Brother Tomoiaga was used by the Lord in a mighty way at a crucial time in the history of the SDA Reform Movement in Romania. He served as Secretary of the SDARM Romanian Union while the entire nation was still operating under severely oppressive restrictions, and then as President—an undershepherd of the Lord's flock for multiple terms of office after religious freedom was graciously restored in 1990.
