Completing the Youth Transition Program

The Bread of Life staff and supporters who keep the Youth Transition Program running feel a special sense of satisfaction when the “transition” is complete in the life of a young man or woman.  Cati has now come to that point in her life.  She recently married Mihai who is a Christian brother known to the ministry.  Together they are equipped for the responsibilities of adult life and are ready to build a Christian home.  Cati came to us from another Christian orphanage so we are by no means the only ones influencing  the direction of her life.  This reminds us of what Paul said in 1 Corinthians 3:  “ I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that plants anything, neither he that waters; but God who gives the increase.”  

We are proud of Cati who worked hard for years to overcome many obstacles.  We will continue to be there for Cati and Mihai as they enter a new chapter of their life together. We give glory to God for them. We hope our ministry family will share our excitement knowing that sacrifices by many supporters made this possible. In the business of saving children, we love to win, knowing “we did not run in vain nor fight with the wind.”  This is the end result when we find the time and resources to sustain and bless each other in Jesus’ name.

By Debora R. Brown Volunteer Sponsorship Director • May 26, 2025
Darius’ Journey: A Story of Faith, Love, and Resilience Darius’ life has been shaped by resilience, unwavering faith, and the power of love. His mother passed away when he was very young, leaving a void that shaped much of his child hood. Growing up in a family that moved frequently due to financial struggles, he learned to find joy in the simple things—playing outside with friends and making the most of each moment. But everything changed when he arrived at the Bread of Life (BOL) Home.
