Upsetting news at the orphanage

Our children's orphanage was not a good one. The director that was there did not treat the children right. Children who were 8, 10, 12, 15 16 years old were the size of babies. Our own boys very tiny for their age. Misha 5 years old 18 pounds and 28 inches. Judah who is 10 weighs a mere 25lbs. He likely will be smaller than his 5 year old sister. It is said the director is responsible for hundreds of childrens deaths. (Would not wanna be her on judgement day!)

The director was out and things were looking up. The kids were finally being fed. They even started to grow a little. Their teeth which were rotten and putrid were starting to get fixed and the new director was a complete God send.  Well satan did not want to see those kids thriving. Trouble began. She was met with resistance but still reports were good. We were all hopeful.

Today we found out that  "3 judges in Bulgaria ruled the old director of the orphanage in Pleven did not do anything "significant" to the children, and so, she will be re-instated as director of the orphanage, which also makes her guardian of all the children"

That is horrible! We all need to pray for these children. Pray for the families that are fundraising and paper chasing and working tirelessly to bring their kids home. Please help us reach our goal so we can travel. They expect I will be able to travel in January and that is not that far off!!! Our goal is to get 5000. before travel. We are at 2606. That just leaves 2394.00 left before January. God can do it! We still have a little over 10,000. needed to be fully funded.

Am I worried? No. If God is for us who can be against us? I know my God is able to do exceedingly above all we could ask or hope for. (Ephesians 3:20)
That does not mean I get to sit around and wait for manna from Heaven either. I want and need to do my part. But God is faithful. Paul and I both know this and believe it. I pray if you feel led to give that you would and that God would bless you 10x more than you gave.

Please pray for the safety of not only our children but all the other children in this orphanage. Pray that more families come forward to adopt the children left and that this horrible place will be shut down.

Be blessed
