Mircea – His continuing story

This post has been updated with a picture of Mircea here.

NOTE: Lou Wildman received the following in an email from Alin Apostol. Mircea is the youngest singer and is a member of the Orthodox church, as is his family. He is a fine young man and this will be interesting to the guys.

Lots of stories are unfolding as we move on. I will take time to share them with you so your men and their families and the whole OAMC family will glorify God, for He deserves it greatly.

I was talking to Mircea and his mom the other day. He said the whole tour was awesome! He is speechless. He was very much moved by the fact that you guys acted like we were one big family. He wishes it was not over. During the whole tour he felt like he was part of the family. He did not want to feel like he was from a different church, but that he belongs here.

He shared with his teachers where he had been and what he did – because he had to miss school for an entire week. His French teacher asked for a CD. I gave Mircea two, one for his mom and one for his French professor. I am curious to see what her reactions are.

Mircea is a great kid. He told me whenever we have a rehearsal or something like that, I know what to do: “Just call me and I will show up.”

God is good; He answers prayers! For years Mircea’s grandmother prayed that her grandchildren and her daughter would come to church. She had the high privilege to see Mircea’s brother and girlfriend for the first time attending a program of the SDA church at our concert in Botosani. She had the great honor to see Mircea sing in the big choir, right on the front row. Cristina, Mircea’s mom, also came; and not only that, she followed us on the Internet on our whole tour.

You probably know that Mircea’s father died five years ago of a sudden death. Nobody knew he was sick. It was at his father’s funerals that I first met Mircea and the whole family. Ever since we are close friends.

God works in ways we cannot imagine. It was approximately four weeks before the beginning of our tour that I asked Mircea to join us, and he did not refuse. From then on, he is part of the large OAMC family. Prayers are being answered in unknown ways!! God is good!!

More stories are unfolding...

Thank you for everything!!
