Rescued and Ready to Soar
Dear friend and partner, God has used your generosity to build something extraordinary in Romania. And right now, at the edge of a new school year, thirteen young people are standing at the most important threshold of their lives.
Our ministry at a glance
- Broșteni Children’s Home - A safe home and a devoted team for vulnerable children.
- 6 Ministry Feeding Centers - Serving hundreds of families with food, clothing, and school supplies.
- Youth Transition Program -
Education, skills & spiritual mentorship for teens aging out.
When children leave our Children’s Home in Broșteni, the journey doesn’t end — it deepens. The Youth Transition Program (YTP) exists precisely for this moment: to walk alongside them as they pursue an education or acquire the vocational skills that will open doors to a stable, independent future.
For nearly two decades, God has used this program as a bridge between a difficult past and a hopeful future.
1000+
Young people shaped — body, mind, and soul — since the YTP began Many now lead independent lives, have formed families, and are raising children in safety and dignity.
13
New teens set to join the YTP as this school year closes in late June Right now, they are interviewing and taking entrance exams for Logos Christian High School, which offers them scholarships.
A story that says it all.
Among those 13 is Sara B. — the youngest of nine siblings. Most of her brothers and sisters have passed through both our Children’s Home and the Youth Transition Program. What Bread of Life has meant for her family is almost beyond words.
Her parents, both facing long-term illness, live in a remote and impoverished village. Without intervention, the path for all nine children could have been devastating. Instead, several of Sara’s sisters are now married, thriving, and; the others are financially self-sufficient. What might appear ordinary to us — a young woman able to pay her own bills, and live in her own home — is, for this family, nothing short of a miracle.
“For me the BOL home is not just a place where I am protected. It is where we are like a family. It is where I have experienced peace, support and a new beginning.”
— Sara B., incoming YTP participant
As Sara steps into this new chapter, those words carry the weight of a family restored. And they remind us — and you — why this work matters so deeply.
The need is immediate and time-sensitive.
With 13 new teens about to join the YTP in late June, we need your partnership now. These young people have already shown remarkable courage — taking exams, interviewing, and daring to hope. They deserve to walk through the door that God has opened for them.
Every amount makes a difference. Whether you sponsor a teen fully, contribute toward supplies, or give what you can — you are investing in a life.
“And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” — Colossians 3:17
What a privilege it is to serve alongside you — mentoring these precious young people on their path toward Christ and toward a future full of dignity and purpose.
With deep gratitude and faith.
