Usually on a mission trip, you end up sleeping in some run down old hole in the wall. Well, this vacati.....um....mission trip, the Lord has blessed us with some wonderful accomodations. So after working hard, we can sleep in comfort (i.e. air conditioner). And all God's children said...AMEN!
As you walk into the training center, you head up the stairs to a landing where you find this glass entry way. Through the glass you can see the door to the area where we're staying. If you were to go through the door and to the right, there is another compex for people to stay in as well.
Once through our front door, to the right you'll find this kitchen area. We've got a small fridge, a sink (where Lanny does the dishes...of course!), table & chairs, and of course a coffee maker. Amen!!!
Here is a view of our hallway looking into the kitchen. I think we've got enough footware for an entire village. You can also see from this picture the floormat that leads into the girls' room (on the right). The guys room is right behind me.
After walking through our door you'll find this! Andrew passed out for an afternoon siesta! (I must pick on him...and Lanny later...because they've got plenty of pictures of me sleeping. May the Lord bless their hearts!!!
And of course the bathroom of all bathrooms. Have you ever seen the movie 'The Fly'? Our shower feels a little like that. It's a cool space capsule type set up, standard with overhead lighting, a fan, and of course the built in radio which picks up all Romanian music all day long!!!
So when you think of missions and how difficult it is to "rough it" in another country, don't be fooled too much. However, the afternoon sweedish massages and the exfoliation treatments aren't quite as good as the one's you'd get in the states, but who am I to complain. So next time we've got a missionary in our church looking for help, feel free to follow in the words of Isaiah, "Here I am Lord, SEND ME!!!!!!" (note: massages and exfoliation may not be accurate)
