Philip Owen Breagy

Philip Owen Breagy was born on July 7, 2008. I am very sorry I have not blogged about this but we have been so busy that I forgot to blog and article about Philip. He is a strong and healthy baby. He is growing up so fast. I will try to post a picture of Him soon. That is, if I can.

Runner's Camp

On June 16-20,08 I went to Runner's Camp. It is sponsored by North Wake Church. It's not really a camp because you do not sleep there. I don't know why they call it Runner's Camp. It is basically Vacation Bible School except instead of singing, it is track and field. Monday through Thursday you gather at your tents by the color of your flag. Then you have devotion time with your coach. Next, you do an exercize lap around the track. Then you have snack. After that you do events like Hurdles, Shot Put, Discus, Javelin, Long Jump, and High Jump. I like the Long Jump. After that there is Big Group time where all of the age groups gather together to sing songs. Then your parents pick you up. But on Friday, there is a track meet where you compete in running events with your age group. They do it annually.  It was so much fun!  I hope we do it next year!

Baby

I am sorry that I have not written in such a LONG time. But, believe it or not, my mother should have a baby any day now! In our church there are a lot of ladies that are pregnant. I think Mom is the next one on the list! I am so excited to see our new baby boy/girl! Samuel and I would like a boy but everyone (including Mom's midwife) thinks it will be a girl. I will blog an article as soon as the baby is born! Thank you for your patience!

Plymouth

We went to Plymouth for a Faith and Freedom tour with Vision Forum. We spent a week (including Thanksgiving Day) in Plymouth. It was very fun. I hope we do it again!

Coming Soon

A Birthday Boy!

Today is my Dad's birthday! We had mens bible study today and we sang happy birthday to him. I hope that we will have a fun time. He is such a blessing from God. He has taught me a lot of things that he knows. I hope he has many more years living on the earth!

Hope Baptist Church

We go to Hope Baptist Church. It is a family integrated Church. That means that we do not have a huge sanctuary etc. We do not have Sunday school either because we believe that the father is supposed to teach, not Sunday school teachers. We usually gather together and then we sing hymns. After we sing, we have corporate prayer which is where the men of the Church can pray for anything. Then, usually one of the elders preaches. We are going through Romans right now. We have Communion after he is done preaching. We only let baptized believers partake. Also, our tradition is that if you have an unrepentant heart you should not partake because God says that if you do, you eat judgment upon yourself. And I don’t think that any of us want to do that! Then, we sing a closing hymn. Then comes my favorite part, the food! We have a fellowship meal. And then we fellowship. That is what we do at Hope Baptist Church.

Air France

Here is a picture of my atempt to make Air France, the plane that took us on our 8 hour trip from Paris to Washington D.C. ( I will give you more information on it later) out of Play - Doh

Romania - Day 9

Today we are going to a Church in Bacove. We have to drive about 6 – 7 hours. It will probably be very tiring. When we get to Bacove, we are only going to do one sermon because it is going to be a church service. Mr. Horn will do an introduction and then my Dad will deliver the message about Psalm 127. We are currently in the car driving to Bacove. I hope that we get out and stop soon! We will be back in about 2 days... if the Lord wills…

Romania - Day 8

Today we woke up ate had breakfast with the family (by the way, I do not know their last name but I do know their first names), Mr. Stefan and Mrs. Galina. We had to wake up at 7:00 to go to the church so that we could meet up and then head for a town called Medias. We did not travel very long. We ate lunch at a mission house. No body lived in it. It was for missionaries. Then we had a meeting about what we should edit out of our sermons because we only had 1 hour. Mr. Marius asked me to recite Pater Noster in Latin and Genesis 1:1 in Hebrew. He asked Joshua and Stephen Horn to both recite 1st Timothy: 1-4 in Greek. Then church that we were going to was in walking distance so we walked to the church. Oh, all of the speakers did the same talks that I told you about on Tuesday because Mr. Brown said that it would be easier if we just did the same messages that we did in the first place. Also, they had foosball table there! Kinda weird isn’t it? Here is a picture of Mr. Brown preaching at the Church. After we were done, again we all had to split up and go to different houses to sleep in. I am currently in the house that we are going to sleep in. It is very BIG. And the people here are so nice. I think I should be going to bed now (it is 11:30 P.M. here!). May God bless each and every one of you!

Romania - Day 1

We are on our way to Romania. My Dad and I are currently on a plane from Raleigh to Philadelphia for the first leg of our trip out to Romania. We are on the plane with Papa’s friend Mr. Horn and his 2 sons (my good friends) Joshua and Stephen. We are going to Romania to teach the men the importance of uniting the Church and the Family. We are calling men to return to their biblical roles as fathers. We are going with some other men from the church with their sons. We will be gone about 11 days. I hope to update this blog everyday with pictures and articles on our trip. Papa will be giving some messages on Sufficiency of Scripture and Family Worship.


Here are some thoughts I am currently having:
1. I am very excited but I am not totally sure what to expect
2. I hope to be conformed more in the image of Christ by hearing Godly men giving messages
3. I hope to have a better understanding of the Romanian culture
4. I hope to meet some Romanian friends
5. I am apprehensive about eating in a foreign country. I hope they have Chicken Fingers!

I hope that God will bless the men who hear the messages that we will bring to them. Until next time, If the Lord wills …

Romania - Day 2

We did not get very much sleep when we traveled from Pennsylvania to France. Since we were used to American time, and not Paris time, our body’s felt like we were being served breakfast at 1:00 in the morning! When we landed, Papa and Mr. Horn had to go to a business meeting with Metaware. We did not have a car so we had to take a Taxi. It took us over an hour and a half to finally reach our destination! The riding was very bumpy. Now, we are currently on a plane headed for Budapest. We flew over some mountains while we passed and we took some pictures of them. We had to eat McDonald’s two times! I has been so tiring even though we have only been here for a couple of days. Before I started typing this, when we were sill on the plan, Stephen Horn and I both had our drinks dumped on us because they slid off the tray! We were both asleep but we were woken up by the cold, wet feeling of water all over our jeans! We are going to be sleeping at Emanuel University. Here is a picture of it. So far, God has provided for us. We are praying that He will through the rest of our trip!

Romania - Day 3

Today, we went to Holy Trinity Church in Alesd to give messages to the congregation. I got to video tape everybody. First, Mr. horn got up and talked about Deuteronomy 6. It was very good. Then Mr. Brown talked about Homeschooling your chldren and why it is biblical. After he spoke, we had Question & Answer time which is were the congregation askes questions and the people who talked answer them. Then we had a lunch break. We went to the Akim's house to eat lunch. We had soup and bread and we also had cake and cabbage rolls. They have 8 children. Then we had to go back to Holy Trinity Church. There my Dad spoke on psalm 127 and about fathers leading thier homes to honor God. After that, Max spoke on his courtship and why you should not just go out into the world without your fathers consent, and date people. Even if you father says you can, you shouldn't because the bible does not say "go and date people and see which one you like best and then marry the and you will have a successfull marrige. Then we had Question & Answer time. Mr. Brown did one more talk and then we left. When we got home we talked to our families at home. Then we rested until the morning.
