Tears of joy

Dear our beloved Friends, our God is awesome and soooo good!It`s just amazing what He is doing here and it brings tears of joy and praise and glory to the Lord Jesus.He is worthy of praise and adoration!!!

We have huge blessing which I would like to share with you all.

We have one orphaned teenager Misha.He accepted Jesus Christ 2 years ago and joined our Church. All this time he prayed and wanted to find his older brother Sergey, whom he didn't see 10 years.

Here is a short testimony.

After orphanage graduation, Sergey couldn't find the brother many years. People humiliated and offended him, because he is not such as all, other... Mocked and sneered on him. He had difficulties with work. The head promised him to pay 1200 hryvnias($150US) per month. He sometimes paid to him 1000 hryvnias($125US), sometimes 400($50), sometimes 100($12.5) and sometimes 10 hryvnias($1.25US) per MONTH!!! How to live?! Problems with dwelling... The loneliness, disappointment, misunderstanding, isn't present friends etc. He started to drink alcohol and smoke with despair.

 As the result, several days ago, Sergey, brother Misha, wanted to commit suicide because of many problems and trials in his life...He thought many times about it before.

Once he climbed up the 9th floor of a building that to bend down and to commit suicide. He didn't see sense in life, it turned out nothing, why so to live and suffer, he thought. And already made a step forward to make this awful decision, but something stopped him.

Days later Sergey accepted Jesus Christ in the heart and understood what it was and Who stopped him from this awful decision.Lord Jesus stopped him by his grace and mercy! What a miracle!

And literally in SEVERAL days Misha and Sergey met!!! Oh, my!After 10 years!But it is not so simple as relative brothers, but as brothers in the Christ!What a GREAT joy!

Misha is in a white T shirt at the left on a picture. Sergey is on the right on the photo and he is the big brother.

Sweet Friends, all our church cried and rejoiced to this huge blessing, listening to this short testimony how our God is a miraculous and wonderful. What can be better when sinners accept Christ Jesus finding in Him forgiveness of sins, salvation, the peace, rest and hope. Hallelujah!!!Praise the Lord!!!

  Now Sergey wants to accept a baptism in our Church which shall take place this Saturday August 11, if the Lord allows. Also some orphaned teenagers wish to be baptized and join our local Bible Baptist Church Charity. I cannot describe the joy we have on seeing this!

Our dear friends, it is simply amazing and God's love and mercy is so great and so good. Tears, tears of joy, run on my cheeks and such perfect joy fills my heart. Prayers are capable to work wonders. We are so glad for our brother Misha how the Lord miraculously responded to his many prayers. He is sooo happy and so excited for his brother!

 Also our dear friend and the brother in the Christ Vova, also found his mother, whom he did not see many years. Vova is very happy!What an awesome blessing for our brother!!!

We would be so thankful, if you will pray for the forthcoming baptism in our Church which shall take place in 4 days that the Lord send good weather and everything arranged. Also for our dear souls, which wish to execute a  commandment through a water baptism.We are so excited!
 "The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:" (1 Peter 3:21)KJV

Also please, pray for our pastor Misha, for his health. He has now troubles with health and suffers a lot. If he will not be better, we should postpone a baptism and all events that makes inconveniences and some problems and it decelerates all ministries.Many thanks, sweet Friends!

Isn`t a lot whether that?

Recently I looked for something I needed in our blog and was amazed.What ?! I can not believe! That is amazing how God works and blesses! I was so excited and decided to share with you about great blessings!Hope it will bring you joy and blessing too! :)

God was so good to us in 2011 that even I can not find words to describe How He is good, merciful, amazing and wonderful Lord Jesus!

If turning back a year ago, it was such interesting year as in personal our lives and  in ministry also.It was the year of many full different things happened with us.It was the year of trials and sorrows, disappointments, tears of heartbreaking moments, weakness, sicknesses, worries,lack of money,  grief, death of beloved ones who we will meet in the Heaven some day and much more...

But in same time it was year such blessed, multifarious and wonderful!It was year full of amazing and huge blessings,many  tears of happiness, praises of Lord Jesus, many hot prayers of glorify our Lord, so many wonderful and blessed moments, many speechless moments because of amazing God`s love!

The year brought to us new wonderful and such dear our forever friends, such warm and excited visits of our precious kids and so many such wonderful blessings!God`s love is astonish, goodness and graceful!
I`m amazed and praise the Lord!How our Lord generous and rich! This year was awesome!

So a lot of nice and astonished blessings happened that I can write here a looooong list.But I would love to share with several of them, to encourage you.Hope it will bring you joy, inflame your heart and bring blessing:)

• Helped with medical care.Bought a new wheelchair to orphan Annah and medical pills to little orphaned girl too.
• Gifts to graduates of orphanages were bought to 81 orphans.
• Bought a paint to all orphanage and helped to improving a playground and orphanage.And helped to improve sport stadium by our physical help.

• Gave to kids sweets, chocolate candies, bananas, ice cream, oranges, marsh-mallow.On Bible lessons fed kids by honey and ukrainian borsch, probably something else, I do not remember exactly.
• Helped by different chemical stuff, soap, washing powder, cleanse things, diapers etc.
• Visited orphans at hospital and brought food to them.
• More than 100 times visited orphans with special programs, Bible lessons and meeting with teens.
• A little girl found a home in loving family a year ago.It brings tears each time when I watch this video.

  May be something else, honestly can not remember exactly.

Wow! Is not a lot whether that?How it can be with so little support?How it could happened? Isn`t God`s love astonishing and generous?
It remind me a very famous Bible story with five barley loaves and two fishes.(John 6:9-14)
"There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. 
Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world."
 Yes, we were concerned and worried where and how will find finances to help many orphans here? How help many kids in their needs? But what we could do?We could only beg and plead Jesus Christ to bless and provide needs of poor and forgotten orphans.

Oh, yes!We had so many times when we did not have finances to visit our beloved kids.Oh, how many times we could not help them in their needs.We prayed, our faith was so small and weak but God blessed by His mercy!What a surprise was for us so many times to see how our Saviour provided and sent what we needed.We were sooo happy and blessed!

And so many times we could see hand of Jesus in personal lives too!
Honestly, I do not like to speak about it.Lord knows everything.I can not account how many times we hungry went to our beds for rest at nights, how many times we did not have breakfast.How many times days or even weeks we had only potatoes on our tables, that was all.Some members of team ate only eggs, cucumbers every day and nothing more.Because could not buy.How many times we worried how to pay utilities for places where we live.How many times we thought where take finances for medicine when we were sick, how many times we worried where take finances and buy a clothes or shoes what were need for a member of team.And much more and more and more...I believe many of you came through the same trials and even more heavier.

We are not sorry about it.Did it was heavy?Of, course.But that is our choice to minister Lord Jesus and bring hope and joy to those who have more trials and worries, fell lonely and unwanted.That is our choice to visit orphans in their afflictions.It`s our choice to go to them what would not happen in our lives or families.

With beats of heart and joy and tears in eyes I`m typing and crying.Crying because of Love of Jesus.Some one will think Isn`t crazy?Hmmm!Probably. But Apostol Paul says:"We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised". (1Corinthians 4:10)

One of my favourite verses:"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."(Romans 8:35-39)

We absolutely are not sorry not little bit! No!Instead of that we are very happy! Really! It`s even fun and interesting to have adventures! Because God provided and cared sooo many times.Oh, how many times God sent just in time and huge blessings!We were shocked and amazed!!!We are not sorry because God taught us, He is faithful to His words even we are not faithful, He cares about His children and servants, even no one know but He knows.He bless, He cares, He is our strength, our glory, He is our tower where we can hide in heavy times, He is Heavenly Father, Saviour, Friend, good Shepherd, He is our breath, life.He is everything!!!

 When God blessed so fast and huge that we could speak nothing. Only praise the Lord and lift up our hands in prayer and glorify our Heavenly Father!!!It overwhelmed our hearts and we did stand on knees in prayer of glory.

With tears of happiness, grateful, joy, thrilled and overwhelmed heart I`m typing.It`s tears of happiness because of your love, dear friends!Yes!The reason why I decided to update this blog to tell you thanks!Big thanks for your faithful support, prayers, encouragements and love!

Some of you follow our blog from the beginning, some later, some joined recently.But it is such blessing to see each follower.And we thankful to each of you!It is such a blessing to see someone new!

Dear sweet and beloved friends, donors, followers we are grateful to you so much for so many things you has done for us.Thank you for each little and big step to help us!Some of you even created a blogs to raise funds!Wow! Many of you shared about ministry here, many of you prayed and pray now we believe, many of you donated to help kids, helped in our special projects and even supported team.Thankfully your prayers we continue ministry and thankfully your prayers, God gave us peace in our hearts and strengthened  faith when we gave up and it was so small. My feeling swimming in my head and it grasped my breath, because abound of thing you has done for us.We are sure all blessings we would not have without all of you!

If I had a time I would tell you so many amazing stories and blessings how God provided.We will be thankful to you forever!We pray for you daily!I just think how we can thank you!If we could, we would give you our sincerely hugs.But we are far away.We love you and admire by you!We praise the Lord!You are alive church who love Christ with all your hearts and you are feet and hand of Jesus who are such amazing blessing for all of us here!We are sooo happy to have you!!!
God`s love is astonished and so amazed!

How we got in ABC News

Many of you probably think how this very small volunteer mission team got in ABC News?How it could happen?When? How these Ukrainians could get in world news?and many similar questions...

We could not say before because it was private and we did not know the end of these all things. :)

Maybe it will be interesting for some one and will bring encouragement how God works in Christians lives. Here is our testimony, incredible blessing, adventure,worries and much more... 

As many of you know, we do not have enough support and we do what we can to help ukrainian orphans to bring joy and hope to these precious and sweet kids.
We pray, and our dear friends, followers, donors and everyone who knows about it.We fasted so many times also...It is very heavy to describe by words what we feel when we see and feel so helpless. It breaks our hearts. We cried many times and pleaded the Lord to help.

One day(on February 2011) God has spoken to my heart through His word very clearly (Isaiah 66:9-14)
 I will say beforehand Jerusalem it`s BOM.

 "Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God.
 Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her: 
That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory. 
For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees. 
As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. 
And when ye see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the LORD shall be known toward his servants, and his indignation toward his enemies."

I was shocked and could not believe and began to cry.I weeped and thanked God.I was overwhelmed and amazed.I even do not know how to say right.I was so much impressed!I thanked God.But had many questions.When God? When you will do it?When it come true?

I think many of you will agree, most of all it`s heavy to wait and you do not know end of that.We did not know when it will happen...

Well.About in a WEEK we received e-mail from Abbie Boudreau who was interested in our ministry, especially about kids with down syndrome! Wow!
In the beginning we thought some one joke with us.Correspondent from Americaaaaaa?What?!Is`t joke? Really! We did not know who is she.We do not have ABC News in Ukraine and how we could know her?  :) We did not believe for a long time.

We decided to search and find information about her on internet.We were shocked! She is real person from ABC News!Oh my goodness! My knees and hands began to tremble.I could not sleep all night.In the morning when I waked up my hands were still trembling. Hundreds questions swirled in my head.God!What that is? What do you want we do?Is that from You? What we should to do?and many similar questions...It scared me VERY much!

After many prayers we very carefully answered on questions, etc. during our correspondence.Really we did not want to be involved in it.We did not want to have troubles, stresses, many nerves, nights when you can not sleep because of thinking in your mind, we did not want that will bring any trouble for our ministry or to any person.We did not want to receive crazy calls or e-mails with threatens etc. We were scared much.And it`s because from famous television in US.

Honestly I`m a weak person who afraid to do or begin many things even it is something good..I know that is not right.I should to trust to the Lord.I`m very thankful to the Lord He is my Heavenly Father who keep my hand and never leave me lonely.He is next to me and any one person can not comfort you when you afraid something, only He alive God can give His perfect peace in  heart and calm.

We prayed very much and asked the Lord to help us, protect us.We beged God if it will bring any trouble that He will stop it.

But in same time God gave us peace in hearts and calm.And we began to think what if it`is answer to our prayers?What if God has His plans and He wants to make it real?What if He wants to do something special in lives of kids with special needs? What if is God`s will and we reject it? and many "what if" we had in our heads.

In same time it was fun to have new adventure and experiense! :)

Well.After some time Abbie and her producer Sarah Netter has let us know, they would like come to Ukraine.What?! Are you serious???
While they both were in Ukraine we had a wonderful time!They both are such nice, kind and very sweet ladies!Children loved them and they excited very much to see foreign people.We had such AMAZING fellowship!We enjoyed and praised the Lord for that!
 Some kids still ask about them.Why they do not come to us?Isn`t sweet?

Here are several pictures

A little lunch or picnic after long traveling to orphanage and mental institution.Abbie with tears in eyes after seeing orphans in a mental institution.They both are such kind ladies, as many of you we believe!

My horrible interview

Saying goodbye to friends 

And the rest of story you already know. :)

 A one more detail.Many of you probably watched ABC news 26/12 and noticed that we were not on television there. :) We believe Abbie and Sarah did a great job!They do their work very well and just perfect!
When we watched it, honestly we were upset a little bit.But in same time God gave us peace in our hearts.Next day we have found out a reason of  that. Dear friends, I want to say to you honestly.We absolutely are NOT upset! We believe with all our hearts it was God`s will!We were so much excited and it brought so much joy to our hearts!
But there is a link to our website and video what we believe many of you already watched.If no, please, follow to this link.
But we were so much happy to see a beautiful story about adoption a small cute girl from Ukraine.I think many of you will agree, the story is even more than beautiful!!!

I thought yesterday also why it happened.Also about television and these all things.I opened involuntary a Bible and it opened self at this place.Hmm!I decided just to read and continue to do what I wanted before.But when I read tears began to run on my cheeks.God told me in His word: "For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD:but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word." (Isaiah 66:2)
I was amazed and overwhelmed!I thanked and praised the Lord!
It brought so much joy to my heart and God gave me more peace in my heart than I had before!It is amazing!

Also these last days we had huge traffic on blog and website!We were excited to see it and amazed!It was something!What a blessing from the Lord!We do believe it was miracle from the Lord!

I`m so sorry if it took you some time to read.But I would love to add some details in this incredible adventure and wonderful blessing from the Lord.More details why we believe it is from the Lord.

      1. A while time ago God opened our eyes about kids with special needs, especially about kids with Down syndrome.We were blown away to hear all information.At same time God gave a vision how minister to these kids.We understood God wants we do something for them!

     2. God had lead us to a conference more than year ago where we got HUGE knowledges about these kids!We were shocked and so thankful to the Lord!We were very much impressed and struck because we knew nothing about them, only little bit!

     3.  After conference we decided to change a program for these kids, teach them more deeply etc.And God bless each journey much, even more than we expect each time!

      4. An one little girl with D.S. has found a family in America through our ministry.It was the first adopting in this mental institution(where we minister) during whole their life!We hope more children with D.S. will find families.More read here and watch video here.
      5. We began Bible lessons more than a year ago in orphanage where are children(only girls) with special needs.God bless much!We are so exciting!We had before only program there.

     6.After many prayers we began Bible lessons to kids(only boys) with special needs in one more orphanage too.There we had only program too.Is not amazing miracle?!

       7. God blessed very much our journeys to orphanages to kids with special needs, when Abbie and Sarah from ABC News have been here.

       8.We have piece in our hearts about it.

      9.God blessed us in doing website.We saw many blessings during this time.Abbie found us through the website.

     10. We made a lot of videos in different orphanages that will edit a special video and will place it on internet, social network  etc. and leave a link of our website.Abbie and Sarah did same video what we did, even in same some orphanages and even same ideas and same places!Wow!Each time We were speechless and amazed!We could not believe by our eyes!We only did not have a time to make like a one short film-video about 5-8 minutes and place it on the internet. Is not God`s way?
But it was not on television news as I said above.But that is ok for us. :)

      11.Well the next it will seem crazy but truth. :) I all time joked and told to the team.I would like do everything I can that all world will know about orphans here.I did mean many countries. I will not surprise, if you will think crazy girl. :) Really as every person.What I can do???NOTHING!I`m dust of earth and sinner of sinners!!!And I do crazy things sometimes...
Did I know it can be real?ABSOLUTELY NOT! I even did not think about it. I only joked and did not think it can be sooo real! I even did not pray about that.It would be crazy to pray about it! I only laughed!
All glory and praise belong only to ALIVE God!

     12.But most of all important for us, God told us in the Bible about it in middle of February.We only did not know what it is?In a week after God told us it, we received an e-mail from correspondent of ABC NEWs as I said above.

 Well I think of these points are enough to understand is it God`s will.

So, for today we do not know what will happen in future.Will it bring any blessings to our sweet precious kids?We do not know the end of these all things.Probably it`s only beginning?or probably it is the end?You never know.We do know NOTHING. But one thing we have and know.We have absolutely perfect God`s peace in our hearts.And we are amazed by it!We are thankful to the Lord for this thing for most of all!

We thank ABC News and especially to those who was involved in this project, to help orphaned kids in Ukraine to have a better future.

We thank God for everything He already has done!It was incredible and awesome!God showed and  taught us what He can do!God is sooo good!!!

And we thankful for your prayers.It`s would not be happened without all of you!
 Please, will you pray with us about God`s will and that He will do what is in His plans?Thank you!

 One more verses what God told to my heart yesterday.Hope it will bring you blessing too. :)

 "He doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment. Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name. He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen." (Deuteronomy 10:18; 20-21) KJV

 Director of BOM, brother Misha would love to share with you a Bible verse too and to be part of this ministry.

"Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy."(Proverbs 31:8-9)

 Thank you, that you found a time to read it!Blessings! :)

 

Special day

Yesterday was a special day in our ministry and my personal life too. :)
Because a year ago we have been on conference in Kiev (capital of Ukraine), where were speaking about children with Down Syndrome. This conference has changed our ministry and our personal lives too forever!
I`m exciting much about that! I just am awe-struck by God's amazing timing!I am just awe how our Lord Jesus great, wonderful and amazing God!Only He is admirable alive God!

We received  a HUGE information about children with DS! We are so thankful to Meredith, who a year ago invited us there!

Meredith(on the left), me and Shelly(friend of Meredith).



Today we minister more to children with special needs.Yes, we need to learn sooo MANY things yet!
But we are happy much for what God has made a year ago!It has changed our minds and hearts.God has opened our eyes on sooo MANY things! We just HUGE grateful Him for that!And it is amazing!

If you are interested. Here you read what God made in my personal life.And here what God has made an amazing thing in our ministry!Thank you!God`s blessings to you!

Huge blessing and amazing time with orphans!

Well.Here i`m going to share with you the next blessing we had yesterday.As i told you before, we were going to visit orphans in summer camp.
 Yes, we has done it!We had such blessed journey! Thank you each one for prayers!It is something incredible what God has done yesterday and how He has blessed!

So, what we have done in camp with orphans?
We brought to them the Gospel. The good message, that says how God loves, cares about them and wants to save from the hell and give eternal life in the Heaven.

 

                       During the program we had puppet show for smallest kids.

                             We sang several songs with children.They liked them!

We had object lesson.We have kept a balloon above fire. It did not burst, because the water inside of the balloon kept from it.We explained to kids.The same way water is like the faith in Jesus Christ, fire is like fire in the hell. How water inside helps to keep balloon from burst and burn.Same  way is our faith in Jesus Christ saves us from the fire in hell.

After that we told a Bible story to children about 3 men whom God saved from  burning fiery furnace.Daniel 3

      Kids loved this story and some of them helped us!They enjoying of it!

Also we explained to children that God can and wants to save them from fiery furnace, it is like hell. And He can save us from different troubles in our life(they have a lot), what sometimes are same like fire for us. God can save if we will be faithful to Him like these 3 men and etc.

During the program we had fun time also and we have played games with them.They all wanted to play!
They were so excited by it!We had wonderful fun time with children!

                                              Game with balloon

Here is the game to learn a Bible verse. The 2 teams needed take off paper bricks from sheets.The team who first will open a Bible verse, do victory.

But most of all we all were so amazed and shocked when Director of BOM and pastor Misha did invitation, about 25 orphans asked Jesus Christ to saved them! Oh my goodness we did not expect it! It is amazing and great!!! Our Lord such good, mercy and mighty God! We are overwhelmed and shocked! Do not have words...
All Heavens was moved and Angels rejoiced and sang and praised the Lord in this time! What a HUGE blessing we have! We are sooooooooooo glad!

"I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance." Luke 15:7

Sasha prayed with boys and counseled them how to live Christian life.

                                      Oksana prayed with girls

When we needed to go,children did not want to leave this place and wanted to fellowship with us.
 But we were hurried because we needed go to Annya, bring a wheelchair to her and see orphans in this orphanage.This special orphanage for girls is far away a little bit and we needed to go, because staff work before 5.00 pm and we did not have the time to be more with kids here.

We told goodbye many times to kids but they were still here.Sasha and Misha gave last instructions to orphans.

Untill we had fellowship with kids, the other were writing words on our van.The van was dirty because of the rain in the morning and dust on roads. On the right side of the door it says "God loves you". On the left side "God loves people". I think it is good testimony for drivers behind us on the roads. :)

                      Pastor Misha gave Gospel tracts to children.

                                                    Reading the Gospel tracts

Children asked us books or any Christian literature to them.We are not able help them with it. It would be great blessing if someone will helps us with Christian literature, little books, Bibles to kids! Please, can you help us with it? Is not it a blessing orphans want to know more about Jesus? We pray God will provide this need to orphans too.

This is what love orphans, just hugs, love and attention. How is sweet!They do not have that someone do it for them. :(

                                        Kids still did not want to leave us. :)

This time we have learned more their needs and it is more heartbreaking and sad... As i told you before they often feel bored here . They suffer of that, because children do not have any toys, games, nothing to play.They do not know often what to do...
Also children undernourished often. Even they eat here 4 times a day, they still hungry often.Probably it is a little food they get here. Fruits they almost do not eat.If they get a banana, it is half of that or  even a third part.They do not have hot water to wash clothes or take shower.

Their clothes is worn out much, shoes broken or too big size. They do not have change clothes. They are lonely, suffer and afflicted. All this is horrible and heartbreaking!.. :(((

Because of that children run away from the camp.If children run away, the police catch them sometimes in other cities of Ukraine far away, even in Russia. Children like to "travel".
Often children bring any disease, they hungry, dirty, they steal different things because of hungry, clothes, shoes and etc. and can get in any trouble.They street kids in this time.
So, next time we want to help if only a little to bring sport games, different things to make them busy, will save them from troubles and bring a joy and blessing from the Lord. Also bring to them fruits, bananas, oranges and maybe something more.But WE NEED YOUR HELP! PLEASE! We can provide all these needs only with your helping! Please, can you help these afflicting and suffering orphans? It would be good if someone will help with clothes and shoes to send them.These kids will be in this camp to the end of summer.

Ok. It is not the end yet!We have one more blessing! Coming back  from special orphanage to girls where we brought huge blessing to Annya(yesterday), we visited one sister in Christ. In this time Lyuba(member of BOM team) began to witness to a grandmother on the street. Pastor Misha finished it and when he gave the invitation, she asked Jesus Christ to save her from the hell.

Grandmother asked us to help her with a Christian literature to read  and learn more about God! WOW! What a blessing!Praise the Lord!

So, we had amazing and great day yesterday! It is  incredible how  God has blessed us! We are so rejoicing these blessings, wheelchair to Annya, amazing and wonderful time with orphans in camp, about 25 saved orphans and one more soul-grandmother! It is fantastic, great and wonderful!

"Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth." Luke 15:10

Testimony of former orphan

This is the testimony an former orphan who passed through  many troubles and worries in her life before the Lord sent her a loving family.Here she is talking about town Zhitomir where she was growing and orphanage where she was.We are so happy to know she has a family! Praise the Lord for His mercy to this beautiful girl who has the family today where she knows as to being loving and be protected.

All what she says many orphans pass through the same or similar situations.Each orphan has their own story...

We are thinking about orphans who still are in orphanages, who still do not know how to be in family.How to be loving, be understanding, protected etc.We are thinking about orphans who soon will leave orphanages and have to pass through many troubles that to survive.

The half of our BOM team are former orphans(Misha,Oksana, Alla). We know what orphans will pass through that to learn something, we know how they feel, many fears, worries, lonely, homeless, troubles etc.Misha, director of BOM has been in jail twice after orphanage.No one did not help him, no one did not visit him until he was in jail 7 years.After orphanage he needed to learn to survive.He did not know how to do right and what to do right.He did not know about the Lord, Who could to help him, if he would ask Him.No one did not tell him a good word, only humiliation he felt, no one did not teach him how to live, how to find friends and many, many another things.

That is why our BOM team tell and teach orphans about Jesus Christ, Who can save and help in many problems, give piece and comfort in heart.Who can help pass through many trials in their life.

Yesterday we have been in orphanage and we have learned the 3 of 9 graduates do not have a place where to live after orphanage!Can you imagine it? Can you imagine that after few weeks you will be on street alone and homeless?...

Teachers of this orphanage worries about them too.They say: "It would be a great if someone would to help them after graduation!"

Another orphan who graduated a year ago from same orphanage.He was trying to enter to any school or college, no one did not help him.Today he is alcoholic and lives anywhere...He is only 16-17 years old!

A month ago we have learned an one another former orphan who graduated another orphanage what we visit regularly, he got to jail already.It is even a smaller than a year gone after his graduation!
It tears our hearts and blow our minds!It is hearbreaking to hear and know it, especially when you know these kids...Oh my God, please help these kids!It is terrible!

That is why our dream is to have a "home" for graduated orphans, help and teach them, protect from many trials what we passed through.Our desire is to help kids, as much as  we can...

Please, watch this amazing testimony and pray about orphans.Please, please, share and help us to help orphans to have a better life...
Thank you!

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!

A testimony of God`s grace

Dear fellows in Christ,

    My name is Yaroslav. I was born in a non-Christian family. When I was about 10 years old my parents got divorced. I did not know much about God, actually very little. My mom found another man and started to drink alcohol with him. My childhood was pretty tough. Because of drinking my mom did not have much money and I used to be hungry quite often. 

   But I had a friend Vasya who lived in a Christian family. They were my neighbors and they helped me with food and cloth. So time passed and after I graduated from high-school I wanted to continue my study in a local technical university but I didn’t have money. I didn’t know what to do. Mom still used to drink. No money. No job. No future. Life seemed so miserable to me, so empty.

   But one day my friend Vasya invited me to come to a youth meeting in his church. I agreed. It was a group of Christian young people. I really enjoyed it. They were so friendly and happy. They were different than other people I knew. We sang songs and played games. I liked to fellowship with them. They also told about Jesus Christ and how everyone can become a Christian. But I was afraid. Something restrained me.

    

     And then one day Vasya invited me to listen to an American evangelist Don Betts. It was very interesting to hear an American speaking so I went. I remember I listened very carefully while he was talking about Jesus’ life. And then he asked who would like to accept Jesus as a personal Savior. I realized that I needed to do that. So I came forward and prayed to God to forgive my sins and asked Jesus to come into my heart. I was very happy. It happened on April, 22 of 1999. I know God works in different ways, but this is the way He worked with me. I’m glad He did. I know when I die I go to heaven because I’m a God’s child since Jesus came into my heart! Amen!

    God has been very good to me. The same year when I got saved I won scholarship and entered the Technological University for free which I graduated from in 2004. I was so excited about the Lord that I also decided to find a Bible school to learn more about the Word of God. There was one school which allowed evening classes so I entered it. During the time of study we passed Bible tracts, preached Jesus and helped orphans. God blessed me with good friends. One of them was Michael Glazov. We studied together and used to help each other in the time of need. We prayed for each other and served the Lord together. It was such a blessing! 

     So I graduated from Beacon Bible College in 2003. A year later I was invited to the US to witness about God’s work in Ukraine. And the Lord really blessed my trip. I experienced an American culture and learned the way the ministry is organized in American churches and missions. When I returned to Ukraine the Lord had something else for me. God taught me a good lesson. The life in America was quite different than in Ukraine. I thought I could do everything by myself but I was wrong. I had to learn to trust the Lord no matter whether I’m in America or Ukraine. I realized that I had to humble myself before Him and wait until His time. I knew that His will for me was to wait until He shows a right place for me in the ministry. I moved to Kiev and got a job as a software engineer but at the same time I was trying to serve the Lord. I passed out the tracts, visited orphanages and hospitals, participated at the tent meetings and witnessed about Jesus Christ to other people. Many got saved! Praise the Lord!

     Sometime later the Lord led me to join  Bible Orphan Ministry which was found by Michael Glazov – he is also the pastor of Bible Baptist Church “Charity” in Zhitomir. I have known Michael for 12 years and I can say that he is a good pastor and a great friend. I am glad that we can continue to serve the Lord together just as we did when we were in College. I am glad I am a part of the team of people who love the Lord and who want to serve Him and I know that we can serve the Lord better together not just one by one.

      As I do not have any regular support at this time I have to work at a secular job to support myself. Of course I am thankful that God gave me this job. I know I can work and serve the Lord at the same time. But I cannot do much because the work takes a lot of my time. And I was thinking to myself the other day: “ok, Lord what do you want me to? I have to work to earn money but the work takes time and there is not much time left to do anything else.” And the Lord answered: “Just do what you can!” There is a verse in the Bible which says: "The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few" (Matthew 9:37). There is also another verse: “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19). So I know that if this is God’s will for me to become a full-time minister He will provide the needed support. I will simply do what I can step by step as the Lord opens the doors. Please pray for me!!!

You can read more information on the web-site and I urge you to consider becoming a part of this ministry by praying and helping financially as the Lord leads you.

Thank you!

Testimony a orphan who was abandoned but was found by the Lord

 This is a testimony a girl who was left by mother at Children`s home, study at orphanage, was in shelter(half way house).Today she is Christian serves same children-orphans in Ukraine and is member of team Bible Orphan Ministry.Is not the miracle!

How i came to the Lord

" Come unto me, all that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
(Matthew 11:28 )

  My name is Oksana. I was born  and  grow up in family with unbeliever parents where i never heard about Jesus. We lived in a village. My parents divorced, when I was one year old. I have also oldest sister Alla.
We growed up….It was very hard for our mom  to grow us.We had not often food at home, had not good clothes to wear.I wear out the shoes what was too small or too big for my feets.It brought for me many troubles.Mother beat me often.I have been very frightened as wasn't to whom will stand up for me.I felt myself alone.

  When i was 3-4 years old my mother left me at Children`s home.I was in shock my mom left me.After that i could not speak for along time.Later my mom took me away and left me at home my grandmother who care about me.I did not see my sister Alla for a long time.We miss much one other, wanted to play and grow up together.
Some later mother took me to same orphanage where my sister was study we could to see and speak with one other.Some christians came to orphanage and had spent time with children telling about Jesus Christ. I was interested, but a lot of things I did not understand. In this orphanage I was study and years later my mom took me to home in village—to work hard at home, and garden. But my sister stay at orphanage.

   When I was 13 years old I was in a children's shelter. The father has hidden me there from mother as she often strongly beat me. In the beginning me held in a room with grids at windows that I haven't escaped. But I wasn't going to escape as have been very frightened and didn't know where to run. I felt very alone. There it was awfully boring. Nobody visited me there.My sister did not know i was in children`s shelter at this time.
Soon my mom has found me there and has taken away home. With a pain and fear in heart I had to come back home.
I had a time when i did not know what to do. I felt nobody love me, i felt emptiness and bitterness in my heart. I could not understand, why I live on the Earth, I had not sense in my life. I had depressed condition. In my mind came thoughts to kill my self….

My sister Alla start to come to church and received Jesus Christ in her heart when she was 15 year old.I was in village at this time.

   When my sister finished school, she was study at college for teacher  in other town. She witnessed me about Jesus Christ and invited me to one church. I was in this church a few times, but did not  do important choice in my life yet.But Alla prayed about my salvation of my soul.

   Years later has to be opened a Christian school, and was need a christian teachers. Alla start to work in this school. Some later she took me to live with her.I moved to live in city with my Alla. I was 15 years old and was study at 9th class. So, I lived with Alla and coming to church at same time.The 6 month later I knew many people, had christian friends in church.
I had fear, that some time, I can  go to hell. I wanted to receive Jesus on ministry, when not many people, because I was a shamed that long time visit church but not do important choice.

  But God did how He wanted.The 15 of April, 2001 was holiday of Easter.
There were big crowd of people. In the end of ministry I felt, Holy Spirit touch my heart i decided to give Jesus my heart and my life. I received  Jesus Christ in my heart. Halleluiah!!! Praise the Lord!!! After this, I understood and knew, that I need stay at city, to attend a church, communicate with christians to grow spiritualy. Also I wanted to serve Jesus like my sister. I prayed for this and God answered on my prayer!
Now, I have ministry in orphanages, i`m a teacher of Sunday School at orphanages and church.My life changed.I know, why I live on the Earth! I can minister same children because i was the same way, i know what they feel in their hearts when nobody love you.I know how you feel yourself lonely and abandoned. Just Jesus Christ can give you love, piece and joy in your heart.
Praise the Lord for His love, patient, mercy to me!!!!!

Amen!

Read story how God has changed life of the former orphan- girl for ever!

  How i came to the lord

“And we know that all thing work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to His purpose.”

(Romans 8:28)

   These words apply to all Christians who have trusted the Lord. All the problems and  difficulties we encounter on our  way, the Lord uses them to the benefit of His children.

It was this way in my life too. I grew up in an ordinary family where people did not know God. When I was seven, my younger sister Oksana was born. In a few months my parents divorced. My mother had to raise us all by herself.She was often mad that we were growing up in poverty, without a father and without any support or protection. My mean and very aggressive mother often beat me up; I could not understand why I was often beaten up. I harbored this grudge in my heart. When my father would  come to visit us, I would complain to him and then he would beat up my mother. Continually, I was a witness to fighting and strife. When my parents had a fight I often cried and pleaded with them to stop.

   I was growing up in a family without love, understanding and protection. I was growing up reserved, I kept bitterness in my heart that gradually turned to hatred towards my mother. I was growing up with a dream in my heart to pay her back, for everything she had done to me.

   At the same time I was afraid of her. If I did something not the way she wanted, she would beat me with her fists or by something she got in her hands. Mother worked, but often this money was not enough for us that is why she decided to send me to an orphanage and my sister to the children’s home.

  When she has left me in an orphanage, she told that in 3 months she would return take me back home.I was 9 years old. This orphanage was near Chernobyl.The 3 months pass way, but she hasn't returned...I waited for her all the days long  that one day she would come and it will be in the most joyful day in my life!

   When I was 12 years old, I studied in one of orphanages. Parents came and took away home children for the weekend who lived near. But me parents didn't come. I often was by the window, looked at a city which it was visible partly and cried. It seemed to me that life wasn't fair to me. I was sad and felt much pain in my soul .It seemed that I was nobody necessary. I didn't know what to do.I used to walk  a lot at  the orphanage yard. Children who were more courageous called me to escape from a orphanage. But I was afraid.

   When I was 14, I wondered what happiness was, what the sense of life was.I felt emptiness, bitterness and a pain in my heart. If anybody doesn't love me, what is the point of living on earth?

    I knew that money and material assets don't bring happiness. I understood that happiness not in a family.I could not find the answer, but in my heart I felt there had to be an answer somewhere.What is the happiness?

   Often for different reasons I had to study at four different orphanages. At one of them I heard about Christ.Each week some Christians used to visit us, they spent some time with us, sang songs, and told us about Christ’s love to us. At the same time I came to know other Christians. I noticed that they were unordinary people who were joyful and happy. I couldn’t understand why they were this way, and I wanted to find out the reason why. I loved to hear about Christ and attend services, but as I did not feel a need for Him I often went there because of mere curiosity.

      Almost two years passed. Getting used to the Christian way of life, I began copying their style.Every morning and evening I prayed, bought a Bible and began reading it regularly. I attended services constantly and witnessed to people about Christ .For all those years, I acquired some knowledge of the Word of God that I could apply in my life and telling others about Christ.In my heart I decided I would spend my life this way, reading, praying and so on, but I hesitated to trust Christ and to give my heart to Him. I thought I had nothing to repent of, because I lived a righteous life.

   But once when I was going by train reading the Bible as usual, I started thinking about my life. For what I live, in what meaning of the life, what waits for me in the future? Why should you live if you  are  nobody necessary? I felt emptiness in the heart and that I am not happy.

   I began thinking about the life of Christians and comparing it to my own life, I felt the emptiness in my heart.Something was missing and I got scared. I realized I was going to hell. The thought came to my mind what if the train suddenly came off the rails; I would die and go to hell. I felt I was a great sinner before a Holy God. That day (it was a Sunday and I was just coming to service) I decided to trust in the Lord and put my life in His hands, and surrender completely to Jesus. At the service when the pastor’s invitation was given, I began hesitating, I realized I was held back by Satan, but I made a decisive step forward and went down the aisle. During the prayer I cried much and regretted that I was a great sinner and realized I needed the Lord.

That day I understood what the sense of life and happiness was! I felt very glad and happy!

    The Lord started working with me. The emptiness and pain I had in my heart, He filled with love, peace, forgiveness and joy. I thought that, if I wished for my mother to be dead, that it would make my life easier, but now I forgave her easily, and now I am praying about the salvation of her soul too.I love her very much!

Now I understand why the Lord has allowed me so I studied in different orphanages. That I could bear the Good message to the same children.

   I have since graduated from Teachers Training College in 2000. I used to hate the profession of a teacher, but during the last year of my studies I came to understand that it was the will of God that He appointed me to the ministry to the Children.

   I used to be ashamed to tell everybody that I was a kid from the orphanages because I knew that people where of a bad opinion about these kids. It humiliated me, I did not feel like a normal kid but the Lord turned everything to good and now I am no longer ashamed of this because I know it was the will of God. Glory to Him for that!

   Now I love the children in the orphanages! I have a dream to be able to help orphans with their physical needs and I know how they feel and what they need everyday. I pray and dream that the Lord will enlarge the limits in the ministry of Sunday School in the orphanages. To let them know about the Living God. That He is our hope, our help and also our protection. If there is no love and understanding in a family, that they might know that they can find it all in God!

How the Lord called me to the ministry

    I`m almost in the begining this ministry. In 2001 i was study at Bible college.In this college was a ministry and all students who wanted, they could to visit orphans.In couple months later i start to visit orphanages also.

   When i was first time at orphanage where are boys with special needs and with Down`s syndrome i was in big shock.Many of children are cripple.I live in Ukraine and did not know about these poor children.They had so threadbare and wear out clothes, most of all can not speak just some boys and very bad,they all were screaming, crying,oldest boys beat smaller,some of them were aggressive, most of all can`t eat good, all children skinny much, just bons, they had wear out clothes, with out shoes, nothing good and many not good things i saw.They even did not know how candy need to eat with out cover paper.When we start to visit this orphanage, kids were sit inside of the room on sand or earth.There was not floor! The fly and other bugs were crawl on their body and in this rooms were smell so much(i`m sorry).Outside they were like in special cage, that they can not run everywhere.No toys, no any games, nothing!

   Students of college were singing but i could not, a big lump was in my throat.The tears was running on my face.After this trip i could not come to myself senses for a long time.After i visited some more difference orphanages.

   In same time i was a teacher at Christian school, i had first class.After trips of orphanages i wanted come back but could not because i worked.I prayed and could not understand many things, i loved much my work but felt God gave me a wish visited these orphanages.I said to Lord: "God, i work i can not do it! Where i take money to live, if i will leave a work?"  But in my heart i felt i want to come back again and again.I did not know what to do.So, very soon a school where i worked closed.I stay with out work but was happy could to visit orphans!

    It was very hard i had not work, lived with younger sister Oksana, we were need food, often we were hungry, we were need pay utilities for flat and other physical needs.I prayed to God about it, about job.In Ukraine many things are difference.I understood if i go to work i can not visit orphans.Also i understood we need food and other things.These thinking were every day in my heart! I undertood responsibility for my sister.I have to care about her, feed, buy clothes and etc.I was breaking in my heart.I prayed much and fasting often.I did not know what to do.It was on during 2 years.But every day God bless us, sent food, money for utilities and many other blessing! God showed me that i continue to visit orphans, He will provide what we need.He is faithful! Our Lord is wonderful! No one day He did not leave us! He has made a lot of miracles in our life! 

  My lovely Bible verse: 

"Trust in the LORD, and do good; [so] shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed." Psalms.37:19

   After graduation of Bible college i decided to continue to visit all orphanages.I love much this ministry! I understood, if i will not do it but who will do? If we will not teach them about God, devil teach them wrong things.By the grace of God we continue this ministry! I`m so happy Jesus called me and i can to minister this poor and abonded children! His perfect way is the BEST! I cannot tell you of all the joy and thankfulness in my heart what i feel! It is amazing  when we can visit orphans and give them love and hope! God is so good even when we don’t deserve it!

This is the house where i grew up when was a child

It was my room
