After a 2 hour delay sitting on the runway at the Atlanta Airport we finally took off… We arrived at the Chisinau airport Thursday afternoon.
 

 

That was a interesting evening trying to get use to the 7 hour time difference… We all finally fell asleep around 11:00pm Moldova time 4:00 pm USA and all were awake by 4:00am and ready to go!
The purpose for this trip is to be with the folks at Meteora or as we would call it “Metro”… It’s a Church/Community center for people of all ages here in the capital city. We are going to be teaching English classes for the day camp starting on Monday. So, the first three days are to get use to the time change/Sight seeing/souvenirs buying.

We were glad to have Ira our translator along with us today to help us with the market and figuring out our way around town! There is also a fella named Sergiu who has been in charge of making sure we get everywhere we need to be. He is a great guy that LOVES him some ping pong.. (We will post a better picture of him later) Here is a picture of the team with Ira the translator. She took us to see the Orthodox church downtown. Friday and Saturday night we were at Meteora were they had two events. Friday night was for the youth and Saturday night for couples. Here is a few pictures from the two nights.

Sunday we will spend the whole day preparing for the camp and start some training for the week ahead. Thanks so much for all the prayers!
