Alex Cupar’s experience as a volunteer

December 1, 2010

One of our volunteers Alex Cupar shares about her experience with Pas cu Pas. Alex is 21 years old and was born in Baia Mare which is a town in northern Romania. She lived there with her family until she finished high school when she moved to Cluj where she is currently in her last year of university studying Psychology.

It’s been a few months since I started volunteering for Pas cu Pas and I love it. It wasn’t something I planned and it wasn’t something I was aiming for this period of my life, but right now I feel I’m doing what I’m supposed to do. I was at a youth meeting and at the end of the service, Raluca, one of the volunteers, announced that the foundation is recruiting more volunteers and she explained a bit about how things are.

Bob’s first week in Romania

October 18, 2010

Hello friends,

I arrived safely last Thursday October 14. So far I have had lots of meetings and Bible studies as well as a nice meeting with Dina and then a young man named Victor (22 and pictured with me across from our office) whom I have known since 2001. He has lived at Prison Fellowship for 10 years. He is a very heroic orphan who is following Christ and is very motivated to help himself and his brother, Paul (17), who gets out of jail in 3 days after being incarcerated for 2 years. Victor’s story is one of God’s grace and redemption and I am compelled to be a small encouragement to him. He is attending university in Social Work while at the same time working full time at the Nokia plant for under $200 a month.

I am encouraged in general and have established a schedule for the next 3 weeks (out of 5) including meetings with Dorin & Monica and a road trip to “Viseu de Sus” on Friday and Saturday with stops in Gherla, Beclean and a side trip to a historic Holocaust city named “Sighet” which was featured in a well known book called “Night” by Elie Wiesel. This will be with Dorin, Sorin and Cioby who are all intent on visiting kids from Camp Discovery.
