Needing Wood for Winter

Just as the warmth of God’s love surrounds us like a comforting embrace, the children can feel that embrace warmed by the firewood our faithful supporters provide each year. It is a tangible reminder of God’s care and provision.

Last winter, you helped us keep the Bread of Life Home, a sanctuary of warmth and comfort for the children in our care. As always, your support was a beacon of hope, and we are deeply grateful for your kindness.

As we prepare for this coming winter, we again need your help. Although Romania had a mild winter last year, allowing us to reserve some wood, we still need to replenish our supply to ensure no child is cold this year. We need to purchase ten truckloads of firewood to prepare for winter 2024. The price of firewood rose this year to $1110 per truckload.

We ask you to join us again this year to provide for the heating needs of the BOL Home. Your support enables us to secure the necessary firewood to keep the flames of hope burning bright. And your contribution, whether large or small, helps continue our mission of giving love and warmth to those in need.


Please consider donating to our firewood project today. Your contribution will make a tangible difference in the lives of those we serve, echoing Hebrews 13:16, “Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.”


We appreciate your support.

Darius’ Journey: A Story of Faith, Love, and Resilience Darius’ life has been shaped by resilience, unwavering faith, and the power of love.

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.
