The next day we could to see other orphans

The next day, it was Friday we were able to see orphans in K. orphanage. The Lord Jesus is merciful to us and He blessed this trip also!
This time we have told the Bible story about Joseph and about forgiveness.How he forgave his brothers for evil they did for him.
In the beginning our Bible lesson we congratulated a girl who had Birthday.It is our law congratulate kids with Birthday in the beginning.

                                             Alina was happy to have got a toy!

Nadya has told about seeds our hearts.She showed difference seeds of fruits to children and she explained to them.That we must to have a good seeds in our hearts.If we would  have a bad seeds, it will grow not good fruits on trees of our heart.It is like falsehood, not forgiveness, theft, laziness and etc.But most of all Nadya was telling about not forgiveness.We must to have soft heart which can make it just Jesus Christ.
We wanted to buy fruits for children to eat and find there seeds.It would help them better to remember about seeds of our hearts.And also they love very much any sweets or fruits! But we were not able to buy fruits for children and decided to use seeds what we have found.

 After Bible lesson children played difference games.They had to unriddle a crossword.

                         Also they had to find words, names of hero in Bible story.

                                                                Other game.

Also we have learn with children a Bible verse  "...forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you". Ephesians 4:32

As all time in the end of lesson children have made a crafts.They love it very much!We try to placed a Bible verse on craft all time.It helps them remember it during some time.Also they enjoy to do something their hands.

These crafts we made with children last Friday.They decided to paste it and leave on the wall.Children love very much to make crafts.But it is problem for us with color pencils or crayons, paints and other difference craft items what children can use.Please, can you help us to help children continue enjoy of it? We are not able.We need your help...
Also we need any toys to children for their Birthday.Please, can you help orphans to be happy in their special day?They wait gifts all time!

We were glad to see these children again!It is a blessing to see them, bring to them if only a little gladness to their life, make their life more bright and iridescent like rainbow, help them find Jesus Who can make them full happy!

It is a blessing to see them again!

How is amazing our the Lord Jesus! God blessed and we were able to see orphans in N. B. orphanage. We had amazing time!
In the beginning we congratulated girls with Birthdays.

 How they were happy when they have got Birthdays gifts!One girl said:" I will remember you forever." They all time wait we will present them any gifts or toys.Their eyes shine and they smile.
Nobody congratulate them with Birthday.You know how is important day of Birthday for any child.

This time we talked about Abraham, God`s promises to him and about his son Isaac.
They liked to help us say to them Bible story together with us.They placed stars on flannel and did try to count grains of sand as like Lord promised to Abraham to bless him.

 We explained to them we can count stars on flannel.But the stars that are on the heaven we can not account.Also as like we can not count the grains of sand the Lord promised to bless Abraham.
As these girls have special needs, mental affection, we hope it will help them remember better this story.

Especially girls liked to play a game to swaddle the child. We did not have dolls so, we took a puppets and used it.Any way they were glad much to play it.We have found they do know even how to play with dolls! It is surprise and is not surprise in same time. They all never had a doll! They do not know how to play with it! We are sure younger girls would like to have dolls.We are not able to present to them it.Can you please, help in it?
 If they are happy to get a one little candy can you imagine how they would be happy to get a doll?

We have played some more difference games.Also in the end of lesson we have made crafts. All children love it very much!

We were surprised much at this time.A one girl she did not understand how to use a color pencil.We showed to her how to color, how to use and etc.She all time take it to mouth and bite it or eat it.We said and showed her: "no, no, you can not do it"! We showed her again and again how to use a pencil.But she start to eat it again.We thought it was no sense. It is need time to teach and train her maybe every day.We had not much time to be with her because other 44 kids wait for you.Our team is small. We need someone to help with kids all time!

But this time when we gave her a pencil she start to color! WOW! Amazing! We never thought she will color when ever! Yes, it is just lines and something obscurity.But she colored! She was glad of it!

Also in the beginning of Bible lesson when we just came into the class she was smiling.We understood she recognised us.Because before she did not pay attention.She understand very well when she need stand up, go to eat, she listen her name and similar things.But she does not speak!Oh, poor girl! So, she can not say how she feels, what she would like,she is happy or sad.You can just read her eyes.
We were glad to see she has start to color.Hope she will remember it and learn more things. 

We were blessed to see children again! We praise the Lord for one more opportunity to see these special orphans and bring to them if only a little beam of light to their life!

God says and God does!

This is our little testimony how God cares about orphans.
Last Friday we were able to visited orphanage in P. where are girls with special needs. We had soooo great and blessed time with children!We all are sooo happy we could to see them all and have spent time with them.
When we have gone there we have spent all money what we had that to see these sweet little faces and also help them a little bit in their needs.We knew before, if we will help them we can not go to see other orphans in difference orphanages where we have ministry.We decided to help by the faith and gave all our needs to the Lord He will provide what we need.
So, when we came back to home from P. we did not have money to go to other orphanages.We prayed about it, were thinking how we will go to see other orphans and have asked the Lord to help us. We did not worry because the Lord gave us a piece in our hearts.We did not know or the Lord will bless.We did not know when He will bless and how much.We knew nothing.We just gave Him all and had piece and faith in our hearts.

Here is what God said us in the Bible few days ago:

66:9 "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. 
66:10 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: 
66:11 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. 
66:12 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. 
66:13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem. 
66:14 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".
Isaiah 66:9-14


When God tells you something in the Bible you can not pass by, you feel something unusual in your heart and in your mind.You do not feel yourself same like few minutes ago. You read this place of scripture many and many times and you understand what God tells you.God touch your heart and you feel it.

After that when we have read it God gave us more faith in our hearts.We were happy and weeping.It was tears of happiness!
Do you know what my dear Friend? God did it!
He said us about that in the Bible and He did it!He has blessed us a little bit that we able to go and see other orphans who wait us all time. It is amazing! God cares about orphans!

Yes, we can not help them in their needs but we able come and see them all! We able to visit 3 orphanages during 3 days! We can come and tell them about Jesus again!We can see their sweet and adorable faces, hug them, spend time with them and etc.
Tomorrow we are going to N. B. orphanage, Friday - K. orphanage, Saturday -K-v orphanage. WOW!
What a blessing! A big blessing is for us it is what God said to us in the Bible and He did it!

It reminds us a verse in the Bible:
"If we believe not, [yet] he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself." 2 Timothy 2:13 

Thanks to those who support our ministry! :) What an amazing God we have!

Is not our Lord surprising?

Thank you every one for prayers!Our lord Jesus Christ is great, good, amazing, wonderful, surprising, lovely, merciful and alive God!Oh, how is good God to all of us sinners!Today God showed us His mercy to us.We had amazing and such blessed trip to orphanage in Pugachovka!

There are  girls age 5-26(almost 30) who have Down`s syndrome live there.
These are poor and abandoned children who do not see their mommy and daddy.Most of them never have seen their parents.In this place children grow and live who do not have protection, love and understanding.

We had a wonderful time with kids!In the beginning we were in one room.We sang a song with kids with acts, have told to them Bible story about Birth of Jesus Christ.Also we had a puppet show.Oh how they enjoy it very much!

When children saw us they were so exciting that we could not becalm them in the beginning our meeting.After they were fine. They did hug us, kissed, asked  to stroke of their head.They are so precious!
Also we had an opportunity to sing psalms to employers of orphanage and preach the Gospel.It is amazing opportunity to do it until they care and watch of children! God blessed and employers listened attentively until Sasha preached.Michael our director could to winess to several employers of orphanage also.

 When we had finish the meeting in one room.Director let us take some children to another room where they could to color pictures and play games with us.Oh, how they were happy!!! They like to play with balls and difference games.We have try to play with everyone and that they feel themselves needy and that we love all of them.We had much fun and nice time with children!

During time what we have been with them they often called us  "mama" (mother or mammy on ukrainian) . The Michael our director they called papa(father or dad).How is sweet!

It was our first trip experiment  what we changed. Our program  was that spend more time with kids and change ways that make them happy and needy to someone in this world.

     Another blessing what we have.Director of orphanage let us to come more often and spend time with these kids.We are sooo happy! It is amazing blessing!
    But this orphanage is the most far away orphanages what we visit. It is means a trip to this orphanage is expensive most of all. We are not able to visit these kids often as we would like. Please, can you help us to visit children more often and bring if only a little light in their life to make them happy? Smallest amount what we need $65 for 1 trip. It is enough just for petrol as this orphanage far away and for a candy to children (one candy per child).

Another blessing what we have.God has blessed and we were able to help a little this orphanage in needs. We could to buy chemical stuff and diapers what children need often.
Also administration of orphanage asked us to help children with hats, summer shoes and winter boots.Also they need coats and jackets.

Really we had worry a little about this trip.We did not know what will happen, how children will react, or let us director come more often.God is amazing! He blessed us more than we expected!We are sooo glad!

Children love to hear God`s Word and ask difference questions about God.They wait all time to have a meeting like that.We try to do that to be their good Christian friends and give answer to their questions.

                                                         Lyuba with teens


In this time other part of team Alla, Nadya and Oksana had meeting with smaller children 6-11 years old.
We told  Bible history to children about 2 brothers Jacob and Esau.Also during lesson we sang song, have played games to learn Bible verse and remember better the Bible history.
Children liked very much to play act characters of Bible hero when we have  told to them Bible history.
Also  we fed to them Ukrainian borsch and piece of bread.Why? Bible says when Esau sold his day of birthright to Jacob because of  red pottage.Ukrainian borsch is red color also.We cooked and have fed children that they will remember this history better and because children hungry often in orphanages.

Dear Friends you need to see their hungry in same time happy eyes! How they were glad to eat it! We can not describe, you  need to see it! When they have done to eat, some children asked borsch more.It is not all!They still were hungry!We had few  lees of bread and children asked more bread also!

New blessing!

What an amazing visiting of orphans today we had! When we just came to territory of orphanage, children had seen us and were running to us to help bear our bags.We had 4 heavy bags again. :) It was nice!

In the beginning of lesson we congratulated few kids who had a Birthday  last time.
We have spoken about Joseph and his brothers today.We have learned a Bible verse Romans 8:28, sang a song, have played difference games and in the end have made a craft.
It was nice to hear some kids had learned the Bible verse what we  taught with them  last time.

Galatians 6:7 "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap".

The time with kids was wonderful!Everyone was happy!

                                          Oksana is enjoying her Birthday gift

                                   Kids are playing act characters of Bible history

This is the game we named it  "will clothe of Joseph". We wrote Bible verse by white crayons on picture.You can not see it on white paper.   Romans 8:28 "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose."

As there are children with special needs we made this verse more short for them.
 They have to find out which is the Bible verse and will read it when they will finish to paint clothes of Joseph.
We divided class for 4 groups.So, everyone was busy.

                                                 They really  enjoyed this game!

In the end of lesson children have made a craft.They have clothed a Joseph special color paper the way of cutoff turning. (stippling)

                                       Kids were happy  to "clothed of Joseph".

We had blessed time with kids!We are happy we could to have this time with orphans!We are glad to see smiles on their faces.They are so precious, so sweet, so darling! You can not that do not love them!

A next blessing what we have.The director of this orphanage is very friendly.He is glad to see us each time.It is blessing for us!
He invited us for tea.In Ukraine,it is means time to speak and have a little snack.
He asked us to help in some needs of orphanage.We are interesting in it but we are not able.But we can pray about it and ask the will of God.

A blessing is director let us to have meeting with older children!We are so glad of it!Director meets the needs to us all time.In same time we worry a little.We do not know or the children will want to have  meeting with us.Smaller kids are glad all time.We never had a problem with it there.We worry about older kids.Please, pray for children in this orphanage. God will help us, give the wisdom and everything for it. Thank you for each prayer!
