Just last month I was thinking I was going to leave Europe behind and head back home. Well funny thing is God sorta had a different plan. After talking to the Romanian team and to the Stoner's a little more. I decided to try to extend my visa. I am still in the process but it looks like a done deal considering the Pastor in charge of the Baptist Union for Romania is the one writing my recommendation. The only way it wouldn't go through at this point is if the secret police decide to throw me out of the country. Which I am pretty sure I am no real threat.
The rest of my time in Romania will be spent helping my roommates with the orphanage and village out reach. I am hoping to learn some Romanian so I can maybe venture out to a baby hospital by myself. We will see if that happens but I did start my first Romanian lesson today. I think it went well. I guess I will know now in a couple weeks if I am learning anything by whether people can understand me or not.
I feel really good about staying here. Kim and Jenny's church has already welcomed me and it helps a lot to know your welcomed and they are willing to let me serve with them. A lot of them are already trying to convince me to stay forever. And I just keep on smiling at them... haha.
