So excited to share with you one more awesome blessing!We visited the orphanage again!Yay!

Well. We finish our current project. Thanks to your generous love, kindness, and tender care, it happened SO fast! Thank you!Thank you!THANK YOU from bottom of our hearts! You answered to the calling take care of orphans, so quick!Wow!

Thanks your precious gifts of love BOM blessed kids with thermoses what will help them greatly stay warm in cold days or when they will have a trouble with heating. In Ukraine it may happen often.Also soap, personal care items, medicine, chalk, lamps and other needed items. Yes, sometimes orphanage can not buy even electric lamps or chalk... Director was greatly impressed and so grateful! 

You won't believe but we were not able to find those thermoses! No where!!! We went to many stores. The only one lady brought all she has found on bazar!Because all people buy lots of, lots of them and send it to the East of Ukraine, to Ukrainian army and hungry people... The lady thought that we are buying thermoses for army too.

Our thanks never will be enough...We thank you heartily.THANK YOU again!!!!

A little update about current project

How wonderful!!! How merciful Lord Jesus!!! Thank you! Thank you very much! Thanks your participation, we could raise 90% of needed funds for the current project! Praise God!!!! Oh, how good the Lord Jesus to these precious kiddies!...

We were able to visit these beloved ones.

Do you see this poor doggie, who tries to keep warm? Well. This is temporary stove where chefs cooked food for so many children... Several times for a day. It seems that stove was still warm.

 We could provide candles and charging very well lamps. Director was so surprised as she didn't expect that we come so late (in darkness) and will help in their need. It was urgent and vital! How we could not come? She greatly and warmly thanked. So, we greatly thank you all! :)

As today Ukrainian people don`t know what happen tomorrow... Because of the war, economic situation, gas issue etc. Many people are greatly concerned and buy those charging lamps, flashlights. So, it is even not easy to find it! We took all a store had.

This how lamp gives a light. But because flash of camera it is impossible to see.

So many local residential places still do not have electric power. :(   The ice was so heavy and so much that broke so so many trees, electric wires etc.

But today orphanage has an electric power! Yay! So, kiddies stay warm thank to mercy and goodness of the Lord Jesus! Many, many of you prayed, donated and shared of the great need! Oh, how we can thank you all? Your generous love and care warmed over hundred kiddies! When they saw BOM team, you would see how they were happy! :) They saw that they are not alone and someone loves them! How wonderful!

Director shared with us. It was so hard when children were afraid go a bathroom in darkness or feed them in dining room. And how they all felt cold. It was terrible! 

We were not able provide everything they need as we could not find it. So, in few days we are gonna come back to the orphanage again.

But we thank God that many of you opened hearts to these sweet kids. If they will not have electric power. The winter only begins and everything can happen. Those  little treasures will not be sitting down in darkness at least :) We are so happy children stay warm today!Praise God!!!

URGENT!!! PLEASE SAVE CHILDREN from COLD!

Dear Friends, with a humble hearts we ask you to save orophaned children from terrible cold and darkness! My hands are trembling to typing...and eyes full with tears.Our hearts are broken and we are greatly concerned about these suffering kids...

Few days we had rain with snow, wind and icing. Many electrical wires are broken in over 600 residential places no electric power in Ukraine. Our oblast mostly was harmed.

We ask you URGENTLY pray for 135 orphaned children, who stayed today without electricity power, water and heat in the orphanage due weather condition! The pipe what keeps warm building has burst. So, children feel cold, sitting in darkness and cookers cook a meal outside in such cold weather...It is awfully!!!

The temperature inside of the buildings is terribly cold! Director asks us to help with candles, thermos make tea that keep children warm, maybe charging flashlight etc. We have few charging flashlights what we have bought for young adults, who under BOM supports. Because our government was going to save electricity and turn off every day for some period. We had to be ready... But thanks God it did not happened and we have electric power in our homes today. But we give those charging flashlights to many more poor souls, who suffer today. And we need to buy it more...

Yesterday I got a call from a young lady. She studies at a training college.

-Alla, I'm in a big trouble. It is a catastrophe...I do not have place where to go...

-What happened?

-College doesn't have light power, heat and water. They told us go home till Monday. They hope maybe they will fix it till Monday-Tuesday.

Many students went homes. But how to be for the orphan, who does not have place where to go???... I can imagine the fear of this young lady... Thanks God we have found a temporary place for this precious girl.

But HOW to be these precious children, who feel cold and sitting in darkness in the evenings and nights today???I believe many of them pray today and ask Jesus to save them from cold!Oh, my!

We are looking for ANYTHING to bless them....Please, pray for these poor children and God will help them in their vital needs. We will update and let you know as soon as possible.

We kindly ask you to help them with ANY amount, if you can... A small gift of love may warm their not only little bodies and save from sickness but warm their precious hearts and show the care and love of Christ. Please, send your gift of love through PayPal thebibleorphanministry@gmail.com Thank you very much! 

And we ask you to share this need. It is vital and urgent! We are going today to the orphanage to bring what we can. But they need much more...Thanks.

Snow, ice and frozen sea in Ukraine

Below are several pictures and video of Ukrainian winter at this year.In the beginning when it`s snowing, everything is very nice and white.Everything is SO beautiful and perfect!!!

When we go somewhere and I see everything just white.It remind me that we have to have so pure and perfect hearts before Lord Jesus.And it reminds me what Bible says about snow. When I see some step or something that make dirty snow, it reminds me about sins.Than more dirtier white snow, then more sins in our hearts.In the beginning when you make first step on snow, you afraid to blemish the beautiful picture.You afraid to break God`s amazing creation.Because everything is just perfect! But when snow is so much dirty, you just walk and do not pay attention, because everywhere is dirty.
Same is in heart.When you do a sin, one, second,.. you tremble before the Lord and ask Him about forgiveness.But when we tired to fight with a sin, you do not have a strength, you feel weak yourself, bitterness, pain, soreness etc.You stop to ask Him about forgiveness and began to live as everyone  in this world,  not paying attention what is in your heart.Because everyone does it...
But it`s so horrible and dangerous!When you have emptiness in your heart, you do not feel joy and happiness, you do not have faith and peace.

But Jesus says in Bible He has the way!
"Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." (Isaiah1:18)

Isn`t amazing!It`s such a joy, a blessing and happiness to have pure heart.When you live and are not afraid of future, you are free and do not have a burden of a sin in your heart.Can be something better than peace, faith and joy in heart?Can be something better when you are free? It`s such a blessing we have Jesus Christ who forgives every our sin and make our hearts white and pure as snow!Isn`t a blessing for all of us? :)

Below are pictures of winter.Can you believe that the sea frozen?For those who do not know that the south of Ukraine washes the Black sea.Frosts were so strong that sea frozen far away.It`s unusual for Ukraine and first time for 30 years!

Is not it  look as on northern pole? :)

  Roads in some regions of Ukraine.        

Next pictures are after storm of Black sea on the next day, in warmest place of Ukraine.To be exactly  in Crimea, Yalta

We would love to thank you for all your prayers about weather in Ukraine!We are so excited that it became warmer.We very hope it was last such cold days we had this winter.One man who lived very close to North in Russia, he has moved to Ukraine recently.He said they had about -40`C and it  was easier to suffer than ukrainian frosts -20`C. We even when have 0`C it`s still cold.It`s because the air is humid but not dry.

Orphans felt cold very much in orphanages during these terrible days.We visited orphans several days ago.They had let us know that have a lessons in basement.There are warmer than in their classes where they have lessons. Also when they wake up in the morning, they do not want to get up because in their bedrooms is so cold.It`s just breaks our hearts.

Several kids are at hospital with high fever.Administration of orphanages are very afraid that can be epidemic of flu.The snow began to melt.Children do not have a footwear change.A one vice-principal shared with us her worries.When older boys cleansed territory of orphanage from snow, later their feet and shoes were wet.They had not other shoes to change and became sick.They have only ONE pair of shoes.But what to do if it is became wet???It`s so heartbreaking and overwhelming...

 Oh, Dear Lord, please, help in needs our dear and beloved ones.Please, help orphans in their biggest need with shoes...

We ask you.Please, pray God will provide shoes for orphans.It`s the BIGGEST need in ALL orphanages.

 I have so many to share with you.I hope to do it very soon.Hugs to all and love. :)

Orphans feel cold

Many of you know that now in Ukraine is very cold. Many people suffer because of it,many are ill and many homeless people died. Without having found warm place from this awful cold. It is terrible. Simply there are no words. Many people leave the houses in search of warm habitation because of impossibility to live in their cold houses.
When we go to orphanages, the defroster(furnace) in the van doesn't work well because of strong frost in the street. And we in the van very much feel cold while we will reach in an orphanage or come back home.The glasswork has cracked in window of our building of Church.ATMs does not work.Accumulators for cars have bought up all and it is impossible to find it to buy.

And there are a lot of things that cause us inconveniences. But our hearts are break and worries these days about orphans.It`s very heartbreaking and so sadly.It crush and breaks hearts...

Even if they sit in buildings and them don't start up on street. They very much feel cold in buildings. Batteries hardly warm.

 Many orphanages have windows in this condition. That to change windows, it costs very expensively therefore orphans are compelled to freeze and be sick.The price is very high and it`s unreal for orphanages to fix it.We pray hard we can help them in this need.We pray for God`s miracle.

Children wear overclothes inside of buildings because it`s coldly very much.

 Many orphanages(who have it, many do not have) use electric heaters that be warmer inside.

Orphanages close cracks in doorways, windows, everywhere where it is possible that to keep warm.

But most heartbreaking and terrible that orphanages have NOT medicaments!

We have talked with vice-principal of an one orphanage.She let us know that they have NOTHING with medicaments.Oh, it`s awful.Orphanage has more than hundred kids, many of them are sick already.But they do not receive treatment.They sent several kids to hospital.Kids were at hospital several days.But hospital deny to treat these kids because they are from orphanage.Kids still sick came back to orphanage.How it can be? Where is justice? These poor kids, about whom God has commanded to care and love are refused by society.It`s even more that terrible!It`s heartbreaking and awful.It just breaks our hearts...

We have bought a little that there was the most necessary, from a cold, cough, nasal drops, belly-aches, etc to help this orphanage.

Yes, we know that is just drop in sea, as we say (drop in the bucket) for a more than hundred kiddies.But administration of orphanage was VERY happy to receive it!They thanked very much!

We ask you to pray hard for orphans who feel cold these days, who are denied by society and do not receive medical treatment.Please, pray God send warmer weather and we will be able to help orphanages with medicaments.  Thank you very much for your prayers! God bless you!
