Welcome to the Morari House

The Morari House
Today marks three weeks since arriving in Moldova. We are still in the hunt for the right apartment to help us call Moldova home. In the meantime we have been staying at Nick and Uliana's house. They have offered to have us stay two months until a possible apartment we know of becomes available. That's who Nick and Uliana are. That is the Morari house.

It has been six years since the foundation of the home was laid. Just this past summer they were able to put a roof on it. As the money comes in and availability to work, it slowly becomes closer to being complete.

Nick, Uliana and their kids temporarily live on the bottom floor. We enjoy a nice sized room on the third floor. So, it is already a home, but it is so much more than that. It is a place of refuge, a constant meal being provided, shelter to youth, a place where discipleship and fellowship occur. It is a home that serves God and his kingdom. God's love is always being poured from their home.

After basketball camps and practices, the boys take buses to the house as they know Uliana has cooked them a meal. Imagine feeding a group of teenage boys! Uliana loves it! They greet you with a smile, shake the men's hands and enjoy what she has to offer them. It is evident the love, time and mentorship Nick and Uliana have poured into their lives.

Yesterday they were able to do some work on their home. Little Nick's room was painted and work was done on the second story floor. Five boys showed up and were willing to help out.

It would be a blessing to see the Morari's home completed. They don't live the typical life of a 8-5 job and a monthly income. They have chosen to disciple and pour the gospel into to the youth of Moldova, and their home is one means of doing so.
