Last week we took the young adults in our mentor program as well as a few graduates and a few of the older kids from the houses on an outing to the mountains near Brasov. The purpose of this outing as you can see was to teach the kids to snowboard. We were very thankful to have along with us Sarah Burgess, who was visiting for the week and is a competitive snowboarder in the States.
Sarah was a great teacher even with the language barrier and by the end of the day, most of the kids were making it down the hill with few falls. It was a great time together learning something new, having good conversations and just enjoying a day away.
Later that evening we were able to meet a couple from Brasov for dinner who shared with these young adults the importance of surrounding yourself with Christians who are a good influence on you and with whom you can grow in your faith. Their lessons of discipleship and how it had impacted their lives and the lives of others around them was a perfect way to end the day!
