Witnessing The Resurected Jesus for 20 Years!

  “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven  given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12

The Bread of Life Children’s Home Between 2003 – 2023

The journey for the Bread of Life Children’s Home started in the little town of Brosteni, Romania, in 2003 as a response to severe poverty and harmful environments for local children. A handful of people united their hearts and efforts to make a difference for the little ones.  

After arduous months of renovation, we rushed to open the home even though it was only partially complete. We still remember the day we brought in our first group of children. They were just as scared as we were. Little did we know how God’s plan for the Home in Brosteni would unfold. Gradually, over the years, we gained experience and knowledge to serve the children better.  

We give glory to God that for 20 years,   we have had the privilege to:  

  • Become a family of over 350 children between 2003 to 2023.  
  • Care of the needs of many widows and elderly in our area.  
  • Bring blessing and stability to 25 current staff members and their families, and more than 70 over the years.  
  • Receive scholarships for the education of our youth in a Christian high school.  
  • Represent 80% of the youth of the Good News church and actively serve in many positions within the church.  
  • See children benefit educationally, emotionally, and especially spiritually, which is our greatest joy

But everything changed when he arrived at the Bread of Life (BOL) Home.
