Mercy and truth have met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other. Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from Heaven. Ps 85:10-11 YOU ARE A RIGHTEOUS GOD, I PRAISE YOU LORD, FOR YOU KNOW EVERYTHING, YOU WORK JUDGMENT AND RIGHTEOUSNESS TO THE POOR AND YOU STAND AGAINST THE LIER, GREAT ARE YOU MY LORD!

Mandolin Orchestra praising the Lord

Packages with cloths are waiting

Every family receives a package with food

After eight months that passed so fast, I am back home with my family, leaving behind battles, storms and disappointments, and also much joy, joy that made me forget the trouble and the trials that every minister of the Lord have to face. It is good to come closer to the Lord and to wait for His time when he answers our prayers, when He works in our lives and He vindicates His people. In my letter from October 2011 I shared with you about houses and wells we built, the joy of families who moved in these new and clean houses, with furniture and heating that warm not only their families but also their troubled souls. They enjoy the clean water from wells and also the living water that the Lord supplies to every thirsty soul who wants to drink from it. At the village of Paltinis, little children and joyless families are today under Gods protection, as the Burdujeni Church, Suceava, decided to take care of them spiritually. They were the only ones who offered to bring to them the bread of life and the living water. Young people from Burdujeni visited our canteen where every day 70, 80 and even 100 children are fed. They came with good will to minister to these children, to teach them from the Word of God about the Creator of the universe and they brought much hope to parents and children.

The whole church also agreed that every other week a group of people, some young and some older, to go and to minister to them. They saw the poverty, the pain and the spiritual need of the good news of the Gospel, to tell them about the love of Christ who is patiently waiting for everyone to come to Him. The ministry is good and the Lord is glorified. Young people full of compassion and on fire for the Lord made a research in the village and they found that one hundred families are in great needs and sufferings. They went back to Burdujeni and during one week they put together one hundred packages with food and other packages with cloths with the right sizes for the children and for the adults, and the following week they came with four vehicles full with these filled packages. Accompanied by the church orchestra and Evangelists, they had a real celebration in this village. This is what we can do if we want to work for the Glory of God. He blessed us so much and we ask, what should we do to show our love for Him also? This is the question every one of us should ask. They found one of the houses with only one room where 11 people were living there, parents, children and grandchildren. They planned to build the fourth house at Paltinis, this time for this family. I am full of joy and I glorify the Lord whos the Father of the poor and of the forgotten, to Him be the glory, for He is the Father of the poor and of the orphan. I want to thank the Bethel Church from Burdujeni, Suceava, and also to our brother and sisters in Christ from USA who helped us to buy food, firewood and to prepare everything for the winter. The Lord is watching us, He knows what we have and what we need, we are in the last month of this year and if anyone forgot about us, they still have this whole month and they can give us their blessed support. Not only at Vaslui, but wherever you know poor families, widows, orphans who are crying to the Lord for help, have compassion on them and dont withhold what belongs to the Lord, for you can lose everything. My interview with The Voice of Evangel in Suceava had a great impact. The way Brother Daniel Grigoriciuc, the Director of the Radio Channel, asked me questions many hearts were touched, and a blessed harvest came after: 75,350 Ron ($25,115), 2,050 and $650, it was an opportunity for many people to gather Treasures in Heaven. This money was used to build three brand new houses, with wood stoves, furniture, rugs, window curtains, hard wood floors, electricity, two families already moved in, one of them with five children and one of them with three children, we built also two wells in one village, which are so much needed and we still have money to build another well in another village and to pour the foundation for the fourth house and our brothers from the Burdujeni Church will build the rest. So many things can be done when the Lord opens ears and hearts. Our sisters in Christ from Radauti offered 3,300 Ron ($1,100) and groceries: cooking oil, sugar, rice, onions, potatoes that were sent directly to the canteen at Gardesti, Vaslui. May the Lord reward them! In November we received from USA through EEFE from: Vasile Blidar Family $150, Isarie Stinea $100, Tudorel Fachiol $100, Michael Sullivan $25, and also from Pacurar Family of Oregon $100, Florian Anachim $200, Conejos Canion Ted Long $500, Florin Diaconescu $100, Life Bridge Church from Indiana $100, Total $1,375 which will be sent to Romania for the needs of the three canteens at Bacet, Paltinis and Gardesti, Vaslui. We are praying for all of you and we thank the Lord for you. I am very sure that the Lord who is rich and faithful will always reward you for your sacrifices. Could you please pray for us also. This is a great ministry, it is not an easy one and the enemy and his servants are troubling us, especially when we dont expect it. But we trust in the Lord and we have the victory. TO GOD BE THE GLORY! With great respect and love, your sister in Christ: Lidia Rascol Tel. 734-485-5791 Email lidiarascol@earthlink.net
