Prayer Requests

We want to thank you for supporting Larisa in prayer. Her skin surgeries to disconnect the united middle fingers on both hands went excellently. The right hand was done first to allow Larisa to complete her paperwork for the close of the school year, and then the left hand was done. She is recovering very well and is happy to look like any other child. She will not be embarrassed again due to her appearance. This is one of the ways we show God’s love by taking care of all the needs of the children …body, mind, and soul.

Please join us in prayer for our first international food delivery. We are preparing for our first donation to our Romanian brothers who live in Moldova in the coming weeks. Through you, God has blessed BOL to share the food we receive with His poor people in neighboring countries. We need divine guidance as we navigate the bureaucracy in this ex-communist country.

Recently Europe has been hit by massive rain. The town of Campeni, in Alba county, has been among the most severely hurt places. The flood was so intense that it took cars away and destroyed houses. After speaking with our local pastor, we learned that hundreds of people lost their homes on the poor side of the town. We want to encourage you to pray for them during this time. We are quickly putting together a shipment of aid with food, hygiene items, and clothing to send their way. We do not directly know many of these people, but they are God’s children, and we must reach out to them.

Thank you for your interest in Bread of Life Ministries. We have been able to accomplish a lot with the help of our supporters around the world. There is still more for us to do. Please prayerfully consider how you might help support Bread of Life as we provide support to children and families in need.

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.
