Report from E3’s trip to Romania July 2014
Blessings to each of you! I trust you all are well. Our team of 23 is now home, happy to be reunited with their families and ready to share with them as well as their churches and friends the results of God’s call for each of us to join Him in His work last week. Adrian and I are still in Romania but in Bucharest until Thursday July 24, meeting people and working on details for 2015 and I Am Second Romania.
What a joy and encouragement each of you had been for Arian and me! I praise God and thank Him for your prayers during our time of service in Suceava. We have felt each and every one of them and we have seen lives transformed on both sides. Your prayers caused the unity, good chemistry and sense of humor this team was blessed with. The team was flexible and ready to adjust and redirect as the circumstances required. Though uniquely designed and gifted each individual was a critical part for the proper function of the team as a body, His body, His church. Adrian and I are very, very grateful and we are looking forward to serving with each of them again.
Please pray for those that heard the Gospel but did not commit.
Pray for those that surrendered their lives to Christ and pray for the mission pastors as they will begin the important but hard follow up work and discipleship process.
Below are the statistics related to the Kingdom work you have been a part of last week. Use it as needed to rejoice, glorify the Lord and to encourage others to join us in future trips. As soon as I’ll return, I’ll try to let you know the dates for 2015 Suceava Expedition and other opportunities.

Many families are strengthened and encouraged to place Jesus and His teaching in the center of their relationships. Continue to pray for Jim and Cheryl as they started with us in Suceava and will continue to minister until meeting up with us again in Constanta first week in September. During this journey they also learn, adjust and redirect according to the culture and traditions we need to overcome in each new place.
We have powerful stories of people we met, served and ministered to inspired by the Holy Spirit that we know will be as meaningful to you as they are to us. I will email some of their testimonies as soon as I’ll return.
Thank you once again for your continuous prayers, keep us posted and know that you are loved, appreciated and prayed for by name,
Priscilla Nicoara
