Little did I know at the time that I would be back just 2 weeks later to help with a Women's Day at the same church. I had been learning and practicing worship songs in Romanian for a few months on the guitar and piano, so I was able to lead worship for the Women's Day. It was really awesome how I had been practicing for months before I even knew when I would be using the songs. Just a few days after the above picture was taken, our team leader Wanda asked all the women on our team to help with the Women's Day. It was amazing how diverse our team is - I volunteered to do music, Wanda was going to give the main message, another woman volunteered to coordinate the food, and another woman said she had some gifts we could use. So cool how God put us all together and planned everything before we even knew about it.
The Women's Day event took place on March 9, and there were a total of 48 women who came! About 20 of them were guests, which is a great testimony to the women of the church who invited their friends and family. This is not a big church - almost all of the seats in the entire church were filled with just women. Everything went so smoothly - we played a game, sang together, shared the gospel, and of course ate great food! Please pray for this church - that they would continue to reach out to the people around them who don't know Christ, and that God would richly provide for them.
Here are a few photos from the event:

In case you're interested in hearing some Romanian, here is a short clip of everyone singing. Some of you may recognize this song...it is a translation of "Here I Am to Worship."

Great food
