Here are just a few photos I snapped as we got up early and loaded our belongings into a rented van and drove the several hundred kilometers from Bucharest, Romania to Brno, Czech Republic. We were blessed to be able to hire a long time friend, Florian Corboveanu, to drive us there. He is a wonderful driver and has helped our personnel since the late 1990’s with transportation needs… mostly with assisting volunteer teams. This trip was bitter sweet in a way because of our long time connection to Romania. Yet, we know that God has a plan for us to be used in Brno and beyond. This is just another chapter in the story of our ministry.
