Caretakers for boys -- continue the project

A few weeks will be a year as with your help we raised the necessary sum and hired two caretakers to mental institution. Time flies awfully fast! Even can not believe that a year has passed ... Thanks to the many wonderful people, generous donors in small and huge donations and even anonymous donors ... The boys were able to receive the necessary care and attention. 

Looking through the list of donors, tears flow with joy, happiness and humble heart ... How many people opened their generous hearts to these lonely and abandoned boys. How many gave gifts of love, wanting to change the lives of disadvantaged children. How many prayed, sent emails, shared on social networks spreading the word.... Tears of joy flow from thinking how great and amazing our Lord Jesus Christ. How He wonderfully blessed and poured out His astonish love to these precious souls, showing His care for them. Those, whom the world considers unworthy...

Only for several weeks we were able to raise  more then $6000! Wow! It was a AMAZING miracle!

These wonderful caretakers faithfully performed their job and did everything, what they were told to do.

They dressed boys and got out outdoors

Changed clothes, when it was necessary

Сhanged diapers

Fed those, who cannot eat by themselves.

Washed the children, watch order and cleanliness in the rooms. Washed and mopped the floors and much more.

But the most. They replaced mothers to these treasures, hugging, comforting and wiping away tears. Children are very used to them already.

The administration of this institution are very happy and every time as our arrival, always  thank for the great rendered help with "extra hands". But we know that this would not have happened without your participation. :)

A HUGE need and desire of administration and ours certainly, again hire these same caretakers signed a contract for a year. They are perfectly cope with their work providing care and attention to these tiny kids. Especially that it is vitally important, Friends. So our desire is that to continue this vital project, what we started a year ago. Their presence in the institution and the attention that they give the sweet boys is LIFE CHANGING for the children that they work with.

But we can not hire them until would not be gathered all the necessary amount. We have very short time to raise $6000!

Will you help, please? Would you please consider an act of love on behalf of these precious souls?Every seed sown with love is a VERY great help and blessing. Each sent lovely gift, big or small, is greatly appreciated.

We kindly ask you with humble hearts...PLEASE.  Could you, please, find a minute to share about this great need wherever you are able, on social networks, blogs, emails... 

If the Lord Jesus has stirred up your heart and gives you the desire to participate in the life of these sweet boys. Your gift of love you can send via Paypal BOM  thebibleorphanministry@gmail.com. Select option "I'm sending money to family or friends" and leave a note that this gift is to hire caretakers for boys.Thank you!

Thermometer on the right side of the blog, will show how much has been raised. Thank you very much to find a time and share this blog post. Thanks a lot for your involvement. We really appreciate it!!!

We pray for a miracle and mercy of our Heavenly Father to these poor and abandoned boys.Would you pray with us, please?THANK YOU!!!

"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...

Our thoughts can become reality :)

Did you ever have it? When you think about something, and after a while, it became a reality? Just think and reflect on something ... And your thoughts become reality. I believe that you had. :)  Born again Christians, who find a daily solace in their Savior, who is trying to walk the narrow way and do His will. Experiencing the feeling and excitement, when the Lord makes our thoughts a reality. Because the Bible says:

(Psalm 37:4) "Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart". 

How awesome is it! God left us a promise, if we admire, delight and find joy in Him. He will fulfill the desires of our heart.Is not amazing blessing?

This is one of my beloved Bible verses. Lord fulfilled a lot of my heart desires, which I could only dream of. About what, I'm only just thought and.... never could think that this can become a reality. ;)

I am very happy to share with you a blessing, what blew my mind!Where God has shown that nothing is impossible for Him! (Jeremiah 32:27) "Behold, I [am] the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?" 

About 2 weeks ago we went to one trade school because we had to solve some things. When we were about to leave, in the other side of the room, the girl was standing at the door and waved her hand. Next to her was another girl. The teacher made ​​a joke and said: "Oh, the girls must came to the boys and waving to them". There, in the class room were several boys. And we smiled headed to the exit, to the door.

When we approached closer to the girls. One of them said hello, smiling sweetly.

After a moment, I saw a familiar sweet face. I'm a little confused, wondering where I could see her... She began to show us a photo, where was of her class and team BOM together. Joyfully exclaiming: "I remember, I remember you!" pointing to a picture of who is who. We realized that she was waving to us.

Sometimes it's hard to remember the names of thousands of children. But God knows. :) I was stunned remembering the girl! It was such a joy that Nastya kept it and took a photo with her at this trade school. Remembering us and that last meeting a year ago... It warmed our hearts.Such a joy!

Nastya is left on the photo in yellow blouse.

But a few minutes later I was even MORE stunning!"Oh, God, I can not believe! I can not believe my own eyes. I can not believe that this has happened ..." I thought at that moment...

Each year in May, we present special gifts to graduates of orphanages with the last meeting with them. We always interested and ask administartion of  orphanages about the children. Who, where and how live after leaving orphanages. In May this year, we asked about these teens and it was sad to hear about Nastya.

That she nowhere, in any college has not entered and stayed the home. I do not know yet everything about her family. But I know that her family is one of the disadvantaged. Maybe just no one was able to help Nastya ... Since that time, thoughts kept running through my head ... Maybe we would have been able to help her? Maybe one day we would have helped her enroll in a college, any school? Maybe... Probably not. Who knows? This happened several times over several months. I by thoughts sometimes came back and thought about Nastya....

Also, since the last few months we are busy most of the problems of teenagers and young adults. I thought several times... What, if we take a ride on several colleges, trade schools in our city and find orphans , those that we know and invite them to church? Maybe we will not be able to help in all their physical needs , but we can tell them about the Lord , about Who will be able to comfort them and help them. Who can be their true Friend and Savior. In the first years, these children are very hard to settle in new places. 

I thought...Maybe if several of them. What if, we will find them and let them know about BOM. That we can pray for them . And we are here to help, what we can.

A time went on... Thoughts had run in my mind. What if? What if?.. In which school to go? Where to find them? and other questions...

A moment later I remembered my thoughts about Nastya... and that to find  graduates  orphanages ... 

I was extremely surprised, amazed and impressed! Oh, my! How it can be? I could not believe!In front of me stood a  beautiful young girl... The one, whose thoughts were spinning in my head a few months. 

Picture was made a year ago on same picnic :)

The one that I thought how and where she is ... But I never thought that I would meet her again! :)Amazing!

So, about 2 weeks ago we met precious young lady Nastya( in green sweater in the photo) and her sweet friend Katya with long beautiful hair. You will not believe it! But Katya is also a graduate of the orphanage, but the other one. They are both first year of study in a trade school and in one group.God is awesome!

Both girls were already in  service of the church and were able to hear the word of God.We also had a lovely fellowship and tea with some young people. :)

I am SO happy and praise God for His goodness and miracles He is doing! :)

Please, pray for these two beautiful souls. Remember in your daily prayers. Pray that they would open their hearts to Jesus and He changed their lives.Thank you!

But there is a sad side of the story. A few days before our meeting with Nastya. Burned down her house and perished her stepfather.All her belongings burned."I have nowhere else to go ..." Nastya said sadly. Poor girl ... Pray for her. Who knows? Is not for this purpose, the Lord has connected our vital roads?

The family is growing ;)

We have an exciting news for you! :)
A little Ehdick is going to be a big brother! Yes, the lovely family Kozak, Olga and Sasha are expecting one more baby somewhere in April. :)

On this picture is their little angel. The baby looked so a month ago. So precious!

"My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, [and] curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all [my members] were written, [which] in continuance were fashioned, when [as yet there was] none of them". 

(Psalm139:15-16)KJV

But Olga has some issues with health. The doctor said that it can affect the baby. We would be so grateful, if you please support this family in your prayers. Especially for the health of Olga and babe.Thank you very much!

P.S. We still had not found housing for them. Please, keep praying!

What is doing God

Do you see these 2 young beautiful ladies on the pictures below?One, on the right side, you already know. Our beautiful Olga.The other girl, I want to introduce her to you.I am so excited to tell you what is doing God! :)

First. We really want to thank everyone, who participated and helped raise funds for our student Olga. To get an education and for her daily needs. With God's help, we were able to raise all nesessary money and even a little more  $1.739. :) All Glory to God! Thank you very much to all for your prayers! This is such a great blessing, prayer support!Thank you!Thank you!Thank you for everything!

 One day in September, when we had very cold days. Every day, poured cold and icy rains. The two girls came to the church in summer shoes. Walking in the cold and rain and at a cold puddles.  Only from the thought of it getting cold . When someone asked. "Are you not cold ?" "No", they replied in the affirmative shivering from the cold... 

    Nadya shared with us.When she went to buy boots for girls because they had not. First they tried to help to Olga's friend, Masha. Nadya did not even have time to help discern, whether they are good for Masha, suitability of size, etc. Sweet girl immediately shod boots on her feet . "Yes , Yes good! It`s suitable for me!" . It was obvious that she poor girl, felt so cold that was ready to wear any shoes, just to keep warm. Right from the shop she is pleased was walking home in new boots. Her face and eyes were shining with happiness. :)

Thanks to your support, the two precious girls do not feel cold at feet any more. Thank you!

Ok.Let me tell you from the beginning about Masha.

On that day, when all the students arrived to school and settled in a dormitory, where our Olga now study. It was and our part also, meet with the teachers to know everything, pay for everything, etc. 

  At that day we were sitting in a dorm room, where our student settled and we talked a little on the Christian subject. In the side, on her bed, the other girl sat quietly and attentively listening the conversation. We quickly got acquainted and continued our conversation. She continued to silently listen and watch us . We noticed that she was alone , without parents. "A Brave girl..." , I thought. "She came to school alone, without parents and help". But she kept sat and listened . 

     

    On that day, we absolutely had no idea that this was just the beginning ...The beginning of what prepared our loving and wonderful Saviour, Lord Jesus. :)

  The next day, when we came to Olga to school to take her to church. Masha came up to us and asked softly, "Can I go with you to church also?" We were surprised and pleased to hear it! "Of course!"  So, she gladly joined with us.

  

     One day, when we met and became acquainted closer. And when I asked, what school she graduated, I was shocked to hear it. "I graduated from orphanage this year and  came to this school." "What? are you serious ?" She smiled sweetly at me. I was not ready to hear this...

"Oh, Lord, I do not know what you are doing... But this is amazing..."  I prayed in my heart....I was shocked that the Lord has brought to us one more, this precious girl, who spent many years in orphanage. One more soul, who may need the support...

Since that day, for the third consecutive month, Masha faithfully attends every ministry of our church. :)

But that's not all. Other boys and girls from the same school come to us for church service. Is not that amazing? Is not that God's providence? Olga came to school not only get an education, but many of the young people were able to hear the word of God, and grieving soul find peace and rest in the Lord.Isn`t it awesome what is doing God? :)

We are so excited for Masha and other young souls, who visit our church services!

Would you please, pray for Masha and for these young souls? Pray for their salvation and their hearts will be open  to Christ?Thanks a lot!

"For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD. 

For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. 

For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 

So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it." 

(Isaiah55:8-11) KJV

Sad reality

When we asked Zhenya to show the house where she wanted to live there.

Here's what we saw...

This day was cloudy and gloomy. From what we saw, seemed to become even darker. The house is neglected and in terrible condition...

When we came into the house there was heavy to breathe, despite the fact that the doors there are never closed.I was afraid to breathe there, afraid to pick up a some bacillus TB or even any other of disease. 

Therefore, took a deep breath, by making a few quick pictures, I was in a hurry to leave this place as soon as possible to the street.

If you remember, that I mentioned that Zhenya wanted to live in the house mother in law, who is ill open tuberculosis.Now in this house no one lives. 

We talked to this poor girl about this not good idea, explaining that she and her family can get sick of this terrible disease. Then she said that to make a repair. When we counted how many repairs will cost, and what to do there overhaul, change floors, windows, doors, etc. Bacillus  tuberculosis can live for years in an old and damp house . It turned out that all this is going to be expensive . It will be easier to buy a small and modest house than to make repairs to this house. Where there is no guarantee that you will not become sick of this terrible disease.

It is a very sad reality, Friends...

Terribly that hundreds and thousands of people live in the same state . Alcohol, drugs , poverty , unemployment, without hope and a future... 

Horribly, how Satan destroys the lives of these people. They slowly die without seeing the light, faith in their lives and hopes for the future. 

Awfully and heartbreaking thing is that many of the children live in these homes... Naked, the sick and the hungry can look into your eyes begging bread. 

Sadly, because of this, many thousands of children get into orphanages, baby houses. Abandoned by parents, without care, without seeing or knowing how to receive and give love. With broken hearts and distressed . This is awfully! Terrible how Satan destroys families and lives. It is so and so sad reality...

Zhenya and her family moved to another house in other town. One of the relatives of the husband Kolya gave permission that they lived in her home until spring. This is a very modest and old house.

Many poor people in rural areas live in similar homes. 

But it seems that it's warm in the winter.We are very hope.

God has blessed their movement just in time! Because the next day was going come the owner of the house, where they lived before. It is amazing how God organized everything!

But again need your prayers for this family. Since spring they have nowhere to live again. We think and pray how to help this poor souls...

Also, a neighbor of the house said that in this house there lived a man, who was ill with tuberculosis.The owner, a relative of Kolya, says that's not true. But you'll never know where the truth... As the owner recently got out of prison for murder in a drunken company. Some of relatives still suffering from TB. 

Your prayers still need very and very much for protection of this family!They feel so desperate...Pray that God has provided a good shelter in the future, in 4 months. And for all their spiritual and physical needs.Thanks a lot for your prayer support, Friends!

Housing again?

We call these recent months, September and October, "Months of Housing". We have to provide a housing for one more family. :)

We were looking for housing for family of Zhenya, then for Yaroslava. And now we have to find housing for a family Kozak. The owner has sold an apartment and we have to find a new home for them. We have only 2 weeks! This is a very and very short period of time! 

In addition, we need to help find housing for another orphaned boy. This is interesting what God is doing!

Olga and Sasha pray that God has provided them with housing. They have nowhere to go. Will you support them in prayer to God to set it up? That we will find not expensive and good housing for this lovely and young family.This is urgent, Friends!Thank you!

Also continue to pray for my health. The other day I felt a little better. But today the whole day I spent in bed again. Thank you very much for all your wonderful love, prayer support and emails. It humbles my heart in thanksgiving to God for all of you.

My love to all!

Quite a stressful week.

We have some troubles and this week is quite stressful for us. I feel very upset and disappointed. Some moments absolutely breaks my heart.My eyes do not dry from the tears. Several days already my hearts hurts... I very hope it is not because all these troubles. Would you pray, please? Pray God protected us from evil, pray for wisdom and strength,  do Lord`s will and see His guidance and good health for us. We really need your prayer support  these days.Thank you very much!

P.S. I have several updates for you and would like to share . I am going to do it every day. But...it is hard. I will do it as soon as possible. When I will feel physically better. Thank you for all your love!

Olga is at home

Hello everyone! I am very glad to tell you that our sweet girl Olga is at home, she is not at hospital.She is healthy and continues her studies at school.Thanks to your many prayers and support, she started to recover very quickly. She is very grateful for all the prayers and support to assist her.

Praise God for all His mercies and blessings!

Also as you can see on our thermometer, on the right side of the blog, we need only $261 to be fully funded. Awesome!Thank you very much, who is helping to support her studies and in her other daily needs!God bless you!!!

Terrible suffering and then be surprisingly blessed

I am sooooo thrilled to tell you amazing news and blessing!!!It seems that my heart now will jump out for joy and excitement. :)

But first. It is a heartbreaking and terrible story. :(

It is only a little part of an orphaned girl, who had so many troubles in the last few weeks. It is just a few things what happens with orphans after they leave orphanages.I will tell you a little what are the difficulties and trials meet face to face these lonely and defenseless children.It will be heartbreaking story with happy end.

Well. I will start from the beginning.
Do you remember that several months ago we asked you to pray for a one precious soul, Yaroslava?Do you remember that we did not know what to do and how to help her?All we could, it is pray for her...

Very soon, director of the dormitory where she lived , began to tell pressuring on her every day . That Yaroslava would enroll in some trade school. If she will not go to this school , director would kicked out this poor girl on the street. Of course Yaroslava was very scared and under pressure , with tears and fear she went there to study. But the worst thing is that she feels embarrassed there, because it's school only for boys. She is only an one girl of 22 boys of her group . At this school, where about 130 guys are only 2 or 3 girls . 

How do you think she feels like there ? Take classes, where you do not want , where you feel uncomfortable and pressure. Is it fair to acquire profession boys what do not need for a girl, only because not to be on the street?

Director of dorm promised that this sweetheart could live there for another year. Then, each day she changed her mind. That Yaroslava will be able to live just before the New Year. Then, just before December of this year. Then, she said different. And it was every day! One day, she said. You go to that trade school, then you must live in the dormitory of the school. 

Trust me. We saw this dorm. It seems worse than ever seen before! Windows and doors are beaten. Locks broken out. Torn mattresses on the beds, the beds are broken. Horrible spectacle. Moreover guys often fight with knives. Police there is often a guest. 

And the director wanted that this precious girl lived in a dorm for boys? This poor girl, in tears,  every day called me pouring out the pain of her soul....

Oh, my!It is so heavy seeing poor orphan in tears and feeling myself so helpless! All we could. It is give comfort her and pray trusting to the Lord.

Then in a one or two weeks again а trouble... 

Administrator of dormitory was cleaning all sorts of unnecessary things from one of the rooms, where there was a storage room.In that storage, all children(of the dorm) could to store their winter and various other things. 

Some winter clothes what belong to children orphans, including things of Yaroslava the lady threw to garbage on the street. It was the only one Yaroslava`s winter jacket, boots, and a few other clothes! Can you imagine the shock of these children??? What did they feel? Who would wipe their tears? 

With only a few things that belong to them, someone without their permission dispose of them. Throws in the trash, depriving the only one things.It seems that these "graduated" children still live in orphanage... 

When Yaroslava complained to the director of the dorm about this trouble. The director replied coldly to her. "That's your problem, deal with them yourself." And that's it.... :(

When children start to complain about the workers of  dormitory, they name-calling them rude and demeaning words. Humiliate them. There is no understanding, etc. 

Yaroslava not once complained about workers and crying about which humiliating and rude words they called them. The administration does not believe the words of children thinking them liars. Or may not want to believe because it is beneficial to them? 

Then this sweetheart was sick 3 weeks. She is now much better and she feels good. Glory to God! But another problem again...

One teacher from the school, where the study Yaroslava came and began to complain to the director dorm that Yaroslava shirk school.If she will not come to class , she was turned out of school ?What?

The director knew at the time that BOM supports Yaroslava . We bought her food and medicine . She called us and started to complain. We are quite well aware of this girl and we knew that she could not cheat. After listening to the director we have explained , giving her to understand that we believe more to Yaroslava, and no one to another, who was involved in this situation, we have never had any problems with her and that she really is sick. This woman unexpected that we will stand up for this poor orphan . She paused for a moment. Apparently not knowing what to say. After a moment, she said , "well I 'll decide problem myself" . But we knew well, who was right and that she will no longer offend this poor girl .

But the story is not over...

When Yaroslava felt a little better , the director has again started to put pressure on her. If she does not go to school, she would kick her out of the dorm . If I was a mother, I would not let my child in this state to go to class. But sometimes we are helpless ... 

At this time in Ukraine was terrible cold. Usually this weather is in late October or early November . But not in the middle of September! Many houses , schools , kindergartens , hospitals, etc. not heated . And many people have became ill . We were worried that Yaroslava not feeling still well, went to school, get sick even worse. But by the grace of God and the prayers of many , she feels good.

At this time , all students received stipend . When her turn came, Yaroslava  was refused . Explaining that she  shirked all the classes at school . When she started to explain that brought sickness certificate from doctor that she was really sick. She still was refused.

Poor girl again in tears, came pouring out of her heart . She had hoped that this money will be able to buy something to get dressed and put on shoes . After all her belongings thrown out , as I mentioned above. This is terrible! How it can be ?Where is the justice? This is a crime!

"Remove not the old landmark; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless: For their redeemer [is] mighty; he shall plead their cause with thee". (Proverbs 23:10-11)KJV

This is her field and money belongs to her!

We realized that the head teacher of the school, is up to something and is not going to give money. This precious soul every day reminded him of stipend. We decided to pray and ask God to intercede and intervene on behalf of this poor orphan. If in the next week, nothing happens. We thought to go and ask him. Why did he illegally holds the money of that student girl? And that Yaroslava went and wrote a statement about head teacher at the prosecutor's office that she would have given her money. 

The head teacher became even more angry and was not going to give this poor girl owned her stipend finding all kinds of excuses. At the last meeting, he threw her out of the office and having called humiliating her.

And do you know what? We did not have long to wait! Very soon, this man went unexpectedly somewhere. No one could understand why he just "left" his job without a reason. Later, everyone knew that he was caught in a very bad case and was disgraced for all the school. 

"A [good] name [is] rather to be chosen than great riches, [and] loving favour rather than silver and gold". 

I do not want to say what. It is very bad. But not because of the money. He was deprived of his actions because a criminal one. Now director of this school is looking for another head teacher or vice-principal. Woman, who temporarily replaces him, and found out the problem Yaroslava promised that next month she will receive a stipend for two months. 

We were VERY surprised that God has answered our prayers and so quickly resolved the issue. Wow!It is amazing!

 "Rob not the poor, because he [is] poor: neither oppress the afflicted in the gate:  For the LORD will plead their cause, and spoil the soul of those that spoiled them". (Proverbs22:22-23)

All this happened during little more than month...:( This sweet girl has undergone so much misery and hardship and shed so many bitter tears ... It's all horrible and heartbreaking ...

But God loves this precious and lovely girl! You will not believe, but Heavenly Father sent her housing!

A one beautiful and lovely family decided to support this beautiful young girl. God connected  their hearts by an invisible thread of love. :) They sent her huge amount of blessing, which is enough to rent an apartment for a year! Also they blessed her with new shoes, winter boots, autumn/spring jacket and other things! It is more then amazing!WOW!

When we were looking for housing for family of Zhenya. At the same time, we looked for apartment for Yaroslava. It was not easy. We had some difficulties. But God is SO good as always! :)

We decided to make her a small and pleasant surprise showing how God loves and cares about her. We bought flowers and balloons. And left a little message on the card.

When we were walking to the apartment, she absolutely had NO idea what is waiting for her! :)

There was a note which had a text:
Dear Yaroslava!
God loves you! He heard your heartfelt prayers and sent you this rented apartment.
Since this day you can not worry about where you will live next months.
Only live, be happy and thank your Heavenly Father, who always takes care of his children, especially orphans who love Him. :)

 With Love in Jesus: BOM and M. family <3

She was blown away!

                                                  She is such a treasure!

This lovely girl was AMAZED!And all time said," I am in shock. I can not believe! I can not believe!" :)

                                                     We love her so much!

This sweetheart said that she is even MORE then happy and hugged everyone :)

Then she began to learn her home.

Also she was surprised that there is piano. Honestly, we were surprised too. :) We know that Yaroslava dreams to learn play on piano. When she saw it, she start to play immediatly!She was SO excited!

We pray God will make it possible that her dream come true some day. It will costs her $50.00 per month. Maybe someone is interested to help this precious girl her dream come true? :) It is not late yet to get in music school. We do not wish she study at trade school for boys, where she is now and very soon she will leave it. If God gives you a wish, please email us bibleorphanministry@gmail.com Thanks!

This is not all! Yaroslava will not live alone. There is enough place for several girls! So, we plan to settle someone there.How is AWESOME this blessing?! :)

I am just AMAZED how God organized everything and did everything in time!

You will not believe it , but we know this treasure only 3 months! When we found out that she will have no place to live after a few months , we began to pray that God would be given her shelter. At that point, we had NO idea that we will support her, and that the BOM will take part in it. We invited her to our church , and since then , she faithfully attends every service . As it is very easy to talk with her , so we became friends with her very quickly. Then more we learned what she had suffered as a child in the orphanage and now. The more it broke in pieces and humbled our hearts ... 

After a few weeks Yaroslava will have to leave the dorm. Just a few days ago, she was very worried and prayed.  She just had no where to go! But God sent housing in time and she is very happy! Praise Him for that!!! God is awesome and amazing!!!!!!  :)

Need prayers for healing

I was going tell you about some awesome blessings we have. But a some precious soul needs our prayers of healing during these days.

Olga student, who because of your wonderful care and support today is getting an education. She is very glad! 

This sweet soul needs $661 more to be fully funded! Our thermometer on the blog, shows that we are so close to our goal $1700! :) Great! Thanks a lot everyone, who is taking part in it. 

But on Tuesday from school by tutor was called an ambulance and she was taken to hospital with high fever. On examination she was diagnosed with purulent tonsillitis . Poor girl . Olechka is very sick right now and looks very sickly. She can not walk alone. When she stands up, she feels dizzy and feels bad. I do not know the reason . Maybe because of the high fever? 

But on the first day, when we came to visit her , we have not talked for a long time . And she decided to show us the wound on her hand opening it, because she already  putted a drip. It was a bit bleeding . She said, "Oh, I wish I did not show you it. I feel sick".  Poor girl suddenly felt bad  and fell to the floor. We have not even had time to react, because we did not think that she might lose consciousness! Oh, my! We're all frightened started to call on the help of nurses . We worried that she did not have a concussion because she hit of the head. Most  sadly that we could not catch her and give help . As we were talking at the door , through a special small window, where you can visit the sick in the isolation ward and communicate. All that we could shout it , knock on the window and call for help. We were very scared. Poor girl . Nurses ran in time and looked  fearfulness also . When we explained to one of the nurses that Olga girl from the orphanage , alone and she needs special support . The nurse started to calm us , that we would not have to worry , because there are all good providers in this ward . And they will take care of this precious girl . It's a little reassured us .

 Every day we buy it necessary that the doctor prescribes medicines and food. The hospitals are not well fed. If you no one will bring additional food, you'll be a long time to recover, or even more sick...

This loving soul needs your prayers now and these next days.Also, please, keep pray we can raise all necessary funds to help this sweetheart with education and getting medication to be healed soon.Thank you so much!

Not good news

Well. I have not good news for you, dear Friends.

All the while we were busy in search of housing for family Zhenya . 

We glued  announcements wherever possible, called , went to several towns , walked for hours through the streets and homes, and asked the people, also we left the announcement in some newspaper . In those cities, where we thought we settle this family , there are no agents or brokers, who could help in the search for housing. People have to do it yourself. It seems, you can spend months in searching of housing...

It was difficult, because it is very cold right now in Ukraine +7, +10C(+44.6, +50F) This weather is usually in late October or November. Do not even want to leave the house, when the rain every day for 6 weeks, very cold and damp. Brrr! Many people have started to get sick. We are all , by the grace of God are healthy.

Rain washed away everything. We  had to renew the announcements  . And all this is to no avail. We can not find housing for this poor family. We do not know what to do. Maybe God has a different plan , or we just have to wait or go to other cities and towns ? I do not know. We need your prayer support , friends. That God has opened what is in His plans. What He wants that we would do. That He would direct our hearts and eyes , where He wants,  where ever the family settled.PLEASE, keep pray!Thanks a lot.

Zhenya is worried much. Almost daily calls and asks, if we found something ...

So beautiful sky on the way home!

Few minutes later. :(

P.S. Even in these desperate days we have AMAZING blessing! I can not wait to share with you all! :)

What is with Zhenya`s family

The first, we would like to thank you all for prayers for this poor, Zhenya`s family.

The second, PLEASE, keep praying!

Finally, I can tell you some news that we have for today.

Since that time, as happened this grief and trouble at this young family, we visited them a few times to do something about this issue. But it was hard, because precious little baby Victor was sick and his mother was with him at the hospital. Husband Zhenya works till 8.00 pm, and he is unable to decide something. Finally a sweet baby is feeling better by God's grace, and he is at home.

The family still lives in the house that this poor girl bought. But every night they are going to bed and DO NOT know, whether they will spend the next night in this house. Of course, they are frightened and feeling discouraging. You can imagine what they feeling...

We spoke with several local authorities. Here's what we found out. First . The police is doing their job in concerning aunt of Zhenya . I do not know how this will end , and whether she will be in jail. But her aunt is famous by not a good reputation in the town. 

 The second. We have asked some questions and asked for help . Since Zhenya is the orphan and has a newborn baby. She also acquired the government house , which generally can not be sold . There are certain laws in our country. That is a BIG trouble even for government staff! There so many details. That not to confuse you , because the laws of our country and the laws of other countries can be different . After talking with the local authorities, we realized that the best option for this family, to move from there  in search of a new home. Now we are working on it. This may take some time. One kind person blessed $500  this poor family. Glory to God !!! That will be enough for a few months to rent a home for them!

PLEASE, we ask you heartly continue to pray fervently and unceasingly for this affected family. Pray that we were able to find an  inexpensive and good house/apartment as soon as possible . Also, for  a  new work for Kolya , as he forced leave this one, in connection with the move.Thank you VERY MUCH!

If Heavenly Father moves your heart to help this family. Donations can be made through PayPal BOM thebibleorphanministry@gmail.com  Thanks a lot!May God bless you!
