Flash Flood







Thursday July 16, Fred and I had been doing paperwork all day, and decided to take a walk at about 6:30 pm. As we were walk out of our apartment we heard thunder and thought that was strange because it was so sunny outside. We hadn’t walked 5 minutes before it started pouring. We took shelter under an awning and waited for 30 minutes for the storm to pass by. It reminded me of bad thunder storms in Texas when tree limbs break, and the wind blows so hard the rain goes sideways. When it was over we tried to walk to our church building to see if it was flooded. We never made it down the hill it was flooded. These are some pictures I took of the flooded streets in Chisinau. There was no rain forecast!!! Ha, Ha

I love seeing all your slide shows of pictures of your mission events and experiences. I see a lot of hardship in some of the places you work and serve, but I also see so many beautiful places and people. You're doing a good job of capturing the good along with the challenging. Thanks.
