Last year our friend and minibus driver Danny took us to visit a lovely family (mum, dad and 3 children) in an outlying village. Dad was home with 2 of the children and their grandmother. Mum at that time was in hospital in Cluj, a large city around 4 hours drive away. with little R who has a brain tumour - she is just 2 years and 2 months. I gave thanks that Danny supports the family with journeys to and from the hospital. Little R has had several expensive operations but we understand the tumour is still present. Mum and little R return to hospital in January.
We were overjoyed to see the complete family last night, including the gran who had also recently returned from hospital. The children were overjoyed with their shoe box gifts. Dad sings in a Christian group along with Danny Luca and writes all their music. This week they will release a CD and we plan to purchase a copy to share. Please join us in prayer for this family.
Adina has had a long friendship with a 20 old girl called Rebecca who was brought up in a State Orphanage until she was 11. Then she was offered a home by a lovely family who also took in a further 3 orphans in addition to their own daughter. Yesterday Rebecca came into the city by tram to join us at the Metanoia Church and to spend the day with the Luca family. She is still at school and such a lovely girl - incredibly beautiful with brown hair and blue blue eyes. Last night we took her home and met her family. They were so warm and inviting and we were touched to see everyone in such a relaxed setting sit around a large table just chatting - you could feel the love bouncing off them all in such a relaxed atmosphere We give thanks that these beautiful children with such traumatic backrounds have been placed in such a loving home. We enquired as to how much financial help the family get from the state and were amazed to find that the allocation was just 20 pounds per child per month ! Mum said God is their provision.
