The Rumbolds moved to East Slovakia in January and we are celebrating the wonder of it all. This couple with five children, left their family, their country, their culture, their friends, their house and Ed’s job to begin the Slovak adventure. The miracle is to see so many of their friends, family and churches commit to support their ministry overseas in such a short period of time.
The local church in Bardejov welcomed them warmly, with typical Eastern Slovak hospitality. Their first Sunday, they experienced their first culture adjustment, attending their first church serves in a very cold and old church. After that, they began to wrestle with the Slovak language (it is considered to be the most difficult language to learn). We pray that they would get the endurance, wisdom and patience in the beginning of their ministry.
