Randy and I have had the privilege of meeting Randy and Dawn Nicholas, who arrived in Bucuresti about the same time we returned from the States. On this cold blustery evening we had taken them to Kaufland for a supply of groceries and snacks for their upcoming language classes.
Randy and Dawn were one of the last Masters units that will be coming out of The Mission Board. Due to the economic crisis and how it effected the Southern Baptist Lottie Moon Christmas Offering of 2008, many changes and cut-backs have been made. At this point in time there will no longer be a Masters Program. They are both very thankful to have made it in before the final cut was made. Randy and Dawn, after completing their language course, will work in Braila, Romania with Troy Geddess.
During their remaining time here in Bucuresti, it is a pleasure to worship, fellowship and form a new friendship with these nice people from Tennessee.
We ask that you would make it a matter of prayer that each and every one of you would dig as deep into your pockets as you can for the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering this year. There is much at stake and many missionaries that want to remain on the field serving the Lord. We thank you for all your prayers.
