Last night we visited little S and her family who live in a village outside the city. Adina met this family whilst volunteering at the baby hospital. Mum has been a Christian for 16 years but dad is not yet saved, although he does attend church. Mum is 39 and has dwarf syndrome, dad was a shepherd and they have a handicapped daughter aged 18 months. They so desperately wanted little S and she is deeply loved by her parents who live in a tiny room in very poor conditions in mother's house. Sadly grandma offers little support but we give thanks that they have Christian friends who do call regularly.
Little S is so tiny for her age and is unable to walk, She has been in hospital 3 times in the last year Please pray that God will provide for all their needs. They are very very poor and limited in how they can care for their sick daughter in such poor conditions We took around a shoe box gift and Adina provided a food parcel. RR will provide further food provision for Christmas.
The home of this family is difficult to find and we visited in the dark. On approaching the large village we prayed that God would direct our path. In Romania on cold dark nights most people do not venture out in the cold. However we turned into a side street and suddenly there was a young girl walking up the road so Adina on the off chance asked her whether she knew of this family. To our amazement Mariana told us she was a Christian and a friend of the family!! She jumped into the car and directed us straight to the house some distance away. All we could say is "Thank you Jesus" for answered prayer.
