Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving! Although we missed our friends and family back in America, we had a great time celebrating with new friends in Romania. On Wednesday evening, we hosted several Romanian friends in our home for a traditional Thanksgiving dinner, which was the first time most of them had eaten stuffing and cranberry sauce. It was a really sweet time of fellowship - we each shared what we are thankful for, ate a lot, played some games, and spent time worshiping together through music and prayer.

 

 

Behold the feast! 

 

All of us gathered around the table.

 

Celebrating and giving thanks to God through worship music.

 

Our American friends had a Thanksgiving celebration on Thursday, which was really fun.  Plus, our Romanian tutor and her husband came, too.  Unfortunately, Cameron had to stay home because of a sore throat, so Jessica went by herself.  But he enjoyed the plate of food she brought home!  (His voice has now returned, and he is on his way to getting better.  Praise the Lord!)

 

 

Enjoying the meal.

 

 

"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
    his love endures forever.

Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story—
those he redeemed from the hand of the foe,
those he gathered from the lands,
from east and west, from north and south."

 - Psalm 107
