On Sept 10, 2016 a team of missionaries from Elevate Church in Monroe Michigan will travel to Chisinau, Moldova to work with the New Hope Moldova team to share the gospel by working to restore the physical and spiritual needs of the Gypsie community in that country. The team will share our experiences and how God is changing our lives on this blog.

God's plan is better than ours

We are in our second day of the trip and I have to say we are offff the ground and running!  Things can move fast here in Moldova.  We arrived in Balti today.  A day later than planned because of unexpected changes to our (not God's) original schedule.  When we landed at the boy's transition home there were people waiting for the clinic to open. They didn't know the clinic was closed until tomorrow.  Or maybe we didn't know God's schedule?  Of course we couldn't turn them away.  We figured we would serve the few who were there and then take some time later to get properly set up.  Again God had a different schedule...  So a few turned into many as the afternoon took off and the clinic got slammed with patients.  Our team was incredible as they just faithfully responded to the change and worked together to get the Clinic setup and serve the patients.



A second part to the Mission trip is an after school Bible camp.  Our team also wasn't expecting to start this today either (again, our plan not God's).  But the team responded with games, songs, and a lot of energy!  It was a great first day and God brought some very amazing children to the camp!


It is an amazing thing for me to witness people filled with the Lords spirit coming together not for their own glory but for his.  Incredible things were accomplished through God today and I see this team already getting better.  I can't wait for tomorrow!
