Bucharest Christian Academy's Class of 2008

It was about 8 years ago when Rachael (third from the left) and I met. I was in my classroom at Bucharest Christian Academy getting ready for my next classes. Suddenly I heard the shattering of a porcelain sink as it hit the floor. Though I had become accustom to unusual sounds and crashes during my time in Bucharest, I knew something was wrong. Running to the bathroom, there stood Rachael, standing in front of where the sink once was. Her expression communicated clearly her shock and fear. I helped her navigate through the sink shrapnel, checked for slivers on her pant legs, and escorted her back to class. That is how I met Rachael, and on Friday I was witness to her and five others graduated from high school.
It has been a grand experience to be witness to how the Lord has used Rachael and her family in Bucharest. She has seized many opportunities to experience life in Romania and be a light there. As she walked across the stage to receive her diploma there was not shock or fear on her face. She too waits in great anticipation to what the Lord leads her to.
Congrats Rachael and the rest of BCA's Class of 2008. I am proud to you!!!
