The ladies of our Naomi Center are hard working. They sew, cook, clean, take care of children, perhaps work another job, shop daily for bread and milk and so the list goes on. Like many women their days are filled
with caring for their families. The hours are long and the stress is great. Recently we took the women to the mountains of Romania for some rest and relaxation. It was a chance to forget about daily life and to enjoy themselves. We had lunch sitting on a patio with the majestic mountains in view. Afterwards we spread blankets on the ground underneath the trees of the forest and Dana, the Naomi coordinator, shared a few words about taking time for ourselves. Then we spent the rest of afternoon napping, hiking through the forest, eating snacks, talking, and taking lots of fun pictures. As we boarded the bus for the ride back to the concrete of Bucharest we all agreed it was a Sabbath day filled with no worries and the fellowship of good friends. Everybody needs a break...
