Today has been packed full with activities! We began the morning with three different village food distributions. Such an amazing opportunity to bless these families with simple necessities we take for granted, bread, flour, oil, pasta, socks, other items. The team was upbeat, gave a smile and valuable eye contact to each person who went through the line. We did our best to greet them with 'Peace' or 'Happy Easter' in Romanian. Many faces lit up with gratitude as our students greeted them in their native language. Each village held a unique memory, at Ucea, the first stop, we were able to take polaroid pictures of all the children & teenagers for their parents. We are so used to having photos growing up but in these poor villages, cameras and photos are non-existent luxuries for them. To see the faces of those parents light up as they held perhaps the only photo they have of their child, priceless!
