Just a quick note to let you know that I will be in the states this summer on deputation.

My first service is already schedule for May 20th at Beavertown God’s Missionary Church (my home church) and I will be holding services until the middle of August.

My mom will be helping with my scheduling, so many of you will be hearing from her in the near future.  She does a wonderful job and it makes it a little easier to have a contact in America who people can call.

If you would be interested in having me come for a missionary service, you can either e-mail me at  with your contact information, or you can call my mother Luella Sebo at 570-421-6824 and she will contact you about scheduling a missionary service.

I am going to try to visit as many of you as possible.   I haven’t been on deputation since the summer of 2009, so we have a lot of catching up to do and I can’t wait to share with you about what God has been doing here in Romania.

Hope to be seeing you soon!

This year because of the generosity of the God’s Missionary Church in Lebanon, PA we were able to make Christmas extra special for so many.  THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR GIVING!  Your gift was such a blessing to so many!

The kids from the orphanage helped me make packs for the church kids here in Talpos and for the gypsy children in Batar.  The orphans all remember too well what it’s like to have so little, so they are so happy to be able to be involved in giving to others.

Where to begin?  It seems like just a short time ago that we started preparing for Christmas and it’s already passed.  Because of the ongoing activities, I didn’t really have much time to keep you updated and share pictures with you, so let me do that now.

I guess I will start with decorating for Christmas.  This is always such a fun time.  We decorated at my house and the orphanage.  The kids always love this and are eager to get started.  Before coming to live at the House of Hope, none of the kids had ever had a Christmas tree or even decorations, so being able to decorate it always so much fun for them.  I think you can tell by the smiles on their faces how much they enjoy themselves.

Every year it’s so much fun to watch the kids get so excited about Christmas and every year I’m reminded how blessed I am to be able to help make Christmas extra special for these kids.  Thank you to all who gave to make this possible.  God bless you!

Dorin has been part of our orphanage family since the beginning and it’s hard to believe that he is now 22 years old.  Dorin has grown up to be a wonderful Christian young man and we are so proud of him.

This year Dorin has moved out of the orphanage into the mission house where I lived the first 5 + years in Romania.  Dorin has been learning to be more responsible and a bit more independent.  God has blessed this young man’s life and it is such a wonderful thing to see him living his life for Him.  He is one of our family and we love him as our own.

La multi Ani Dorin!
