A Romanian Church of God missionary reports that the altars in Arad, Romania were filled with youth, passionate and tearful, committing their lives to Christ.
Arad is located in the western part of Romania with a population of 183,939. The head of the Pentecostal Union, Brother Tipei, pastors the great Bethania Church where the recent Arad Youth Conference was held.
The focus was on the Romanian youth who comprise about one-fourth of the entire Romanian population. The day ended with a great youth rally where Tony Lane, coordinator of discipleship and children’s ministry, spoke on the theme “Missing!” It was a powerful message augmented with video clips, including one about the deaths of missionaries trying to reach Indians of South America.
The altars were filled with youth, passionate and tearful, committing their lives to Christ—“It will cost you everything!” The team consisted of both Americans and Romanians. There were holy moments when youth touched the hem of His garment!
Unforgettable!
