"11 am start for journey to Maranata Children's Home in Hunedoara - a 3 hour journey one way - Praise God no snow this year for the journey!!. Pastor Jackie has had strong links with this Children's Home for many years. Giving thanks for the fellowship of Adina and her brother driver, Danny with whom we have a close bond. This is a well established Christian Children's Home run by Pastor Hada and his family. It is a poor area and many of the children have very difficult backgrounds. We give thanks for the staff that ensure that they are loved and feel secure. Some have contact with their parents who for a variety of reasons are not able to bring them up. The building also houses a medical centre and Pasta Hada runs a soup kitchen for poor families in an adjacent building.3 children at this home are currently sponsored via our Charity - we give thanks for the sponsors who support them. We have just received news that a further 2 sponsors (who have both worked in Romania) have come forward. We give God all the glory. However FURTHER SPONSORS ARE REQUIRED. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED THEN PLEASE CONTACT IRENE.
It was lovely to see smiling young faces all excited - who would think that a covered shoe box full of essentials and goodies could bring such joy. We see love abounding in God's grace. Relationships are built through a simple act of kindness. On way home we called with 2 poor families living under the same roof. One consists of 7 children including a set of triplets (seen here), whom Adina met in the hospital 3 years ago.
Big hugs to Danny and Adina for a safe journey".
