Working with the CERI team








So the Orthodox Christmas is one January 7th!! We got to celebrate the holidays twice this year. What a treat?! We were also excited to find out that there was a CERI mission team staying at the Team House when we got here. We have been able to tag along on some of their escapades and have amazing experiences. We helped wrap presents to take to the children at the orphanage on Christmas. Clothes, toothbrushes, pens, etc. The team also let us go along with them to take food to families in poverty in the village of Calarasi. It was so touching to see the hospitality and joy of these families and their willingness to let us in their lives. My favorite opportunity was spending time at the orphanage. Getting to know the children was so much fun and such a great reminder of why we are here. I just hope we can make half as much of an impression on Moldova as it has already made on us.
