Hello again dear friends !
We believe you have been praying for Daniel and us and we would love to share some updates on all.
1.Daniel is finally a “folder “ that means after so many weeks when DPC ( Department of child Protection) refused to take over his case ,they took our request into consideration .As people we saw no way out ..we still see that way ..Daniel’s dad went from last October and declare he refuses to have this baby or look after him in any way.. but DPC kept saying “we refuse to take him into custody “.
So right now.. our hope is the problem will be solved positive for Daniel –taken either into an orphanage or given toward adoption –even though we have no chance to adopt him (just because we have new regulations about adoptions and we can not adopt a baby from a different county and also we can not see the baby we will adopt .DPC will just give us a baby and we can not complain about it ..So knowing this we refused DPC offer).
Couple of days ago we got a phone call telling us that Daniel has been taken in Moldova by his dad(that is north east of Romania, few hundreds of miles away)..so he has been in 5 families within 10..all strangers to him.
Please pray that his situation will be solved quick ..and we do not mind if he is given to another family , but he needs this to happen fast due to his age and health problems ..
2.Us- looking for answer from the Lord…one of the questions still staying with us is “why took away the chance to hear the Gospel ,grow in a Christian home”
However we are trying to see why Daniel has been in our life ..and one of the things we have been challenged is to start a curriculum for prek children …Daniel had the chance for 2 months to hear God’s word ..we just wished it was more appropriate to his age . .. therefore we are committed to help Romanian kids form age of
3. Ministry: though things were hard …opportunities were provided to share the Good news with kids in our area after camps ended as it follows:
* 3 days of outreach at the camp property with gypsies kids coming from the gypsy camp not far away from us . There were from 40-60 kids attending each day. They learn Christian songs, heard each day a bible lesson ..and had plenty of fun.
* tent reach out –in the last weeks the tenet from Bucharest was again in our area and Vio could help with kids ministry in Rucar and Dragoslavele .
In both places were about 130 kids and they responded extremely well at the Gospel and all activities done for them…
4. Next…prayer * we are trying to prepare a curriculum that will be available for prek ministers all over Romania.Your prayers are appreciated as we can not do it in our strength and wisdom and the need in Romania for this age group is HUGE.
* training for Christmas projects .On Saturday we will start our meetings and training for Operation Christmas Child project .It is our prayer and hope that this year we will be blessed with Samaritean’s purse boxes for kids .
* first week of December we were asked to help training some young people from Dambovita county-our neighbors ,so they could work with children .It is our desire that all we share with them will bless many kids from this county .
Love
Estera & Vio
