Update – August, 2026
Scripture tells us to be thankful in all things, but my July 7 trip/flight from Logan Airport in Boston to Zurich to Bucharesti kind of put that to the test. It wasn’t the worst trip I have ever had, but certainly one of the most difficult. I’m not going into detail here but from the get-go including the couple of weeks before I even left my home in MA, seemingly ‘everything’ went sideways, wrong-side-out, and upside down — and it still is here in Romania. I would appreciate prayer!
It has been necessary to do all the paperwork for the government – again! – in order to be with our precious ones in the orphanages. That has taken up much of my time since arriving back in this, the ‘other’ land that I love!
It has been JOY to see precious friends since arriving back – and beyond JOY spending my first Sunday with our church folks at Canaan. I was told that I had stayed away far too long. Though it was necessary for me to spend extra time in MA with so much work to do on the house in Norton, I agreed with them!
Just to let you know, too, that two of our Romanian pastors made another trip to Ukraine in July! It was extremely dangerous for them – more so than ever before – but they joyfully completed their mission bringing some very precious Romanians much needed food, both physical food and spiritual food. If you want to know more and are not on my Update list, please send me your email address (lvfrmabv@yahoo.com) and I will include you on the list. There, I can show some pictures, also.
I will also include that Love From Above was not nearly able to fund this last trip to UA as we have previously. The funds just weren’t there. It broke my heart! If you feel led to help/share with our precious brothers and sisters in Christ in that war-torn land, there would be those SO grateful to our Lord for you!!
Lord willing, I will be able to let you know more about our precious orphans in next month’s post on the website – or, sooner if you wish to be on LFA’s email Update list.
Trusting you are enjoying all the beauty God has created for us during this season of the year . . .
