Itinerary

Well the day is almost here and we are busy finishing up last minute details so we can leave knowing we did all that needed to be done. Please continue to pray for our family and our church. Our mothers are both older and we are always concerned leaving them.
Here is our itinerary as of the moment.
*
Leave Cleveland on Saturday March 7 at 2:25 arrive in Bucharest on Sunday at 2:05 p.m. there time. We will be picked up by our friends, Gaby and Adina and they will take us to Tirgoviste to our hotel. Pastor Mihai and Eliza will meet with us there after their church service.
*
March 9 we will begin ministry in Romania with a leaders/wives meeting and then meet with any couples from the church for a time of teaching and question and answers session.
*
March 10-11-12 we will be meeting one on one with different couples and ministering in whatever way the Lord shows us. We will also be working in time to fellowship with our friends there and are really looking forward to that.
*
March 13 at 7:00 a.m. we will be flying out of Bucharest Romania. That means we have to be at the airport by 5 a.m. which means we have to leave Tirgoviste at 3 a.m. to get there. This will be a long day and we will need much prayer. We arrive in Donetsk at 3:10 p.m. and will be met by Ebi and will have a 2 hour car ride to get to Slavynsk and then he will take us to dinner at his home. Pray that we will not have jet lag and will be able to sleep on the plane trips.
*
March 14 we will meet with our translator Ruslin to get to know him and then we will have lunch with one of the pastors and that evening we will have a time of ministry with the young couples of the church. The church is named Good News Church.
*
March 15 Wayne will be preaching at the Good News Church and that is all we know at this point about the Sunday ministry.
*
March 16- 18 th at 12 p.m. our Marriage Seminar/Seminary Class begins at 9 and goes until 4 each day. We have been asked to be available after classes to minister to individuals or couples.
*
March 18th after lunch until March 20 we will teach our Parenting Seminar/Seminary Class using the same schedule as to time.
*
March 21st we assume will be a free day
*
Sunday March 22nd Wayne will be preaching at Pastor Olegs church.
*
March 23 we leave to come home. Our plane leaves Donetsk at 11:15 a.m. which means another early morning of travel by car so we can arrive at the airport by 9. We will have an overnight layover in Munich and then will leave there on March 24 at 10:25 a.m. and fly home.
We covet your prayers while we are gone and will update the blog every opportunity we get so you can see what the Lord is doing.
*
CCF remember that we are representing you as a congregation as well as our Lord so you will get to share in whatever fruit there is from these missions. Thank you for allowing us to go and do this. We love you all for it more than you can ever know.

Ask the pilot to put the plane in high gear or whatever. I miss you guys. And I can hardly wait to hear your stories, especially the one about the translator with no emotions, poor guy.

Love you, Sharon
