Our village family.

In past newsletters we have told you about our Meals on Wheels program which we run from the Bread of Life Orphanage. The older girls and our kitchen staff cook and prepare meals for some of the poor elderly in our village. The older boys deliver these meals on their bicycles. The children bring to these poor and lonely folks more than just food. They bring their time, their youthful presence, and their friendship. We encourage the children to be good ambassadors for Christ. The children in our program come from poor homes themselves, often worse than the ones they are now delivering aid to. The boys and girls in our children’s home do not feel poor when they are giving and bringing relief to others. Anitei Vasile is one of the elderly people the children visit. He lives by himself trying to get by on a tiny amount he receives from the government. For Vasile and many like him the children have become like family. They give the children just a smile and simple Thank You. In addition to the elderly we also take care of the poor families in our area that really need our help to make it. For all of these God receives the glory as it should be.

Child with shoebox gift
By BOL Team • September 24, 2026
There is something special about watching a child open a Christmas gift.  I have had the privilege of watching children receive Christmas shoeboxes many times over the years, but the excitement never gets old. A carefully wrapped box lands in their hands, and suddenly the air fills with anticipation and curiosity. Then you see smiles that seem to grow bigger with every item they discover. For some of these children, receiving a gift is not something they expect. They didn't earn it. They didn't do anything to deserve it. Someone they may never meet chose to give because they wanted that child to experience the joy of Christmas. Perhaps that is one reason these moments touch me so deeply.

What Is the BOL Christian Center? Some dreams start small. Ours started as an impossible one — a home in Bucharest where teenagers from broken, poverty stricken backgrounds could finally have a stable place to live, grow, and become who God made them to be.

At the beginning of the journey, the word that best described these kids was helplessness. When you start life in an environment shaped by severe hardship, the future feels less like a promise and more like a threat. For the five young people in our community who graduated high school this summer, the starting line was a painful one. Behind their eyes lay realities too heavy for any child to carry: a girl who had to find her courage within an abusive family, and boys who grew up without the warm embrace of a mother. For them, education and finishing school seemed like a distant dream.
