In spite of a logistically challenging itinerary for our team in Moldova and Romania, the Lord granted such wonderful blessings and was faithful to glorify Himself throughout the trip.  At every place, Kim and Judy from Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch shared their incredible stories of how Jesus brought beauty from brokenness in their lives and in those they minister to through CPYR.  We saw salvations, healings and fabulous encouragement for women (and men) throughout both countries. We are so very thankful for the many dear friends who hosted us, transported us, housed us, cared for us and loved on us.  We were thrilled with every divine appointment and profoundly moved by such generous hearts poured out for Jesus.

One of the many beautiful moments was capturing Kim and Judy standing on a bluff overlooking a village in Moldova called Gordinesti.  With raised arms - rejoicing in God's goodness, proclaiming blessing over what He is doing and will continue to do in this place that doesn't even have running water.  He is moving mightily there and is giving Himself as the Living Water.
The May 28th leadership training conference in Chisinau, Moldova to introduce our Russian Bible study, Jesus the One and Only by Beth Moore, was a wonderful success.  Speaking through our amazing translator went very well, and Eugenia did a fabulous job coordinating the conference.


Bethany wrote and led a skit to help illustrate some of the challenges leaders may encounter in Bible study small groups.  She demonstrated a leader's "non favorable response" versus a more "appropriate response" to several issues and situations.  Needless to say, it was hilarious and yet very helpful.  The conference attendees enjoyed the fun and appreciated some helpful information. Lepta TV in Kiev, Ukraine did the video translation, voice over and production.  Many conference attendees indicated the translation and voice-over were really great.  Praise the Lord!!  Job well done, Yana Glazunova and team at Lepta TV!!
