Our Newest Roommates

We have been working at the English/Bible school for three weeks and we have one more to go. The McPhersons were here for the first two weeks of the institute and when they left, the Browns came to join us. Marcus is an elder in the church in Alabama and also works for University of Alabama teaching computer programming. His wonderful wife Carol is the head office manager in their church in Tuscaloosa.

They had no problem diving into the activity of the campaign and their students have enjoyed getting to know them. It has been extra special for us because every morning we have a devotional before class and the Browns are good singers. We have also enjoyed listening to the Marcus give us wise thoughts about life and spiritual matters.

We enjoyed being on the train with them yesterday as we went to the black sea on the train. 8 hours on a train gave use some good talking and laughing time. Last week, on a bus ride home, Carol made friends with an 84 year old woman who was dressed in traditional Romanian clothing. Although the lady spoke little English and Carol speaks little Romanian, they hit it off. Mostly because of Carol's out-going personality.

It has been a good week getting to know the Browns and we look forward to spending more time with them in the coming week.
