Missionary to Romania
It's about time we had a missionary to Romania blogging. Actually, there are two missionary to Romania blogs that I'd like to feature here. But first, a little about Romania... A few facts about RomaniaRomania is in southeastern Europe. It's capitol, Bucharest, is a city of over 2 million. Bucharest was the first city in the world to be lit with oil lamps (in 1856). Romania has a beautiful combination of geography, and is famous for the Danube River, the Black Sea, and the Carpathian Mountains.The dominant religion in Romania is Romanian Orthodox. There are significant numbers of other groups, such as Reformed and Evangelical, are in Romania, but growth has been slow in recent years. There is freedom of religion, but there are still strict regulations, suspicion and even persecution. A Christian in Romania may deal with things like ethnic disunity, materialism, poverty, and many groups in which there is very little Christian witness at all. Please pray for Romania!
Missionary to Romania blogs
Three of our missionaries in Romania have been blogging since before 2006 - a decent amount of time in the blogging world. First, in Buzau, Romania is our first missionary to Romania. Buzau is a city of about 135,000. The blog is written by Dave Bunnell, is updated regularly, and you can even leave comments. Dave and Lili Bunnell are sharing the Gospel in a variety of ways in the area. Here are the details about their blog:The Bunnell Blog News feed: davebunnell.wordpress.com/feed Next, be sure to check out A Work in Progress, a blog out of Talpos. Also, we have Romania Missions, currently the newest blog on this page. And just one more! The Dunn family in Romania has a blog and a website with lots more information. Be sure to check out what they're up to in Arad, Romania. The Dunns have been blogging since November 2005, and now have a news feed as well. They also have a praise and prayer page, a photo gallery, and interesting information about the country of Romania.
