"Mama I`m gonna kill you"

People often ask. How children live in orphanages? What they do there? What do they feel? What do they dream of? Why children run away from orphanages? Why such a horrible statistic is that 10% of children commit suicide after leaving orphanages? and many others.

This is not a Christian but a documentary film "Mama I`m gonna kill you", made in one of the orphanages Russia, shows very well the lives of children in the orphanage, their dreams and feelings...

Terrible! But it is heartbreaking truth is what we are seeing in orphanages...
Maybe this film will help you understand, WHY your support is SO important to us, especially prayers. And we apreciate it VERY much.Why BOM team , brings Good News to the poor orphans. Since only Jesus Christ can heal these broken and wounded hearts. As God healed hearts of BOM team, who were former orphans. 
Maybe this film will help you to understand the lives of children in orphanages, their feelings and WHY their hearts are often bitter. Why, need YEARS to heal their children's hearts and distressed precious souls.

(Psalm 27:10) KJV "When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up". 

Some moments reminded me of a past life in orphanages, where I spent many years... This movie is impossible to watch without tears...

Please, help...

We have only to 2 days to raise money to help orphanage with paint! We are sooo thankful to those who already donated! We cherish each $ and cent! We praise the lord for that! But we are so far away from our goal...

Don`t these pictures scare you? Imagine orphans have to live in these places and use these things! More pictures here.

We beg Jesus will help these orphans who live there!Please, will you help us? Time is running out...

Orphans who without parents, some of them never have seen them since their birth.They even can not imagine how it to be in family, feel loving and be darling. They have no hope, no future, no protection, no encouragement.They feel lonely, unwanted and neglectly. And they have to live here. It brings to them more stress and no sense to live.We Church of Christ, we should to care and help orphans! It is our  liability! It is heartbreaking and afflict to see these awful places.

 Please, help us to bring if only a little light to lives of these poor children. We hope you will open your heart and be hands of Jesus Christ. Will you?
Please, share this need with others. We appreciate each your step to help orphans in Ukraine!Thank you!Blessings to you!

Meeting with smallest precious cuties

The Lord Jesus has blessed and gave opportunity to our team visited smallest kids we serve.

This is Children`s Home where are about 60 precious cuties 2-7 years old.They all are mental healthy and  there about 20 kids who can be adopted.When children come to 7 years old they transfer to study and live to an orphanage.Where they meet many troubles, trials, tears, fears, indignity, insults and etc.

How it can be that this darlings and beautiful children meet these terrible things and much much more?

How it can be if a boy or girl crying, their tears cleans by not mommy or daddy but someone else?

Why no one does not read Bible or tell stories about great  hero of Bible before the night?

Why they do not have own doll or car or any other toy?

Why these cuties do not know who is mammy or daddy and do not know how to be in family?

Why they do not know and do not feel kisses and hugs of parents?

Why these small precious kids do not get Birthday gifts, never do not eat cake, sweets,  not blew out candles and do not have friends who can celebrate their special day?

You can not look at them without tears of sorrow...

Many and many same questions you can ask. It is very heavy to answer...It is heavy burden in our hearts about these nice kids. One i know Bible says: "...and the whole world lieth in wickedness."  1 John 5:19(b)

One cute boy told us, when we asked him: "Do you want to be in the heaven with Jesus?" He answered: "Yes and  I would like to meet there mommy and daddy."
Can you imagine it? These little beautiful kids all time think about their parents! Sometimes when we come they ask us: "Did you see my mommy?" "Why she did not come with you?" or you can hear "Are you my mommy?" and twitches your hand or your skirt and looks at your eyes fixedly.
What we can answer to them? What we have to tell them where their parents?Oh, it is so heavy...very very heavy...It crush your heart...

That is why our team comes to visit these abandoned and darling kids.That is why we try to tell them about Who never will leave them, He loves and cares about them.All comfort and piece they can find only in Him. We love them so much! Oh, how they are precious and sweet!

So, what our team did with these little cuties?

When kids saw our Director Misha outside, they started to run toward him and huged like bees of honey.Misha could not move and thought  that he will fall down in a moment. It was soooo funny! Oh, how they are sweet!

Before children came to the hall where we usually have meeting with them, our team was preparing for program.
                                Here team doing our puppet stage.
When children came to the hall and saw our team, they were glad! They knew that the puppet show waiting for them and something special!They were smiling and took their places on chairs to sit down. Some were spanking by hands and said WOW! They were much exciting!
                                         So, here is our puppet show.

                                                         Short video

This time we told them Bible story about Daniel in den. Sisters have chosen kids who helped in story and have played acts of heroes.
I think our king Darius is perfect! :) He is sooo cute! Is not he sweet? And all kids did great job during story!
They like it much!All children did enjoy by this story!
Also kids have played a game where they needed to burst a balloon the way they wanted and will find tortile piece of paper.
Words of Bible verse were written on piece of papers. When children have found all words, they learned Bible verse.
And as all time they all wanted to play this game! Children love balloons! Sometimes it is heavy to choose a child for a game!

Here is short video of this game.It was funny when a girl needed to burst a balloon.But she started to play with it! How is sweet! And how a little boy decided to help her to burst the balloon.They are so funny! :)))

Also children were able to play in game "Pin a tail on the lion".There are were many kids who wanted to play!
                                                 They did real good!

And in the end of the meeting the team gave candies to children.
Oh, how they love sweets!They were glad to get it!

Our dream and wish is to present to them much more, not a one candy! Are they did not deserve much more gifts or sweets?
God wants to give them much more! We are not able and we need your helping... Please, will you bless these precious, darling and beloved kids? Thank you!



As this Children`s Home is in village. We think maybe you will be interest to see pictures. Here are several of them lives in village of Ukraine.

Gifts to orphans

God blessed us and we were able to visit orphans last week! It was last orphanage with graduates which we were going to visit with gifts.Also it is one of the biggest orphanages where we minister.
They had exam in this day, also they got all their documents what they will need.And in this day they all did ride to home. It was very sad to see that only 2 of parents came to take to home their children.
You may ask but they orphans, do they have parents? Most of all, yes. In Ukraine 80% social orphans. What does it mean? A child can have parents but they can be alcoholic, use drugs, or father is in jail and mother lives amoral life or parents do not want to care about their child.Each child has own sad story.Often children do not know where are their parents. Very often in this situation child stay on street or brave it out violence.
So along with alive parents these children are orphans who sometimes never did not see their parents.:(

It was a blessing for us that Misha, Director of our Ministry could to read Bible and told them last words of exhortation! We praise the Lord! It is real blessing because not in every orphanage you can do it before all administration of orphanage! It was a blessing that some teachers could to hear the Gospel and God Word too!
In this orphanage workers are situated and hungry by God word! And we are so blessed to bring the Gospel there!
In the end we presented New Testaments and special gifts to 28 child. Oh, how they were glad! They were so happy and thankful to get this gift!Also workers and teachers were surprised! They said it is posh gift! :)
Thank you very much to those who has blessed these orphans!We are so Big grateful to those who helped us to brought joy to these sweet kids and help them if only little in their needs!Thank you!!!

Several pictures
Director of BOM is reading the Bible and giving his exhortation.
After that children received their documents. Some kids were crying. You may ask why? Because many of them have not good families, they do not want go to home, it is better for them stay and live in orphanage. They afraid future, they do not have some one who will help them.Even they are 15 years old they have to learn to live absolutely alone,  they have to learn to survive  and not waiting any helping from some one in this world. :(







Here are few pictures of buildings where they spend most of their time and some rooms iside.

Usually inside of the room where they sleep are nothing except beds , one table for 8- 15 kids and broken chairs.
If you will see on the picture, the wash stand has only one faucet. They do not have hot water.If they need to wash something, they use cold water and they take shower only one time for a week.
This is the room where get into a place sick children. Until they stay here, they have nothing to play or watch or do. All they do during a day, look through the window. It is heavy and bored to be here until you are sick and has nothing in the room.
Can you imagine yourself in this room when you are sick not for 1-2 days. What if for 2 weeks or a month?What you would be do?

Children spend most of their time inside of the these buildings.Also you will not see swings for children and playground  in this orphanage. It is heavy for children do not have a place where to play.

 These buildings are very and very old.Windows and doors are worn out and have holes. It is big trouble because children are cold in winter time and they get sick often. 

We are upset and it is afflict our hearts to know how live these kids. Along with that these kids are vulnerable and lonely they have not very good facilities of condition to live.
Our dream and prayer is to help them as much as will bless the Lord. Our dream is to rebuild, will make repair inside of the buildings or will change windows and door or will do playground or ...(they have many needs). We must to do something! Please, pray God will do miracle and help us to help orphans...Thank you!

Abondoned children in mental institutions

"The original documentary is set in a small Bulgarian village in an institute called Mogilino,a place where 75 unwanted disabled children are growing up. Many of them cannot walk or talk, not necessarily because they are unable to, but because they have been neglected and have never had the opportunity to learn." -from those who posted this video on YouTube.


This makes me sick to my stomach.I can't stop the tears from coming...It is heartbreaking to know  orphans suffer much.It is heartbreaking to know and see orphans suffer same way in some mental institutions in Ukraine too.

In one mental institution which we visit have die 7-9 kids every year...
 
Yesterday i have found one family was going to adopt a little sweet boy from Eastern Europe. But he has died. It is awful news!Can you imagine it? The someone whom you love and wait to see him/her and you find he has died.
From this blog:
"As I write this, my hands are trembling and tears are streaming down my face and onto the keyboard. I have never felt like this before. I am so terribly sad that my little angel never got a chance to see his mama and papa. He never knew the love of a family. I was not there for him as he struggled to hang on until I could unite him with his forever family. My  poor little angel will never see a beautiful sunrise over the pond. He will never know the joy of a spring morning playing with his brothers and sisters or the incredible happiness that can come from the morning song of a robin."


I was going to post about our last trips to orphanages what we had last days.But i can not...I can not stop to thinking about kids with special needs...I can not stop to think how much they suffer and they are neglecting.I can not stop to think how they lonely.I can not stop to think about their horrible life and not protected.
That is terrible, awful!I can not find words to write my feelings.

I wonder how many orphans with special needs suffer in the world?...

 Some of them never can be adopted... That is why we visit orphans in mental institutions and we are waiting for the opportunity to help them more.We pray and beg Jesus to help these kids and bring to them if only a little light and make their life more bright.

 But even we visit them we can not hug all of them during a trip, we can not play with each of them, even we would like. But most of all we can not give to them full love and everything a child need and can get in a loving family.

Please, watch this video.

 
We would like to give thanks to each one who trying to adopt little angels, take them away from horrible places and give them a new better life!Dear friends thank you so much!
Thank you so much who advocating about little angels to exert all efforts to help them find a family where a child can find a love and help financial.Thank you so much!You do great job!

My tears rolling and rolling down and a big lump is in my  throat when i watch this video again and again how suffer kids...
Thank you to each one who trying to help kids with special needs even in a little step! Thank you so much on behalf of orphans in Ukraine!May the Lord bless you!


We would like to mention here, Christopher, Macie and Delia beautiful kids about whom advocation our very dear friend Sabrina. Also Teri Lynn, adorable girl.About her advocating 15 years old girl Brianna, who has such huge heart to orphans too! I think how long these kids will feel lonely, how long they will suffer, when they will see their dear mammy and daddy? Please, pray about these orphans, they can find a family and pray about orphans in Ukraine.
Please, visit  blogs our friends and help them as much as you able, in any step you can do.Thank you so much!

May 13, 2011

time is running out...please help!

We have only two weeks...We have only two weeks to see orphans who will graduate orphanages...We have only two weeks come and see them, spend time and tell about Jesus.We have only two weeks to worship Jesus Christ in songs together for His Glory.We have only two weeks to give them hope and gladness...

After that they will leave walls of orphanages and start their own separate life with their new "adult life". They turned out 15-16 years old and they have to leave orphanage.Most of all a problem is , they are not ready to start independent life.They are unprepared to live for life outside of the orphanage.They can not even imagine how to live !You have to find food, place where to live, college where to study or job etc.
The graduates are disadvantaged by limited education, inadequate life skills, and little or no family support. They also miss the connections with the orphanage and their friends. Rejection, loneliness and hopelessness leave them vulnerable to peer pressure and destructive behavior.

Many of them wait unemployment, homelessness, abusing drugs, prostitution and a victim of formation of human trade - only a few from results.

Do you know that?

·60% of orphanage “graduates” are unemployed

·50% use drugs and abuse alcohol

·15% fall into prostitution to survive

.10% commit suicide, crime etc...

Some of them do not have a place where to live for many reasons.

The big lump in throat and tears running on our cheeks because we know what they will meet and how hard will be for them.

Only our Lord knows will we meet them again or maybe never...
We beg Jesus with tears in eyes to help these orphans...Please, can you help us in our Special Project? We are so far away from a sum what we need.Please, help us to be Christian not in the words only but in doing also.
Bible says:"If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?" James 2:15-16

Can you please, to help us to show the love Christ to kids in acts?
"My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth."1 John 3:18

Dear Friend, you can be a part of this ministry too! Let`s show together the Love of Christ for His Glory!

We are so thankful to those who already donated to our Special Project!We already have $110! Also we know many of you praying for that.We are thankful also!

Please, please, help us as much as you can able, donation, prayer, spread the word etc...Please, visit the blog our friends who helping us with this project. http://fiveandtwofish.blogspot.com/ 
Thank you!!!

May the Lord bless you in each step you will do!

A great testimony one of thousands former orphans in Ukraine

This is a testimony of our friend who experienced all the horrors of life. Please read and pray for the children in the orphanages who have not heard about Christ yet.


Hi, my name is Katya, I am 32 years old. I was born in Ukraine. My parents were not saved and I have never heard about God from them. My dad drank a lot and beat my mom. He did not bring any money to the house. There were 4 children in the house: 1 boy and 3 girls. Later my mom started to drink too. She did not take care of us. We used to see how our parents argue and fight with each other. Very often we just did not have anything to eat. No new cloth to wear. As a result 3 of us were sent to an orphanage. Later my youngest sister Sveta got there too.

I don’t remember everything what happened in my childhood but I remember that I was scared and I was hungry often. I remember a time when I saw a pool of blood and a woman laying on the bed. Everybody fussed. I was very scared and could not understand what was going on. I was about 3 years old at that time. Later my sister told me that our dad was drunk and he abused a woman. He cut her with a knife. She was laying on the bed bleeding.

Later I found out that my dad cut some other people but they all were left alive by the grace of God. But one of them was not lucky to survive. My dad killed his own brother and he was jailed for 15 years. Practically I did not know my father. He was a stranger to me.
So when I was 6 years old I was sent to the orphanage near Chernobyl. My classmates abused me quite often. So did my teachers. Sometimes the teachers pricked needles under our fingernails. Sometimes they striped us naked. Children were humiliated. Some became unsociable and reserved, some just the opposite became hardened. Nobody stood up for me.
I also remember how one teacher abused a girl. She did not clean her ears the way he wanted(enough to clean) and so he took a knife and started to "clean" her ears with it. He was very cruel. All the children were afraid of him and trembled when they saw him.
And I suffered it all until 11 years old. But once one girl started to pick on me and laugh at me. I was afraid of her because she was stronger than I. But suddenly I became very angry and started to fight with her. And I won. Everybody was really shocked! Nobody expected that.Even I did not expect that. I felt assurance that I can fight back. Later I just fight with everyone who offended me. I was not afraid of other children anymore. I became a “hero”.
I did not want to study because it was not interesting for me. That’s why I did not live in the orphanage but I existed. I felt like a lone wolf, estranged but hardhearted at the same time.

When I came home on holidays there were too many strange people who would smoke and drink together with my mom. And the house was filled with smoke and alcohol. It was dirty and all the stuff was scattered all over. We were really hungry that is why our mom taught us to steal everything and everywhere. I did not like it at all. We used to search for food in garbage cans. We were not squeamish about anything. Sometime we would find fresh goods and became very glad about it. We hide them so our mother did not know. We knew that if our mother would find out that she would take them away.

When my eldest sister Natasha graduated from the orphanage she said that she would drive away all alcoholics and would make order in the house. But later Natasha became one of them. She started to drink. We were shocked and terrified. Nobody could protect us and we were left alone.
Later my brother Slavik graduated from the orphanage and promised to “break up” their meetings. But he also joined them and started to drink too...
When I graduated from the orphanage and came back to home I saw even worse picture. Not only my mother drank and lived amorally but also my eldest brother and sister joined her. I was terrified. I realized that there was nothing for me to do at home. Nobody waited for me and nobody needed me... My mother’s "friend" tried to rape me. I was really scared! It was very painful. Nobody needs me, I was all alone and scared. I did not know where to go, no help from anywhere…

I was looking for another place but I did not have any place to go… One day I met my friend from the orphanage. Luba was trying to find herself after the graduation too. We did not know where we could spend a night. We were hungry and exhausted. Very often we just ate green fruits of the trees. Actually we were ready to eat anything to satisfy our hunger. We were afraid to steal. Honestly I did not like to steal. No job, no home. We were scared!
One day Luba remembered about another friend she had and decided to go and ask her for help. We did not have any other choice and decided to visit her and ask het to help, to live some time there... When we came we saw many young drunk people there. We were invited to try some drugs. We said:" No!" What is going on here? What shall we do? Hundred of questions were in my mind! My friend Luba was very scared and she did not know what to say. I said NO! We would not do it! I realized that we had to run away. We tried to open the door but one young man locked it. I did not know what to do… But there was a balcony. It was a second floor. I realized that we need to jump and run away. I tool Luba’s hand and told her to jump. She was afraid and cried. I understood that if I jumped just myself Luba would die there. I prayed all the time: “God, please help us!” So I pushed Luba and jumped after her. Praise God we did not hurt ourselves! We ran away as fast as we could. It was very late night. We did not know where to go and what to do. How to live? We were scared and trembled. But we were glad that we ran away and did not stay at that horrible place.

We remembered about one dormitory for students and decided to go there and ask to spend a night there. It was quite far. When we came there we asked security to let us in. They let us in but only for a one night.Also we had to leave this place at 6.00AM. First night we did not have any pillows just old mattresses but we were glad because we had a place to sleep. Next several nights we slept even without mattresses just beds with metal net.

Sometime later I found a job. I also found a place where to live. I did not know how. Luba and I were so glad about that even though a room where we lived had no furniture, doors and windows were broken. But someone left old potato. We were so glad about it! We had something to eat. I had to work hard to pay for the rent.All money I had I paid for room where we lived.It was very difficult...

Today I have a family, a husband and 3 children. 2 years ago I came to know Christ. Today I am a Christian and I am happy about it! The Lord changed my life and my thoughts. I am happy to know Jesus Christ as my personal Savior and Lord! When I feel bad I can pray to Him and I know that He listens to me. He takes care of all my needs and helps to solve all my problems. Of course we have problems and worries in this world but it is much easier to live with Christ! He helps in everything and He gives assurance and peace into heart. I remember that during all my childhood and youth I always prayed to God when it was difficult. My words were: “God, please help me, God please save me”. I did not know who God was and I did not know how to pray. I did not know that He could help me if would just ask Him.

Today I teach my children who is God and why should we come to Him. I read the stories from the Bible to them. My children attend a Sunday school. I pray for them and I would like to protect them from the terrible life I went through. Praise God for everything what He had done in my life!
It is very sad that many of my classmates drink. Some of them are in jail. Girls live amoral life. If only someone could tell them about Christ maybe then some of them would change their lives...


Praise the Lord that  Katya is a Christian today and she knows Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Savior who changed her life! In Ukraine nowadays thousands of orphans experience the same stories after the graduation. We cannot change everything in the world. But we have the Lord who can do what we cannot. We ask you to help us in our Special Project for the graduates. We know that we cannot do much for the children... But we ask you to help even in little so we could help them.

Also you can visit a blog our friends who trying to help orphans in Ukraine.There you will find more information.Thank you!

If the Lord touched your heart we ask you to carry out our dream. Look here to help orphans who want to have a better life after graduation. To protect them and help them. Please play that the Lord would perform a miracle! Thank you! May God bless you!

Mammy and daddy where you are?..

  Mammy and daddy where are you?..I`m waiting for you every day. I feel lonely even every day are people around me.I ask them something but they are busy each moment and do not have a time to listen me.Sometime just ignore me.I want to play with you mammy.I want you comb my hair every day and fix it by nice hairpin. I want you will teach me letters, write and read.Here people do not have time doing it for me.I would like much...

I want that you read and tell me story about Jesus.I do not know Who is He...But i heard like older people said He loves children.Why He loves children?Who is He? Daddy, can you tell me more about Him?

 Mammy i want you hug me strong every day and do not let me go.I want to hear like you breath i listen how beating your heart.Because you so fond and lovely.I want to play with your hair.I dream to wear beautiful dress and spin with you until our heads will not whirl and we will not fall down and laugh for a long time. 

 Daddy i would like to catch with you butterflies and run and run and run with you far away. Because here when i start to catch butterflies and go little far away older people start to screaming on me.I do not know why?Is it bad to catch butterfly?They are so beautiful! When people start to scream on me i start to afraid tremble and weeping.Also i feel myself not protected when people cry on me because i do not want to eat food.They just push me away.I do not like it.I do not like much food here.Mammy i want you prepare for me, because i know you will prepare tasty courses you love me and will do it gently.

 Daddy, i do not want go to sleep by myself... I dream like you take my hand and we go to my bedroom together.You kiss me in my cheek or my head and tell me:"I love you Dear". And after you put me in my bed where is very nice and clean bedclothes.I do not have nice bedclothes here.No one do not take my hand and put me in my bed, no one do not kiss and do not hug me.Where you daddy?..

Mammy i dream about you.When i sick i dream how you check my fever, make better my downy  blanket and my soft pillow you start to care about me with so big love concern.Not like here where i live now, people care coldbloodedly and apathetically.Where people do not pay attention on me.And they never ask me how i feel?...

Mammy i dream when i hear from you how you love me and you will call me warm and sweet words.I heard like people called their children "My little Angel".Mammy am i not your little Angel?Where you mammy???

I promise to obey you and do everything you want...Please, i beg you take me away from this place!
I often weeping because i miss you.I miss you both mammy and daddy.I often staying next to window, watching and waiting when you will come and take me to home?I saw when many people come and took children whom i know to home.These people showed their love and care to these children.They told to boys and girls, "you are part our family". I do not know what is a family how it is to be at home. But i think it is something beautiful, something warm, where people love you and you feel yourself protected.I do not know what it is,i only dream to be in this place, to be in family...

No one do not want to play with me...I`m not happy here...
I feel lonely, abandoned, i`m afraid, here is so cold and i`m tremble.But i do not know why i`m tremble because here is so cold or because i`m afraid...I`m weeping often but no one wipes my tears...Even here are many same children like me, even here a lot of older people.But i feel myself so lonely.Sometimes i think i live only one...

I heard soon i will transfer to mental institution.I do not know what it is...I do not know how it look like...I do not know or i will meet you there mammy and daddy?

I noticed when people start to speak about this place.Their face begin to change for upset and look afraid. I begin to think it is place worse than place where i`m now. I do not know why i have to be transfer to this horrible place...May be older people do not love me and do not want i be here...Maybe because i weeping often because i miss you both daddy and mammy?..I do not know...But when i begin to think about this awful place, i begin to afraid more, tremble and my heart cower from fear...

I want to live happy life!Daddy and Mammy can you protect me?Please, take me away from this place where i live until will not be late...Please, save me! I do not want to transfer to this horrible place...I heard children dies there often...Please, will not let me to die there...Mammy and daddy where you?..

The letter from God


The Letter from God it was a topic our meeting with teens in an orphanage on Thursday. Many people love to correspond with different people.Some people love to receive letters but do not love to answer.Some people love receive and answer to them.Letters can be bad and good.God wrote longest letter to us  people. It is Bible.He wants we read it, because it brings to us piece, comfort, encourages.If we do something wrong His Word convicts us in our sins etc.and most of all important we can get salvation reading the Bible and accept Jesus Christ in our heart.
Orphans love to correspond also.We think it would be a great if some one of you would be correspond with any child or all class! You can be a friend any Ukrainian orphan or orphans. It will be good practise for them.Because this way they will learn several things: how to write letters, practise or learn English, feel responsibility etc.Also they will know some one love him/her and pray.You can be a Friend  of an orphan this way?What do you think? :)

We had wonderful time with children! We remember we worried some about these children.Will be they come to these meetings?..Because there are many hard children elder age(14-16).Some children smoke, drink, escape from orphanage. 

Director of orphanage was upset because he did not know what to do, how will interest elder children of something.He loves children and try to do their life better how he can.He asked us to help him.We prayed and worried about it.We let him know we are not God, we can not change many things.We will try to do what we can.
We have some ideas how will interest children.It is can be very simple thing.For example picnic with orphans in forest or beautiful  lake.Or take bicycles and go to beautiful nature.We have a lot of nice places.We do not need to go far away.There is beautiful river, forest, rocks close to this orphanage.Of course if they would go to any  excursion it would be GREAT!
In this time children can will open their hearts, we can be close to them, be their friend, sing songs, have lunch, have nice time etc.We know children love this time much and will remember forever.It can change hearts of orphans.We do not have enough fundraiser for it. We need  to pray much and beg Jesus to help...

When we came to orphanage, smaller children have waked up. When they saw us, they started  jumping and waved their hands, knocking in windows and called us go over to see them in their bedroom.It was funny!
They all asked: "Have you come to us?"Oh, dear it is hard to say to them "no" when you know they wait for you.They upset in the beginning when heard it.
We explained that tomorrow we will have time with them too. Because we have Bible lesson with them each Friday.And they said aloud "YES!" They know this English word.They all so sweet! :)


                                                          It is their bedroom for girls.

So, this Thursday we had more children (32-35) than last time!Praise the Lord! Really we did not expect it! We were so glad! Dear Friends, it is answer on your prayers!
Some elder could not be on meeting, we called everyone, age of 12-16 who wanted to be on meeting.Some children asked us can they be on meeting also?Because they knew we came just to teens, elder children.Is not a blessing when a child want to hear about Jesus Christ?We hope they will continue to come in future also.

Well.In the beginning our meeting we sang several songs.They love to sing and they love guitar!


After that we have spoken about letter of God, Bible.Also we all journey in our life.Our journey start when we were born and will finish in eternity. But it is very important to choose a right direction our journey.Bible helps us in it.God left there rules which help us find and go to right directions.

It is same as road markings help driver find a right direction and get to point he necessary safely.If he will fracture road markings,he will have a trouble or will have an accident.We showed to them road markings.

Also we explain to them when we are going to any far away journey we need to be ready, take clothes and things which we necessary every day and put it in our bag.Same is we need every day our journey of life faith, prayer, obeying of God, forgiveness, read Bible, love etc.We can not live without these things.As driver can go astray without road markings.Same we can go wrongly.We necessary all this things in our life each day.

By the way do you know children in orphanage do not have their own things?They do not have own soap, shampoo, towel, gel shower.About gel shower, they even do not know what it is.Girls do not have deodorant.When they have shower day, they have two bottle of shampoo for all class, one for boys and second for girls.They do not have exchangeable shoes.They have to wear one pair of shoes several years.Same is with clothes.We pray that we can present to them something they will have own.Can you please, to help?..

                         After that we sang again and had fun time.



In the end of our meeting we had sweet time.We gave to children sweet water and different cookies.We did not have  a lot  but children were glad!They swooped to sweets like birds! Some of them did grasp and started to hide cookies in their pockets.We said no, no!Each one have to eat same portion of cookies.We spent only $10 to buy water and cookies.We did not expect will come more children and we worried it will not be enough for all children.But we were wrong! It was enough to give to each one and kids were glad!Of course, they would like more food!

                                                 Here children asked more water.
Children asked us Gospel tracts.There it says how you can be saved.Our dream is present to them children`s Bible.We are not able to buy it.Here(where we live) it cost $5 and more.It is unreal for us.We have many children.Probably some one have opportunity to send children`s Bible on russian or ukrainian language??? They understand two languages.It would be GREAT gift to them! Oh, how they would be happy to get this special gift!
When we were going to home, children told to us goodbye, we noticed a girl who had a doll.She said it is all she has, only one nude and broken doll.She has not a toy or game...There are a lot of same children...

We had wonderful time with children and thankful to the Lord for each child who could hear the Gospel!Praise the lord for each day and moment to be with them!Everyone was happy and we also!Hope they will remember everything they could to hear that they will accept and apply it in their life.
