Buckner Shoes

Just had a team come through from Illinois. Their church, Buckner (based in Dallas TX) has a ministry center in another city in Romaina so they just stop by our project on their way south. But they are a huge blessing becuase of the shoes they bring. Every year they donate shoes for our entire ministry!! This year the shoes got caught up in customs but they were able to get us 200 shoes for our foster ministry and all the kids at CP2 (the orphanage). It was amazing to be able to bless all those kids with new shoes for the winter. And to top it all off, in a few weeks we will be able to get the almost 2,000 shoes that Buckner sent from America!!! It will be great to get shoes out to the gypsies who are walking around bearfoot in this cold. God has provided in a big way as he always does!

Alex,
It's Mom! You'll laugh, but I left a message and it didn't show up, so I need you to teach me how to do this! HA! I am so proud of you and your willingness to serve. You have taught me so much about servant leadership--as well as many other things. The kids in Oradea are so blessed to have you there. "I thank my God every time I remember you." Phil. 1:3
Love you and God bless you, Mom
