| From Roma |
We've been blessed by our church family here in Rome and are thankful that the Lord provided us with a congregation we could fellowship with. Despite our hectic travel schedule earlier in the semester, we were able to start attending a married couples' group for Bible Study and fellowship over the past month, where we've gotten to know some wonderful people from all over the globe, including the Philippines and Australia!
A couple of weeks ago, we also went out to lunch with Pastor Dave and his wife, Cathy, to share what the Lord has been doing in our lives and reflect on our time here in Rome. Their responsiveness to God's leading in their lives is a great example for us as we look ahead to a yet-unknown future.
As we prepare to attend our last Sunday at RBC and say goodbye to several new (but dear) friends, I'm reminded of the way God has surrounded us with His people so faithfully. Although we're sad to leave Rome and the RBC congregation, it encourages us to know that we will be welcomed home by our beloved family at Christ's Church in Michiana. I suppose if it weren't for the sadness of goodbyes, we couldn't have the sweetness of reunions.
Thank you, Lord, for the time You've given us in Rome and for ministering to us through the believers of Rome Baptist Church. We praise You for the awesome things You are doing in and through RBC! Please encourage Pastor Dave and Cathy, bless their ministry and continue to influence and draw people to Yourself, for Your glory, through the impact of Rome Baptist Church.
We pray these things in the powerful name of Jesus, Amen.
