Christmas greetings from the First Baptist Church, Cluj, Romania

Dear brothers and sisters,

We wish you blessed holidays filled with peace and joy!
Thank you for all the support you have given this year for the various ministries of our church. We pray that God will reward you and bless the work you are doing in His service!

Through the support you have provided, you have helped us assist hundreds of people in difficulty by offering food packages and, in some special cases, financial aid.

The Roma church in Florești has also been blessed by the support given to them, as have the young people of the church and many other people.

May God bless you!

”Wait on the LORD: Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.” Psalm 27:14

Hello, my name is Filip Bogoșel, I am 19 years old, and I am studying Computer Science, first year. I’m still trying to adapt to the new lifestyle here in Cluj. I am a music lover and in my free time I like playing piano and guitar. I am very grateful to have the opportunity to study in Cluj and I thank you for your generosity!

Hi! My name is Paniță Estera. I’ll be 22 next month and my hometown is Slatina, which is a small town in the south of Romania, aproximately 350km from Cluj. I am a 3rd year dentistry student, at the Univesity of Medicine and Pharmacy in Cluj-Napoca. I come from a family of 3, with a younger sister, who’s a preschool teacher since graduating highschool 3 years ago, and a younger brother, a preschooler, only 4 years old. My mom works as a pharmacy assistant and my dad delivers medicine. They’re hard-working, simple people, that made my going to college possible and I love with all my heart.

As for my life in Cluj, i’m glad to have made a few good friends that share my beliefs and to have found a church that preaches the Gospel truthfully. I’ve seen here people my age, that are trully dedicated and have a heart for prayer and serving others, that enjoy studying the Word of God and I am at happy to be able to join them. I hope to come to love God more in the next 3 years and a half i’ll be staying in Cluj. I know God has already blessed me so much and i am thankful that He does so in the most unexpected ways. I thank you too, for being being one of His blessings for me this year! I pray you’ll be blessed as well.

Hello,

My name is Samuel DELPHIN, I am from Haiti, and I am 29 years old. I am a first year PhD student at USAMV Cluj-Napoca. Since I arrived in Romania, God has sent me to the Church where I will grow in His Word and where I will feel welcomed. So, since 2022 I became a member of 1 Manastur Baptist Church and I try to involve myself as much as I can in the Lord’s work to Praise Him for all He has done in my life.

I would like to express my gratitude to you for the way you have thought of the young people of Manstastur Church through this scholarship. Thank you very much for this generous financial support which is crucial for me and which has helped me to realize how well the Lord cares for me and has never failed to respond to my needs.

Know that the word thank you will never be enough to express my gratitude to you! May the Lord bless you abundantly and be with you in all that you do.

Thank you so very muchand be blessed!

Samuel DELPHIN
