with a 2-hour lesson with Valer, a wonderful man whom we met at one of the seminar sessions this week. He is a sincere student of the Bible and is seriously considering the gospel. We're thankful for our time with him.

After we completed that study, Claudiu arranged for van to pick us up and take us for a 40-kilometer drive into the mountains outside Cluj. Justin and Curtis wanted to visit the camp location in the village of Somesul Rece. We also stopped in the town of Gilau and enjoyed some soft drinks at a resort on the lake. It was a fabulous way to end our daily work.

Curtis and Justin will deliver the Bible class lesson and sermon (respectively) tomorrow and we will leave shortly thereafter for the airport. Given our busy schedules tomorrow, this will be my last post to the blog from Romania. Our time here has been a genuine blessing to the three of us. We pray that it has been profitable for those to whom we have ministered this week. We're thankful for some many things: the opportunity to be here; those of you who have sacrificed to help us make this trip; to Claudiu and Anca for enabling our efforts; the brothers and sisters in Cluj who have been supportive; and to God for his goodness! We will arrive home (Little Rock) at 7:15 p.m. on Tuesday evening. Until then...

Marty
