Today we travelled from Dobritch, which is on the eastern coast of the country on the Black Sea, all the way over to Bulgaria's capital, Sofia, which is located on the west side of Bulgaria. The trip was probably 8 or 9 hours and I'm telling you this group can have a good time no matter where they are, or how long the journey.

After we checked back into Hotel Central in Sofia we got back on the bus and headed over to New Life Church, which is Pastor Zhorro and Mariana's church here in Sofia where we proceeded to celebrate with an all night worship party!

A big party favorite were our drinking stickers which we have Jean Nelson of New Orleans to thank for. They really helped pass the annointing around! You can see them being sported in probably just about every photo below!

A main project that Global Celebration Ministires has begun is the first Gypsy Community/Cultural Center which we are wanting to build in Kazanluk. The vision is for it to be the first ever center created for the Gypsies of Eastern Europe. Located in the center of Bulgaria it will be a place where Christian Gypsies can hold conferences, retreats, recieve training for skills in the arts, computers, English language, and Bible studies.

At New Life Church tonite Pastor Jerry Frazier of Georgia took up the first offering for this project and we raised one third of the cost of the purchase of the building right there on the spot! Hallelujiah!

Sweet Zhorro and Mariana also performed a deep expression of love for Georgian and Winnie by washing their feet while pastor Angel thanked Georgian and Winnie and told of how his first encounter with Georgian was in the early 90's where he came accross Georgian handing out Bibles.

It was a beautiful night and we have become a close knit family of Jesus enjoyers! The team is now going to spend the next three days enjoying Sofia while myself, my husband, Georgian, Winnie and all of the Mitko Pastors and their wives travel to Istanbul to prepare the road for next years trip.
