Râşnov citadel and Church Fellowship

Saturday, June 27, 2009

Yesterday we took our visitors to the Râşnov citadel. My sister borrowed my camera for the day...so she took the photos :-) She's becoming a great photographer!

Today we also had a church fellowship and afterwards went visiting in the Gypsy village. Enjoy the photos!

Just in case you wonder what I look like...well here I am! This was taken in Râşnov. My sister needed a subject to learn portrait photograph and I was the only one available at the time :-)

Wednesday we went to Bran castle with the four teens from our church. We had a great time!

There are many many spiral staircases, nooks and crannies; it would be a great place to play hide and seek!

June Prayer Letter

Friday, June 5, 2009



I had some problems e-mailing my prayer letter this month (gmail thought it was spam), so I've posted it here for those of you who did not receive it.

June, 2009

“Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.” Psalms 40:5

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

During the month of May I taught about Moses and the children of Israel in Sunday School. We had a lot of fun learning how God delivered the Israelites out if Egypt! The children were amazed at the miracles God did for them. I also taught them that God still works in wonderful ways today and works in the hearts of men. We have about 30 children coming to Sunday School, about 15 of those have been faithful for over one year. Praise the Lord! Please pray for Cristi and Mirela, two cousins that we pick up from another village, that they would continue to grow in the Lord. They have been very faithful and have a great spirit and a willing heart. This Summer Cristi will be helping us build a fence and also a church building. 

The Lord is continuing to bless the printing ministry and we’re excited about what the Lord will do in the future. Please continue to pray for additional printing equipment. Our current equipment works great for books  and small booklets, however, we need a faster and better quality press for tracts, preferably a 2-4 color. There is a great need for color tracts, book covers and booklets in Europe. I have opened a printing fund, any money for the printing ministry please designate as “Adam Zander printing fund.” Please pray that God will provide the funds, or that someone would give us a color press. 

This month four young people from our church in New York will be visiting us. They will be here for four weeks and will help us build our back fence and Lord willing the beginning of our church building. I would like to thank all my faithful supporters, I greatly appreciate your sacrificial giving and prayers! 

Thank you for your prayers and support,
Adam Zander

Work Day

Thursday, June 4, 2009

Today we finished clearing our back property. Lord willing we will build a church building here this Summer/Fall. We had lots of fun and good food! The next step will be building a wood fence around the property (without it people would steal the building material). Please forgive me for the poor quality photos, my sister "borrowed" my camera :-) I took these on my phone.

Unusual Cargo

Wednesday, June 3, 2009




Sometimes you see something crazy and think "I'll never do that"..... 


Last week we were coming home and saw an unusual site, a little white Dacia car carrying a full size refrigerator in the back trunk (I'm not kidding!). We made fun of it and thought it was really funny. Well....guess what we did today? We put a full size refrigerator on the back of our Toyota Landcruiser. There's nothing a Landcruiser can't haul! The creek in front of our house was overflowing from all the rain, so going through half a meter of water just added to the excitement :-)
