Special Invitation to Join the Bread of Life Feeding Program

Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? Mathew 6:26

 

It is interesting to see the contrasts of our modern days. We have the pick of the technology era, where the internet connects us from Romania to the US or other places instantly, planes flying everywhere, electric cars that drive themselves, smartphones, drones, and so on. But, while having all of these, not too far from the developed towns of Romania, we find so many people struggling to meet the bare necessities of life. In these places, life seems to be stuck in a time hundreds of years ago. Problems of many kinds, from unemployment, sickness, or abandonment, threaten the lives of so many children and families.

We know God could miraculously take care of all of them, but he has equipped us as His body, to take care of each other. Just as it states in Ephesians 4:16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love. We believe we have the honor to be part of God’s body, helping and loving the weaker parts.

We are thankful for all those who have been responded to our calls in the past to get involved and help us get needed refrigerators, freezers, and a refrigerated vehicle to transport food. We have managed to purchase these and install them in three of our feeding centers. Isn’t it amazing to know that now over 100 children are blessed with food and spiritual guidance because of your involvement? Thank you!

As we continuously go into remote villages with aid and see the pressing need for these children to receive a nutritious meal each day, it is so hard to turn around and leave. The only thought that keeps us motivated is that by sharing these reports with you, we could soon come back and do something for them. We need $750 for each new feeding center to buy a refrigerator and freezer plus operating equipment. The monthly operation of a feeding center that feeds 100 children is around $340 (in addition to the food supplies we already have). Our urgent need is to open three more feeding centers.

We share this with our brothers and sisters, knowing that it is not clever wording that stirs your hearts, but God, who speaks to you and motivates you to become involved and make a difference. We are merely His messengers presenting the needs of the poor in Romania.

We thank you for reading our appeal and ask that you prayerfully consider partnering with us at Bread of Life Ministries. We are ready to clothe and feed God’s children, and together we can make a difference!

God bless you.

Help Us Prepare for a Warm Winter As spring arrives in the mountains of Broșteni, Romania, we are already looking ahead to the next winter. For most of us, staying warm is as simple as turning up the thermostat or paying the gas bill. But for the children at the Bread of Life Children’s Home, we must prepare for warmth—months in advance.

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.
