Reach Romania

We are so thankful for the incredible volunteers who make our children's annual summer camps so special! They are true gems and godly examples for Romanian children otherwise unreached by the Gospel. ✝️🙏

Summer time is for playing, praying and pizza!
🌞🙏🍕
As our ministry's Board Chairman James prays over our children's pizza feast, it's clear that his words of thanks and praise are reaching their hearts. What a blessing!

This photo was taken 5 years ago when our Executive Director Chris and members of our Romanian team went to visit a number of orphaned children institutionalized in a local child placement center.

As of this month, that little boy in the blue shirt is now making his permanent home with our incredible House Parents on our farm in Lugoj. The saying "in His time" has a whole new meaning for us! 🙏

So thankful for God's goodness! 🙌

Through His intervention, two of our newer children were honored to receive the key for their 8th grade class. This is a very significant privilege and the boys' school counselor says that the improvements they've made in just the past 3 months are nothing short of miraculous.

Our ministry is blessed to be part of God's miracle and these children's lives. 👉 www.ReachRomania.com/help/

We proudly follow God's calling to raise up our children in true family environments. 🙏

Our committed pairs of House Parents strive to model Christ each day, husband and wife, father and mother, working together to cultivate love, faithfulness and truth in our children's hearts.

Please consider supporting their efforts, in both prayer and contribution. www.reachromania.com/help/

Our children were able to participate in a special project that not only provided them workforce training skills for the future but now allows them to play safely on a real court. We are so thankful to God and to the Lugoj community for this opportunity! 🏀🙌

We want to illuminate a very honest picture of what many of the orphaned children in our care have been through. This month's newsletter explains some of the critical issues with which they are coping 👇 https://bit.ly/3x2blsQ

Orphan Care: A Realistic Picture Friends, We often focus on delivering you the positive - success stories of the work we're accomplishing in Romania to care for God's orphaned and abandoned children. We should do that. It's encouraging work, a ministry worthy of our time and treasure, and the outcomes are most often spectacular. ...

Our House Parents work day in and day out to cultivate an atmosphere of warmth and love for the children in our care 👉 but did you also know they are phenomenal cooks? 😍

Fellowship and encouragement in faith, for our leadership and the children in our care, is so important. We're thankful for these opportunities to gather together in worship and raise up Romania's children in God's word.

Feeding hearts, souls and bellies! 😆

Lord God, thank you for the children in our care and the food we're able to provide them. Help us nourish their bodies, as well as their spirits, so that they may grow to know and follow you.

Did you know that children born on in Romania are considered good luck? And while that's wonderful, we live in the knowledge that every child born into this world is a blessing from God the Father. ❤️

To our extended family and friends in the United States, on this Holy Thursday, we wish you a very blessed Easter weekend in remembrance of Christ's love and sacrifice for our ultimate salvation. He is risen, indeed! 🙏✝️

Singing is such a big part of Romanian culture and our House Parents ensure that song is not only celebrated but passed down through the children in our charge.

We thank God for special moments like these, for His orphaned children under our roofs, and for the roofs over their sweet heads. 🙏

Praise God he was able to join everyone for a joint birthday celebration on the farm in Lugoj this month! 🎂🥳

1 Corinthians 13:13, the apostle Paul writes, “So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.”

How cool! A neighboring equine therapy non-profit in has given us a number of ponies to house on our property in Timis County. We're looking forward to the joy that caring for these animals will bring the children in our care.
Some benefits of therapy 🐴:
- Increased trust, self-esteem and social skills
- Reduced anxiety and depression
- Improved impulse control and communications skills
