First, I would like to thank you all, who prayed and still pray about our family situation.Please, continue to pray!
Today was court.Everything was well, I think.The judge is serious lady.I like, as she led court. Everything is fine.But it was first court and in two months the 18 of September will be second court.Because I gave enough arguments that our mom is not guilty and the government is on her side.So, the new facts came out.I have to come next time for court with witnesses.Also a lawer of neighbors asked the judge to make one more court and they need to make some document against mom, prove her culpability in fire.
During the court and after, all the time the Lord gave me the perfect peace and calm in heart. I was rejoiced!It was such a GREAT blessing, peace in heart! I glorify and I thank the Lord for it!!! The Lord Jesus is soooo good and mercy!!!I felt your many prayers!Thanks a lot!
I don't know the end of this matter, than it will end, but I glorify and I thank the Lord for His presence which He shows through the peace and calm.
When I came back home, I sang and exulted, I rejoiced that the Lord nearby. I prayed and thanked the Lord for everything!
But it isn't acceptable for the Devil! His purpose to destroy our spirit and the peace, to intrude upon calm and that our hands and knees weakened in fear. The purpose of the Devil to destroy everything that only is possible, if only to achieve! He is mad and enraged, when sees Christians quiet and trusting to the Lord. I think, you agree with me. :)
So, after court, neighbors seriously threatened me. If I don't bring money or I will not pay, I won't live to second court. Yes, they threatened that will murder. They even told me where it will occur. :) Yes, that is not funny.But I`m not afraid, dear Friends. I do not know or you believe me. But the Lord gives a boldness or confidence and the perfect peace. Yes, it is not pleasant to hear this talk, etc. as it is the man, which taller me twice. And you never know what in the head of the person. But the Satan always frightens, threatens, gossips on children of God, buys, by other word does everything to knock down the Christian from a narrow way and to destroy his spirit. The devil is angry and doesn't wish what on this piece of the land, there was a house for homeless orphans. He doesn't wish that they would come to Jesus and were declined before Him in a repentance prayer. He hates, when the sinner saves.He is mad, when children of God make Lord`s will.He doesn't wish that orphans would find rest, calm and a consolation in Jesus.
In same time I don't want to be careless and thoughtless.
So, please, keep pray for our future court, what should be in two months.But especially that God protect our family from evil.Probably, I will go to a police.I do not know yet...But anyway, please, pray!!!Many thanks, sweet Friends!Love and hugs, to all :)
...if we will not help them...They can feel fear, lose hope, trust, feel lonely, forgotten and bitterness, if we don't give the helping hand and will not support...
Our hearts are broken...It`s so frustrating and so sadly.There no words to describe what we feel now...
Imagine, if you have to move to live in this house in a month or so...where nobody did not live for a long time and this house is uncared...
Where is broken stove, where no gas and no light...
Where is no doors and no furniture...
Where windows are broken and glasses are beaten.Imagine how it can be in cold season.But what if frost?..
There are broken walls, where no hope that some one would help you, because you do not have finances...
As the result you stay simply on the street...
But worst if a young lady is expecting a baby and she has to live with him in this house because she has not other way...
Dear Friends, I`m talking about orphaned girl, who had not a place where to live.And she lived everywhere she could to find a food and stay warm...Who stayed alone without any help, with fear and broken heart.
She lived with a one boy who promised to marriage her but it was only words...A time later she has found that she is expecting a baby from him and she had run away from him...in searching the way out and help.
I`m speaking about our beloved Valya whom we love dearly.Who became Christian several month ago.Who asked about forgiveness of her sins and accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Saviour.Who asked about protection and mercy.These all troubles led her to the Lord Jesus.
So, Valya is expecting a baby boy and has deliver of him in little more than month.In the end of the summer or in the beginning of autumn.Does she excited? for now,Yes!
We care and help Valya as much as we can.God loves her so much and blesses greatly, covering her daily needs.She is excited very much each, even a little blessing. And recently she said, Oh, I have so a lot for the last time!(She meant, the food, some clothes, personal care items). :)
So, we prepare for baby boy named Timothy, who has to come to this world very soon. :) Here a lot of busy days.Those, who have kids, should to know how it is.Especially when you expect your firstborn, so many worries and thoughts etc :) We prayed about baby bed and in two days God answered prayer.
Valya could not believe her Timothy will be asleep in this beautiful baby bed.She was sooooo happy and thrilled!!!
Isn`t it cute?We love it too. :)
Also Jesus sent some kitchen utensils to Valya and baby carrier for Timothy etc.We call it "kangaroo". Awesome blessing!
But we can't help with all needs and it breaks our hearts.
Dear Friends, our dear Valya, has to leave dormitory in one month(where she lives now). A person can live there only 3 months.But she has not at present where to go... The single place is the house about which she learned recently. All pictures are above, this pictures of her not of livable house, where she will be forced to live with the kid on hands.It`s horrible and heartbreaking...
No one can not help our dear sister in Christ in this situation...Her father died and her mother Valya did not see some years.She even does not know or she is alive.But today we spoke with neighbor and he said, a month ago, mother came to this house, looked on it and gone away...She lives on junkyard or junk heap...Oh, it is more than terrible! It simply has broken our hearts.On this week we are going to find her, if God`s will...
So, our decision was to ask YOU ALL to help Valya to save from street life.She can be on street again as several months ago, if we will not help...Imagine, how it awfully can be orphaned girl on street with baby on hands...
We prayed a lot and thought, looked for...I really do not know or is it a good place to ask you to help Valya.But we do not have other way to help her.Our goal is to raise $3500 to make a repair of her home.
This money will be spent for windows, doors, electricity, make furnace, paint for floor, to renew walls, to make a fence around the house (only on the one side of house) to make a veranda(small construction or corridor with walls, roof and windows). There are also possibility to construct a gas in home and water.The gas line is close to the house, same is with water.But it may cost expensive.We are not sure yet...We would like much and it`s real need as a baby will be soon there.It depends how the Lord will provide.It`s large amount and we pray for miracle.
Here, on the blog you would see update and pictures of progress of this project.
We know it`s huge work!But it`s NOTHING that to save our friend from street life!We are ready to work hard.Just need your help...
Also Valya has a brother who graduated this year from training school (after orphanage) and he already lives on the street.., asks people money for bread, he can not find a work...This is his part of house, same is in awful condition. :(
So, dear our Friends, we ask you very much with humbled our hearts, to help Valya.The situation is URGENT as you see, we have simply accounted days.That to save finances, we will do everything by our own hands.We ask you to pray hard that God will do a miracle we can raise necessary finances to help our dear sister in Christ and her baby Timothy.PLEASE, PLEASE, help if you can!
or use chip-in button on our blog.Thank you so much!!!
PLEASE, share about this need on social networks, by e-mail, on your blogs, everywhere it is possible.Thanks a lot!!!
******************************************
This is not all.We have one more sad story and urgent prayer request...
On picture below you see a 16 years old teen, who graduated orphanage several months ago and gave birth to sweet baby boy named Edik, just 2 weeks ago.Many people said that she would make abortion or sent the kid to baby house that would refuse him, after all she is so young, can't arrange the future etc. But Olga decided to give birth to the baby, in what that didn't become, how it will not be heavy.
We bought to her some food and personal care items.
So, here is this darling boy, precious creation of God.Isn`t he cute? :) He is sooooo sweet!!!
We are so proud of Olga, she made right decision!
Olga is orphan, who stay with little boy in hospital now because does NOT have a place where to live...Oh, my goodness!There are so many heartbreaking situations...
But Olga married and the kid has a father, who the orphan too.Sasha graduated a training school probably this year(I`m not sure) but anyway he is still teen.
It breaks our hearts that they are absolutely NOT ready to adult life, absolute knowing nothing about family life.They have to learn so many things how to live after orphanage.But we are HAPPY to help them!
We ask you to pray diligently for this young family. Olga accepted Jesus Christ when we had trips to graduates several months ago. She is also our sister in the Christ to whom the help and support is necessary. Sasha lost a job a few days ago. He earned $25.00 a week! If to be exact, $21.00. Both of them are undernourished now. Olga has an anemia now. She very pale and lost some weight . We pray to help with clothes and all necessary for the boy. Probably someone can send here.., for the newborn baby. It would be such blessing! Everything is necessary, clothes, small feeding bottles, diapers, nurseries cream, baby linens, by other word all that is necessary for the newborn. Olya absolutely doesn't have anything!
We now solve a question with housing for Sasha and Olya. There is a hope...(?)But I can't tell all details while precisely I will not know. I hope this Friday, everything I learn and I will let you know.
Probably someone would wish to sponsor them monthly or from time to time while they won't rise on feet...Even the one-time gift will be big joy for them.
Sasha now lives in very small room in a basement, where is damp and cold, sleeps on a floor, without a mattress, at his friend, which the orphan too. :(
They STILL ARE children.They really need our help!!!PLEASE, remeber in your daily prayers this young couple too!Many thanks, sweet Friends!!!
These all situations are so sad.We should help them with God`s help!!!That is why we pray to have a transition home for teens.Please, will you pray for these young families?
Please, pray for our family too.Tomorrow should be court.Our hope only on God. Thanks!
Dear Friends, brothers and sisters in Christ, our God is awesome and so good!!!I`m so happy and so excited to share with you some blessings we have lately.God hears your prayers and blesses BOM so greatly!
I even don`t know what the first blessing to say. :))) Ok.I will in sequence.
The first.Probably somewhere about a week we had huge traffic on our blog thanks to sister in Christ Susanna! Around thousand people could visit our blog just for TWO days and learn about these poor and neglected boys to whom the help is so necessary.Wow!
The second. As the result we have already some monthly sponsors who have opened the hearts, to be a part of this ministry and to help with needs of these precious boys.
The third. BOM become known worldwide. We have wonderful sponsors now not only in the USA, Canada but also in Australia. Can you believe it? It`s so exciting!
The fourth. Little by little but our ministry grows and extends. For several months already we have a one orphan, the beautiful girl Nastya sponsored by our dear friends.I really love how they said in one e-mail: "Nastya stole our hearts!"
They so deeply love and are correspondence with her! Yes, not just personal needs of these beautiful girl is met but she has such wonderful family, who loves her with all hearts and contacts with her through letters.Such a joy! Thank you, Duffy family!You make a difference in life of this sweet girl!
By the way.We are going to give a list of many children, whom are need sponsors, who not just covered their personal needs but could have contact through correspondence too.I really don`t know when we will do it because for lack of time.It`s huge work.But we really want, pray and believe kids will find those who would love them too. :)
The fifth. One of most our readable posts at one time about a graduated orphan. The traffic was such huge! This is our dear Valya.Do you know that she has a sponsor also? Praise God!
Our dear sister from Canada so greatly and wonderfully with such huge and kind heart cares about our new sister in Christ.That means Valya is not hungry every day, has necessary clothes and her daily needs are met too.You would see HOW Valya is happy!Awesome!Isn`t it?Thanks a lot, Aidan!
The sixth. Several weeks ago one of graduates of orphanages, accepted Jesus Christ as personal Savior! What a great blessing!!His name is Vova on the picture below.
The seventh. Now Valya and Vova prepare for a baptism and wish will join our Church and to become her part.
The eighth. Where Valya temporarily lives in a dormitory, we met Nadia who is also the orphan, the disabled person and also wishes to become a part of our Church Charity.
So, the three orphans will joined to our Church soon.What an awesome blessing!
We often visit teenagers in a dormitory, it is very small and there a person can live only three months...
On the picture below from the left to the right is Valya, bro.Misha, Vova, next Vova too and Nadya(who lives with Valya).
Besides that they visit Church services, brother Misha gives Bible meetings with them often.
Vova that in a dark shirt and light jeans, is not saved yet, but he is very much wishes to study the God's Word. He is so close to Jesus Christ's acceptance.Please pray that the Lord helped him to make this most important decision in his life. Thanks!
Well.I think that didn't forget about any else blessing and told you everything.
It`s so awesome to see what God is doing!We are so thrilled and so happy!It is surprising to see, HOW God expands our limits!It`s simply amazing!Thank you so much for all your prayers and support!We cherish EVERYONE of you and a bit of your help is SO much appreciated!!!We love you, Friends!
I`m so excited to share with you that God made a great miracle!It is inexplicable! It is such big joy and such thrilling!!!
Many of you prayed and still pray for the father of our brother Misha. We are so blessed to know and see that hearts of each of you were heavy in hard minutes and time of our director BОМ. We were so happy to see as many of you had spread this news when Misha`s father was dying and nobody expected that till this day he will be live. Here we could tell to you the latest news about the father. That he is still alive, but lost his mind and became mental sick. It broke our hearts, brother Misha very much suffered as couldn't help the father and he did everything that was in his forces. All of us, Church of alive God could only pray and ask Jesus to make His will in life of the father and our pastor. It seemed, better to leave in the heavens than so to suffer here... It caused all pain.
But will of Lord perfect, good and acceptable! The Lord makes miracles as well as thousands years ago. He is a strong God! He is amazing!. He is all-powerful. He is good and Holy. Which else god can make miracles as Jesus Christ, alive and raised God. Praise God!
Dear brothers and sisters in the Christ, dear Church, the Lord made the REAL MIRACLE about which anybody even to think and couldn't! The Lord completely healed the father of our brother Misha. The Lord on favor, returned his mind. Today he is completely healthy as physically and mental! What is a joy and delight! Doctors make a helpless gesture and can't explain that occurred. But there was miracle! The simple miracle! Is it possible to explain a miracle? That, what not under force to people, our Almighty and Omnipotent God is capable to make miracle. Praise the Lord!
Dear friends, look what can make prayers, what God can make miracle, when all come together in one spirit and ask about His favor.How our God is wonderful and great! My heart rejoices and the soul sings and exults! God used each of you to make this miracle. He heard your prayers! The heart of bro.Misha is overflowing with gratitude to every of you.He is so happy and amazed!He is speechless and overwhelmed.It`s AWESOME blessing!!!
"Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.
Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD." (Psalm 150)KJV
Here we asked you to pray for a court.It`s such a blessing to see how many people prayed together with us!It`s such a joy!Really.It warms our hearts and brings encouragement.Thank you so much, Friends!
Here is small updating that court weren't today. We waited an hour and a half, waiting for the response there will be court or not. But matter was adjourned because of that, our judge was occupied today by other case. Everything is just fine. :) I trust the Lord, He knows the best day and time. I had enough time to read the Bible, to pray and meditate. The Lord gave me the perfect peace in heart. Though when this morning I woke up, I started to worry a little. But when in prayer I told to the Lord. "Lord Jesus it is your land, it is your fight, I hand over everything in your hands". The God's peace filled my heart. So absolutely quiet I went, without knowing what will occur. But everything is all right, the Lord supervises everything.
So court adjourned for July 17 on 3.00 o'clock in the afternoon (the Ukrainian time). We very much ask you to continue to pray concerning this matter and to support us in a prayer. Thanks to your many and diligent prayers, the Lord made many miracles in our ministry and private life to that many of you are witnesses. We love you and we appreciate each of you. We are very blessed to know you and to have a part of this wonderful ministry.
In next post I will tell you that God made big and inexplicably miracle.So, coming back soon! :) Blessings!
This blog post is post of great prayer request and faith.This post about worries and troubles.But most important, this post of thinking, many prayers, dreams, joy, peace, seeking of God`s will and much more.I would like to tell you something great and I would love to open my heart before you, beloved our friends.
I never will forget this awful night. Here I couldn't tell anything to you precisely, as I only received shocking call and it was necessary to go urgently there, on a scene. I could only ask you strongly to pray. It is so wonderful to know and see, how many wonderful brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ prayed for our family.
When we arrived on the scene, I cried, heart was squeezed, I could hardly believe my own eyes, there was a shock and horror, I begged the Lord to stop it... I could not believe that the house burns. I cried and prayed... I couldn't understand why these awful things occur in our family. About 3 months to this awful case, our father died. It was huge shock as he died for few days, doctors fought for his life, but couldn't make it. It was awfully sick and is heartbreaking. I couldn't believe that father died in the face of and instantaneous.I still often cry, I miss him...Sadly.., we didn't live with him together as one family..,in one home... but I and my sister Oksana, we love him with all our hearts. The single consolation and a joy from the Lord, that he is now with the Lord in Heaven, is consoled and doesn't know grief and diseases and stays with Jesus forever.I wait a day when we will meet him in Heaven again.
Honestly, I even didn't think that feelings returned again. I write and tears are in eyes, the lump stay in throat.
At that time, when the house of mother burned down, I couldn't understand why the Lord allowed it.I understood that for any purpose... but it was so heavy to understand all this. But for what?The house isn't subject to restoration and to live there not possibly. Residuals of the house suit to demolish it only...
But as Bible says:"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."(Romans 8:28)KJV
Yes! It`s the TRUTH!!! "all things work together for good"! This verse helped me to endure many difficulties in my life. When it was heavy for me, I always returned and said to myself, you shall trust the Lord, all things work together for good, the Lord owes to make something wonderful. And it helped! The Lord made so MANY great and surprising miracles in my life!!!I`m in awe!Our Lord Jesus is SO good and so AWESOME!!!
The house burned down, but near the house there is a part of the land.Do you know that our mother gives this land to us?! It means that we can do there what we want. It means that we can build there the house for street children, for those who has no place to live after an orphanage graduation. It means that our dream can come true a some day! Wow!!!
Yes, this our desire and our burden. We prayed for it many years and decided to forget about it and even crossed out on our blog. Our desire was to create a home to save souls of these teenagers from awful life after the orphanage graduation. That to save them from this, from this and from much more. It seemed unrealizable dream. Honestly, I even stopped praying about it... Until the Lord didn't suppose to me on heart to give this property to Him. This part of the land already belongs to Him. In my heart and a special prayer before Him, I gave to the Lord Jesus, that God realized and created there what He wants what is in His plans and the purposes. I am so glad and excited! Yes, it seems crazy idea without having enough support even for orphanages. Yes, it seems impossible for us, but not for the Lord. Our God is rich and strong, all-powerful and good! We don't know how many will pass months and years while it becomes reality, but we trust.I believe with ALL my heart, excited and have peace in heart!
Yes, it`s huge work, a huge paper work, huge finances, many worries and headaches.But we are excited!It`s little by little, little by little, with God`s help, we would do it.We can build the house there for 10-15 or even 20 children!It would awesome blessing to give roof for those who do not have.It would be such great blessing to give a loving home, protection and care, who are needy.
I will tell to you my small secret. When I became a Christian, for years later I always dreamed and wanted, that on this ground that to make for the Lord. :) At that time I thought, it could be the Christian camp or something another. I didn't know, what exactly, I only had desire. But couldn't make it because it didn't belong to me. Now, it is already real, we know what we want, we have an image and we could make it with the God's help.
But I can't precisely tell, that it is wanted by the Lord. In total that I have and I know. The Lord speaks in His Word Bible, cares of orphans and to provide them a house or roof, wherever possible. I have huge desire to create this house. I don't know when and how it will be, but I have the perfect peace and calm, concerning this question. And I have vision, joy and excited.We see that God shows in our ministry that we should do something for these children, as they often need a help. Please pray together with us, that the Lord opened and showed, whether it is exact in His will. We need to know precisely His will. Because His will is good, acceptable and perfect.
After orphanage graduation I had many problems besides that I often was undernourished and had no necessary clothes. Thanks to Church and Christians, I rose on feet. Friends, I don`t know, where I would be today and how lived, if Christians didn't help me with my needs. I`m sure, my life, would be simply a nightmare. I often think about it. And I thank God for those people who helped me in due time. Now this is my desire and BOM dream to help those teenagers who get to similar situations after the orphanage graduation.
We ask you to pray because it`s very big project and it`s a lot of responsibility and we need your help in many prayers.Will you pray with us?
But there is one nuance and trouble we have now.The matter is that our mom lived in the house on two owners. During a fire not only our house suffered, but also partially a part of the house of neighbors.Now neighbors submitted on court to select the land of mother and to compensate their loss, despite that mother isn't guilty, there was an accident.Guilty of mom is unproven and her fault there absolutely aren't present.
Several months ago, after fire I very much was afraid of it and begged the Lord, that He wouldn't allow, that saved us and there was no court. Everything seemed normally and everything calmed down. But several weeks ago we learned about that, that on July 2 there will be a court. It is so funny to see, how heart and thoughts of the person changes. Before I was afraid, cried, begged God to protect our family from the evil.I begged the Lord that He didn't allow court. I told, the Lord it is not for me, I am not so strong to go through it, I am afraid, I don't know what to do, how to be etc.
Today, I probably even would like that this court would take place and that the Lord put an end to it to everything. Today I am not afraid, I have the perfect peace in heart and even joy. Yes, it not pleasant process etc. But the Lord gives me a peace in heart that helps to suffer and not to think everything of it often. I don't know than it will end and what decision will carry out court. But I already thank the Lord for the peace in heart and I trust that all from the Lord.What decision the court wouldn't carry out , I will accept everything as from the Lord. We ask you our dear friends, to pray for this court that shall be on July 2 (in two days). That this court was honest and fair on the relation of our family and neighbors.Please, we ask you to support us in many prayers that the Lord would protect us and helped us with the solution of this question. That the Lord would grant to wisdom and blessed process of court. Also that the name of Lord Jesus was glorified through this situation. We pray for salvation of souls of these neighbors that the Lord would help us to show His love and compassion, as though it was not heavy to us. We ask you to pray that the Lord would be there.Please, will you pray with us???We need many prayers now.Thanks!
Finally I can share with you about amazing blessing!We have been so busy these last days.But we are very excited and praise God!
I can tell you that we finished our last project Sweet Dreams of Orphans.It`s was awesome to see God`s hand and presence in so many different ways!We were thrilled and very happy to see how the Lord Jesus led and blessed generously!!!
As we couldn't find a bigger van, that for once to collect all mattresses and pillows, 2 days in a row were necessary to us to go to other city to take away and bring to the orphanage. We left early in the morning and came back late at nights tired and exhausted, BUT happy and pleased. :)
Here are pictures and video for the first day of our trip.
The luggage carrier of van was full.
Girls were so glad to our arrival again! Each of them wanted and hurried to help to unload the van.There was so much joy and delight!Wow!
Girls help to unload pillows.
It is how looked in the first day when we brought all pillows and a part of mattresses.Great!
Happy girls said goodbye and asked, will you arrive tomorrow to us? :)
Next day we brought a remaining part of mattresses.
It is how look already all mattresses and pillows.AWESOME!!! Isn`t it? It`s really HUGE blessing for the orphanage and these dear girls.
Look what surprising things your love and care of orphans can do, our dear friends. Look, how many joy, delight and admiration only small or big participation in life of the Ukrainian children can make. We are so warmly grateful to each of you for involvement in this magnificent project, for small and huge! Your care is surprising and great! Your involvement does life of these children on much better and brighter in this world.We are so happy and are amazed by such great God`s love!It`s simply AWESOME and HUGE blessing! Oh, my goodness!I can not tell HOW we are happy for these children!MANY and MANY and MANY thanks from bottom of our hearts!!!We pray and thank God for each of you.We glorify and praise God!He is SO good!!!
I`m so happy to tell you that our beloved girls received a new, warm and so beautiful blankets!We are so excited!
When we only arrived, girls, having seen us started to run towards to us, to kiss and hug. It was so joyful to see them again!And it was such sweet meeting!
Here is a wonderful blessing we could to bring to them at this time.It was such a joyful and excited to see the full baggage of our van.It`s such great blessing from the Lord!
Girls were very glad to help
After that we could communicate with girls a little.We had such heartwarming fellowship.There were such many laughter, smiles, hugs, joy, fun and sweet moments. It`s such a blessing to meet and see whom you love and who is dear to your heart.
I love these sweeties.Aren`t they lovely? :)
Well.The half of the project we already done.Tomorrow we are going to get mattresses and pillows and deliver to these girls again.We are so thrilled!Please, pray for our safety travels.It will take us 11-12 hours.
The greatest is heavier that now in Ukraine is very hot weather, +30-35`C(86-95 F), air is wet and to breathe very heavy. In our van there is no airconditioner and it troubles our trips when the van heats up and becomes overheated, feel as on a frying pan and are tired very quickly. We pray diligent that the Lord bless us and sent enough to set the air conditioner in van that much more will facilitate our trips and won't influence our health.
Workers of the orphanage were very grateful and admire! They warmly thanked and are glad that for one more need it is less at orphans now. There are a lot of needs...Praise God He cares of orphans so greatly!God is so good and awesome!!!
Do you believe in miracles? I do! I do believe that Jesus does miracles as thousands and thousands years ago. Because "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever." (Hebrews13:8)KJV People change, friends, job, time, circumstances, life, location, home, everything changes. But Jesus NEVER changes!!!He is faithful! He is Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace!
Many of you is known history about the five loaves and the two fishes. (Mark6:34-44)How Jesus multiplied it, made a great miracle, having fed five thousand people. There was only five loaves and the two small fishes! How it is possible to feed such great number of people, having only such smallness? I don't know how it is possibly. But I do believe. I simply believe, what tells the God's Word. It was simply a miracle! If we could understand by our mind, it any more wouldn't be a miracle. ;)
I like it:"And they did all eat, and were filled.And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes." (Mark 6:42-43)
Well. I have to tell you something.Something great and amazing!
God "multiplied" our means and we can help much MORE to orphaned girls, not only by mattresses and pillows! Throughout the long time we looked for mattresses at the acceptable price and that suited to beds of girls. Their beds still an old sample, from period of Soviet Union. We looked for so, that wasn't expensive and it could serve long. We found for 125 hryvnias($15.6) a piece. We were glad! As mattresses of the first-rate quality it is very expensive and they don't suit to beds of girls.
Having raised funds, we needed to organize everything that to acquire and provide these wonderful blessings that our dear children could have sweet dreams. But HOW we are happy and also delighted! How God miraculously suits everything and makes! God took us to the right people and a place, where we can acquire mattresses for 75 hryvnias($9.37)! Wow! We are so glad! We ordered, as this is large number. Here it is necessary to order everything, differently you won't find. And now mattresses sew at a factory, for our lovely girls. It means that we can buy now not only 90 mattresses, 90 pillows, but 84 blankets for the same girls! Oh, my!!!!!It`s awesome blessing! Isn`t it?
Interestingly and funny that we just were going to begin our following project in some weeks that to bless these orphans with soft and warm blankets. As their blankets are in an awful status too.But God ALREADY blessed and sent to buy enough blankets!Great!
I can't believe that we can already buy such large quantity of blankets!!! And we don't need to begin this project already. It is already in operation. Lord Jesus so miraculously suited everything and increased, caring of orphans. This is miracle! So, for $2.206 we can buy 90 new mattresses, 90 new pillows and 84 blankets!(For other $60 we are going to buy mattresses covers, as we have little more). Do you believe it?! This simply is HUGE blessing! In some days we are going to get and provide blankets to girls while mattresses and pillows are sewed at factory. We are so excited!We are sure that the director and administration of an orphanage will be shocked. ;) What awesome God we serve!!!
Honestly, I at all don't know from what to begin... My heart is broken and overwhelmed. I feel bitterness and pain... The lump is in a throat and tears are in eyes, I have not words... Friends, I simply have no words. I write and I delete. Then I type again. I can not find the correct words... Forgive, please... Loading this video and pictures, caused those feelings that I had when for the first time arrived to this mental institution. I had big shock, pain and heartache.Throughout the long time, months I couldn't come to the senses. It is awfully heart-breaking. Having visited this mental institution, you never will remain same person. Your heart changed forever... You will feel pain, tears, shock, broken heart, disappointment, a regret, helplessness and it is a lot of and a lot of another.
Our ministry consists in bringing the God's Word to orphans and cares of their emotional, physical, and spiritual needs, on how many it is possible, on how many the Lord allows.
Below, there are pictures and videos of the abandoned children, orphans with different special needs. It is not a secret that every year many children in these institutions die... Many of children that we saw, for a long time aren't present in the live. These children are left by the parents, some of them even never saw them and the word "mommy" or the "daddy" isn't familiar to them. They are lonely, helpless and defenseless...
Our help is necessary to them, Friends. Our protection, care and love is necessary to these poor souls.
These, God's precious creatures need the great help and tender care. Who will be cares as not we, children of God? Who will show them Christ love as not God's army, Christians?..
Sweet words and gentle hugs are necessary to them.
Touchings need to them, they are deprived of it...
The hope is necessary to these sweet boys
They feel lonely and neglected
I just wonder... will be their eyes sometime to shine with joy and happiness?
I love very much this verses:"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)KJV
So, we PLEAD you to help these needing orphans... Many of them can't be adopted unfortunately and will stay here for many years... We can not help with all needs, but something to do we are capable, only with God's help. We beg the Lord to help these poor and the abandoned children.We plead the Lord to make a difference in lives of these darling boys.
The director of this mental institution does everything what in his forces. But it is very frequent means simply insufficiently. Nannies work heavy to feed, clean, wash and look after these children. Often are only 2 nanny for 20 children.It is very hard physical work.
Do you know that about 5 hryvnias a day go on feed of an orphan in Ukraine?It`s $0.62 a day!Oh, it`s terrible!Often orphans simply survive...Here (unfortunately in Russian) one of directors of a small orphanage for 30 children, shares that the government gives 0.59 hryvnia a day ($0.07) for treatment of an orphan and 890 hryvnias ($111.25) a year, for clothes and footwear. :(
In this mental institution are 90 boys with different special needs, such as Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, Apert syndrome, blind, mental delay and others.If God gives you a wish, you can support the mental institution $0.5 a day.It`s $15 a month.Your finances will be directed to needs of this mental institution. Children will have necessary clothes, footwear, the clean bed, necessary food, diapers, means of cleaning.
We undertake to send a pictures when necessary things will be provided to these children or even a bill if necessary.
Our greatest desire the Lord send monthly sponsors to help with needs to these orphans. Please, prayerfully consider this question. If you unable to help. Please pray.Pray God will help and care of these needy boys.Please, share about this need.We will be VERY grateful for any, little bit help.Because the need is really big.Thank you so much, sweet Friends with all our hearts!!!
God bless you!

"Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?" (Jeremiah32:27)KJV
We have for you good and bad news. Good news, that prayers can do miracles. It indeed, our dear friends. Thank many your prayers the father of our brother Misha, is still alive. This is real miracle. Thank God! Neither doctors, nor friends, nobody can believe in it that he is still alive! Each time our pastor Misha goes on funeral to the father and each time he stand up on feet and he become better. At this time he started to eat and he started to stand up on feet too.
And bad news. He has a sick heart and as the result other illness joined. It seems that he has the hypoxia. Also he had a stroke.When his son arrived to him, his father raved and didn't understand that occurs, forgot names sometimes, behaved as the child. Therefore to his son Misha, it is necessary to look after him, to comb, feed, shave, dress, to wash etc.and stayed longer time there.
Here what brother Misha says:
"I understand that not for long remained, though doctors say that such senile status can be prolonged still any time.
Now he in such status that for me it become by pain to look at him, such helpless. Such to worry is very difficult, day after day, day after day.... And it passes day after day...; I shave him, I feed, I take him out under a hand on a yard (is very weakly), I dress, I sit with him at nights. Today had cut nails to him and nearly didn`t cry... After all I remember that once in the childhood he cut to me nails, and now I do to him, because he is unable. And sometimes I simply hug and say - "Father, I very much love you", and he is silent, probably, already understanding nothing about what I speak.So painfully that I nearby, and he doesn't feel joy from my presence, as earlier. It is difficult to tell and show the love, and it is so heavy to transfer it when your important words and your feelings to dear person are known only to you, and he doesn't know it, or - simply doesn't understand.
It`s heavy to look at him, but I love him, and he very much is dear to me. Difficult that this love isn't mutual, and is one way, with no strings attached . I love him, even if he doesn't understand it, or nearly doesn't understand. I understood, though, likely and not up to the end how we are beloved by the Christ. I understood more that the love to my father became even more strongly not is dependent on any consequences in his life. Though I am and in bitterness, but partly enjoy his presence... and probably in his last days..."
Our hearts are broken with bro.Misha and it hurts.It`s so heavy to carry this burden...
He is so deeply grateful for all your many prayers, e-mails and support!It gives him strength and peace in heart, even it`s hurts. It helps him to carry this burden and see love of Jesus, through your great Christian love and care.He so much appreciates it.Many thanks, sweet Friends.
Dear our beloved brothers and siters in Christ, Dear Church of Christ, we ask you to continue to pray for brother Misha and his father, cover them in many your prayers, God give them peace, comfort and provide all their needs they have.Please, pray God will do His will in their both lives, what He wants...We know God will do what is the best even it`s heavy and you do not understand.Please, pray...Thanks a lot!God bless you!
