It's conference week in Romania! We currently have a team leading a women's conference at Impact Church in Oradea and next week a new team will come in to put on a leadership conference at the Bible college. Each team is taking time to connect with RTC churches and participate in outreach alongside longstanding partners. Mission teams bring an energy and encouragement that is a blessing for us and for many whom we serve.
As the war in Ukraine continues, Remember the Children remains committed to assisting with the changing needs through local partnerships. Our friend Jaco recently shared about a specific need that RTC is helping to address.
It brings us great joy to celebrate a milestone in the journey of Remember the Children's church planting mission in Tabora. Three years ago, with your generous support, we backed one of our house parents, Pastor Dionis Buhanda, to plant a new church called The House of Love.
Whether there are individual friends of RTC at your church or your church as a whole supports RTC, it would be a blessing to visit you. We are passionate about partnering with churches, and we hope our ministry creates opportunities for your congregation to see, know, and reach those in need across the world.
The focus of this year's conference was specifically discipleship making as a foundation for the church. Remember the Children believes in the crucial role the church plays in communities, families, and the lives of children through the work of spreading the gospel and making disciples. Each one of our RTC churches have a focus on their neighbors and a conviction that Jesus is the source of all real and lasting transformation.
New Year is a time of hope and expectation, but for our Ukrainian friends it marks yet another year of war and praying to someday return to a peace filled homeland. There are still several refugees living at the East European Bible College through the support of RTC. EEBC reaches many more refugees in the Oradea region, offering supplies, education, and community. The Ukrainian community also utilizes the campus chapel for Sunday worship services.
