Day 10: Church and Rest

The Regent team was again blessed to attend church in the village of Tilead this morning. Unlike last week, however, the team members contributed to the service by reading scripture and leading the congregation in praise and worship. Dr. Reese preached an excellent sermon on reconciliation, based on the story of Jesus meeting the Samaritan woman at the well, found in John chapter four. Following the sermon, the team was treated to a performance of the Tilead children’s choir, who had just returned from a two-week tour of the UK.


As a part of counseling and clinical training, the trauma team has been constantly reminded of the dire need for self-care. This afternoon, the team enjoyed a leisurely afternoon of free time. Some elected to go into downtown Oradea, while others chose to lounge by the pool or catch up on sleep. It was a time of relaxation and rejuvenation, as the team prepares for another week of training, presentations, and time of sharing in the community.
