Bible hour

Every week the Bread of Life staff gathers the children by age group for a time of singing, praying, and Bible stories. We call this time “Ora Biblica” or Bible Hour in English. For the youngest group we use colorful and interesting study aids and materials much as you would see in a Sunday School program in Europe or America. Recently we read the story of Jesus in the Temple at the young age of 12 talking to the teachers and elders. Using the example of the boy Jesus I explained to the children that it is important to seek the Lord even when you are young. As Jesus went to the temple so Christians today go to church. We naturally go to where God’s people are gathered to hear God’s word taught and receive encouragement to put his words into action. If you visit our children’s home during the Bible Hour you will see that the children are very lively and eager to participate. They ask questions and want to know more about the people and events that happened in ancient times.

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6

Little Miracles in the Middle of Winter

By Dorin Ciocan BOL Children’s Pastor • May 6, 2026
Winter in our region is long and bitterly cold. Snow, ice, and freezing temperatures make even the simple walk to school difficult — especially for children who only have thin summer shoes. At Bread of Life Children’s Home, we are dedicated to meeting the daily needs of the children in our care. During the winter months, heating, utilities, and food become urgent priorities. At times, because of these pressing expenses, replacing personal items like clothing or shoes must wait. Yet even in these moments, we see God working quietly behind the scenes.

The Silent Struggle of Winter

By Cezar Miron BOL Volunteer • May 6, 2026
In northeastern Romania, in Botoșani County, winter does not ask if anyone is ready. It comes suddenly and harshly, with long nights and a cold that seeps into the bones. For many elderly people in isolated villages, each day is a silent struggle — with the cold, with scarcity, with loneliness. Pensions are small, help is rare, and the silence inside their homes feels heavier than the frost outside. In Baranca, Hudești commune, we entered a home that has stayed with us. An almost 80-year-old man, struggling to stay mobile and weakened by illness, lives in very difficult conditions. Yet he is not alone — he cares for his 50-year-old son with a disability, completely dependent on him. A frail father who can barely move continues to carry the weight of caring for his child.

When Winter Should Be Ending… Survival Is Still a Fight

By Alin Panican BOL Co-founder • May 6, 2026
In March, spring begins to appear across America. Days grow longer. Temperatures rise. But in Eastern Europe, winter often lingers — and this year it has been one of the longest and harshest in recent memory. As winter stretches on, the hardest reality sets in. Food reserves are gone. Firewood is nearly finished. Strength is fading. What should be a season of transition instead becomes a test of endurance.
