Knowing God Personally - Romanian translation Completed!

Praise the Lord!
Our dear friend Dragos, whom I met working for Solectron before I was Christian, just completed a translation for Multiplication Ministries "Getting to Know God Personally" packet! 
Dragos is a strong Christian who was an engineering/production manager when we met back in 1999.  He had encouraged me to love, trust, and follow the Lord, and to be very careful about choosing to follow the Word of God and not cults.

Throughout the years we've stayed in touch, and since coming to Thailand it's been a relief knowing friends like him are keeping up to date with everything we are doing and faithfully praying for us. 
A while ago, I believe God put it on my heart to ask several friends who love the Lord, who are bilengual to pray and see if they may be able to translate Multiplication Ministries' Discipleship material into their native tongue. 

Dragos had a passion for doing this and sees the great opportunities for the people of his homeland (Romania) to know the Lord and grow in their faith, and use these types of tools to cultivate relationships in God's churches throughout the land.

I'm really delighted about all of the work he and his pastor have completed.  I whole heartedly believe in the great value of quality-controlled, documented instruction.  Professionally, I've seen how major corporations lose revenue with poor training in manufacturing environments.  In terms of spiritual growth as a Christian, the same could be said.  Culturally one may be more biased towards verbal communication alone, however I strongly disagree with anyone who says that it's not important to have proper documentation.  The scriptures say the people suffer for their lack of knowledge.  Hosea 4:6.    Many mistakes could be made without reinforcing what is intentionally taught in a sermon/class room/home cell.  This is why I strongly believe in the importance of having a disciplehip curriculum clearly documented.  When things are documented they can be also used to train others how to train others. 

Praise the Lord for the sacrifice Dragos has made over the past months.  Please pray that many come to know the Lord personally through the ministry in Romania.
