Hi everyone,

I'm sorry I have not updated in so long. Things have been crazy and a lot of things have happened here that we never imagined.

I am posting today asking for your prayer. We found out a few weeks ago that my dad has a spinal cord tumor and because of where it is, how large, etc. it is very rare and incredibly serious.

You can find out all the details and follow what is going on by going to:

http://www.carepages.com/ServeCarePage?cpn=AlanHudson&extrefid=tlcinvite

You do have to register (name and email) but it is free and will send you an email each time we update the page.

Needless to say, my family would greatly appreciate your prayer during this time. We know that God has a plan and has a reason but it is still very hard.

Thank you all for praying. I love you guys so very much.

Melissa

ok, well - that's enough for now. Sufice it to say that God has been blessing me more than I can imagine and way more than I deserve. Not everything has been wonderful but He has seen me through it all and continues to teach me time and again that His ways are higher than mine and that He will take care of every step and every detail.

 

Romania post coming. . . . .someday.

I will post about the trip later. . . after I get sleep and am able to think again.

We leave the hotel in Constanta, Romania at 9 tomorrow morning. . .this week has gone by so incredibly fast. God has done so much, not only in the lives here in Romania but in mine as well.

I miss my family and "US friends" tremendously but at the same time there is a part of my heart that I know is always going to stay here - with the people we talked to, the Romania Christians we worked with, the incredible friends I have made on this trip and those that I made last year but have gotten to know so much better this time. . .

I can't wait to be home but I always seem to forget how much I really hate saying good bye.

"Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." Mark 16:15

I'm off to Romania!

Prayers would be very much appreciated.
