Bible Schools: In the summer of 2000, we held one-day Bible schools in two
villages with enough success to encourage us to try to do more. Volunteer teachers and
visual aids could help them improve their childrens ministries.
Volunteers: Experienced teachers will go to Romania to teach for a week or more.
Local English-speaking volunteers will serve as interpreters while being trained in use of
the materials. The materials will then be left there for the newly trained teachers to use
in the village churches.

Visual Aids: Flannelgraph works well and is easily adaptable to the setting. Last
summer, we left a complete flannelgraph set with a village childrens worker. She now
uses it to teach both in the church and in the public school.

YOUTH WORK: Village churches rely on volunteers for youth leadership, so it is
important for them to have materials to guide their development of a youth program. One of
the missioners that we help support has developed as a leader in this area of ministry.
Here are three ministries that we want to support.
AWANA: AWANA is a program developed in this country that has met with wonderful
success in Romania. Through this ministry, some village churches have more children in
AWANA than members in their churches.
