During the month of May, MLI organized its spring Church Based Leadership Development intensive training for men. Between May 09 – 12 approximately 30 men from five different areas of Romania: Câmpina & Giurgiu – south Romania; Fetes ti – south east Romania; Sibiu & Medias – center; Carpinis – west Romania and from the Western Mountains, came at Alpinis for training. The theme of the Conference was: “A Study in the Book of Job”. The speaker this spring was my younger colleague Mr. Valentin Fat, pastor of Bethany Baptist Church Timisoara, Romania. Once again the time spent together at Alpinis was special; it was a time of sweet fellowship, building relationship, growing in the knowledge of the Lord, spiritual and physical renewal. Thank you Vali for bringing to our attention important subjects like: suffering, worship, values and priorities and how to relate to people in suffering. May the Lord abundantly bless you, your family and your church. Please take a few minutes to read the impressions of some of the participants.
We were blessed by God with a special time of study in the book of Job. Once again God spoke to my heart through His Word present-ed so clear by Pastor Valentin Fat. My soul was refreshed understanding how important is our personal relationship with God and how to re-late correctly to suffering. Thank you MLI and thank you to all who made this special time possible for us. Pastor Florin Botar – Ponor

I was encouraged during this time of fellowship here at Alpinis. I was amazed how God spoke to me through this study in the Book of Job about suffering; I learned how to relate to those who suffer. I was also encouraged by the opportunity to share difficulties from our own lives and ministries. Pastor Robert Raich – Fetesti

This was a week full of God’s grace when we experienced His blessings and the riches of His Word. I thank God for Pastor Vali, for his passion for God’s Word.
