Special Guests

The Children`s House has to harder and harder to find funds for vital things lately. A few days ago, the BOM team brought food, hygiene products and cleaning products to the Children`s Home. Carrots, onions, beets, cabbage, bananas, lemons, laundry soap and many more. All together almost 1000 kg! Wow! This is amazing blessing!!! Praise God!!!

And you know what??? In honor of very few people, the whole orphanage gathered and made a concert! Oh, my!..

The BOM team asked and pleaded that we did not need all this. We just brought what the children need and that's it! All glory, honor and gratitude only to the alive God!!! He is worthy of honor, praise and worship! The administration said. "No no!! You are our special guests so you have to watch. We are very grateful to you and we do not know how to thank you!"

Children dressed on beautiful embroidered blouses and in gratitude sang and danced...

This all reminded me the place of Scripture. 

11. And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.

12. And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.

13. Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.

14. Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,

15. And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:

16. Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.

17. Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

18. And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.

(Acts 14:11-18)

Of course the BOM staff is far from Paul and Barnabas...But this amazing joy and gratitude makes me teary. Tears of joy, humbleness and thanks to God for His mercy and these precious children...Tears of joy for thankful hearts and for the open doors for the Gospel. We often speak about Jesus with staff of the Children`s House. And we thank God for this amazing opportunity!Tears of humility that we are not worthy of so much honor... God, all glory and honor to You, the One and alive God!!!

We are so grateful to those, who blessed and made this possible! Who not only took care of the needs of precious children but brought so much joy and delight to the whole orphanage!Thank you very much for your amazing love and care! May God bless you greatly!!!♥

The Lord feeds the orphans

We are so very excited to share with you all amazing blessing we have!

The director of the Children`s House phoned us and asked for help with the food some time ago. Because the institution does not have enough money for food.

These precious kiddies are so very sweet! They love visitors so much! Their hugs and kisses melt your heart. ♥ Very sad... But many of them are from very poor families, drugs or alcohol addiction... And many of these sweet kids transfer to orphanages when they get age 6 years old. :(

We prayed and asked the Lord to help to feed these sweet children.

We are so happy the Lord provides necessary funds to bless these little souls!

These little children will have food for a long time now! BOM was able to purchase rice, buckwheat, flour, sugar, sunflower oil, peas, pasta and more. It is over ton of food!!! Wow!!!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH to bless little ones! Thanks a lot to care and love them! Many, many thanks to those, who made it possible and we praise God for His goodness and mercy!!!!

God is good all the time!!! :)

Blessings for a Children's Home

One fine day we got a call from the director of the Children`s House. "Could you please help us with firewood this year as in the past you have helped us. And maybe you have a chance to help with food... Please. This year is especially difficult, and not enough money for essentials. Please, I asking you very much, do not leave us and help if you have chance. "

We can not. But our God is able! we replied. We told the director that will pray. We prayed and the Lord sent the money! Praise God!

Soon BOM has done one more huge project! We provided firewoods for a Children's House,where 70 little kids age 3-12 years old will stay warm this winter.

I love how a ray of sunshine appeared when taking pictures. As if God showed his presence and blessing :)

We prayed again, and soon again the Lord answered by sending money for food! Awesome!!!
So we bought more than 1.2 tons of rice, flour, buckwheat, pasta, sugar and more than 50 liters of sunflower oil!

The young adults helped in this one more huge project.

Our van was full and we drove very slowly... As the bottom nearly touched the ground.

When we arrived. The administration could not find the words of gratitude. Director, hugged and kissed us with joy and delight.

We have explained that in this there is no our merit. We are only servants of the Lord and  doing His will. This is all from the Lord, and He takes care of orphans.

"Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. " (Isaiah 49:15)

 Administration warmly thanked all who made it possible :)  Thank you so very much for your kindness, love and care!!!! You are real miracle for so many precious souls here! God is so very good!!!

More firewood for the kiddies!

Pretty excited! The Children's Home has more firewood! Yay! They had a great need and director felt heartsick and worried as they had no money for it.The foresty has started to work and some part of the firewood was delivered.

The foresty has brought more firewood that BOM has paid for.So, today a darling little children stay warm and safe thanks your tender care and generous love!Thank you so very much!!!!

Also we bought a special covering but it seems that not enough and need more...to cover firewood from the rain and snow.The problem that it is hard to find and became in twice expensive! Ohh!

Prices in Ukraine grows up extremely fast! Many items became expensive on %30-50-%100! :(

It becomes colder and frosty! Brr! Not every orphanage has enough firewood...Sad. But we are very happy those little kiddies stay warm!Praise God!!!

You saved little feet from cold!

Thank you!Thank you so VERY MUCH!!!! You saved little loveys from cold! I'm so excited tell you that we delivered over 40 pairs of autumn/winter boots and slippers to Children`s House!

Handsome young men :) All children were so happy to get new warm boots! What a joy!

Beautiful young ladies ♥

And one more great blessing. BOM thanks to your wonderful support was able provide firewood for all heating season to the Children`s House! Praise God! On picture only half of firewood. Now all people rush to change gas system because of gas issue in country and no one knows what to expect. So, lots of, lots of people prepare firewood for winter. That`s why it takes long time for forestry prepare firewood for Children`s House.

We are so glad little souls will stay warm this winter! Yay!

Many,many thanks taking care and love of these little souls! Director was so grateful for help!Thank you to be hands and feet of Jesus!

Special thanks to Kissell family and Susan Booker and Faith Fellowship Church.

Update about firewood for kids

God is SO good! We are so grateful for all donations and we could raise enough funds to bless little kiddies.We are overjoyed and praise Father of fatherless for His goodness and mercy to these little loveys!

We are so happy announce you all that we bought firewood for a coming heating season! Yay!

That was not easy. Director and we all worked hard to find cheap firewood driving from an one forest ranger station to another. Because exchange rate of $ is grows up and down every day now and prices changes and grows up always. Terrible!  The head of one forest ranger station said he can help only with half of needed firewood. Because we need too many and so many of people started buy firewood because no one knows what will happen here this winter due to issue with gas.

Well. We were looking for another forestry who would agree to help Children`s House.  Yes, we found but we would pay in twice more than we have funds. :( So, we were forced come back to a first forestry and kindly ask to help with another part of firewood. And he agreed! Then we were looking for a man, who can deliver so many firewood. And again a trouble. Oh, no! Driving, speaking, looking for,we prayed hard for God`s mercy to the little ones. Finally everything worked well! Praise God!

Forestry is in process of preparing firewood in forest. There work lots of men. So excited that very soon in this storage or covering will be lots of firewood, enough to  stay warm little precious souls.

 Many, many thanks to everyone, who took part in this project and helped in so great need.Thanks a lot for your small and big blessings to precious ones!

P.S. When firewood will be delivered to the Children House. As soon as possible I will share the picture. So delighted! :)

Blessings to little ones and a great need

We visited today little cuties and provided clothes.

Oh, HOW they were happy and delighted! Wish you could see their smiles and joy!
Thank you very much to all who sends clothes!What a great blessing you are for orphaned children!

Look at this precious smile!

Such happy little girl ♥

Am I cute or what? :)

 Kiddies love visitors and so warmly thanked for blessing!

This sweetheart always hugged brother Misha and thanked him.

Then she sit down on his lap hugging and showing her gratefulness.

Not only this sweet little girl but many others wanted hugs and love.

 Little boys started to discuss and one of them say "I love this aunt" and pointed at me. This absolutely melts my heart. And breaks my heart at same time that how many little loveys need attention, warm hugs, sweet word, tender care and just love. How many of them do not have mommies or daddies or they just do not visit them...

Talking with caretakers about orphans life after they leave orphanages. They still remember small Stella, Olga Kozak and many others. Even there are nice caretakers but they cannot replace a loving parents.God created a family in the beginning, so a child should be in a family.

But there is great need in autumn and winter boots for kiddies! So, if you have any opportunity send us used boots but in good condition or send money and we could provide, whatever you think is the best. We will be just happy to bless these little loveys!

And there is bigger and urgent need!

In connection with the problem of the supply of Russian gas to Ukraine, we do not know what to expect this winter. 

"Gas consumption by heat supply companies during the heating season should be cut by some 30 percent in all oblasts, Vice Prime Minister and Regional Development, Construction, Housing and Utilities Economy Minister Volodymyr Hroisman has said".

Thus, all government institutions recondition gas-fired boilers for firewood or coal. Everyone should be ready for winter. Last year we had very cold even in September.

Director of Children`s House said she cannot sleep over month as she does not know where take money for  firewood.So, we are kindly ask you help 80 little kiddies stay warm this winter. Tomorrow we are going to help provide a little firewood for the orphanage. But we need $700 more to help these sweet kiddies stay warm and healthy this heating season. 

On behalf of these orphans we kindly ask you, please if you can to help.Could you help, please, these little feet stay warm?Even a little $5.00 is very helpful!Director was so much happy, when we said that we can help a little. And then she agreed pray with us and asked the Lord to bless, provide remained needed funds and take care of children.You can be the answer of prayer!Just with a little donations, together we can make a big difference! 

The blue widget on the blog will show the raising funds and how much we will need.THANK YOU very much as always!May God bless you!!!
