LOVE 4 THE CHILDREN

Vileyka at the end of the year!
Hello to our page readers! We want to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May God bless you in this year and give health and willing to serve Him more and more.
Together with our team we work in Vileyka’s orphanage and learn the Old Testament. I understand how important it is as children almost don’t know the Bible and God and we want to teach them in a simple way. We like doing it as we see that children have an interest to know God. I am sure that He will work in their hearts.
We have learnt the stories about Joseph and Moses. Children liked Joseph, his character and his fidelity to God. Children wanted to be like him having such traits of character as kindness, wisdom, patience in the situation when he became the second person after the pharaoh and especially when he forgave his brothers. The story about Moses wasn’t so interesting for children as that of the plague of Egypt. We told about Pasch as children didn’t know what it is.
On Christmas Eve we had the Advent Season and told the story of Christ’s birth. We solidified children’s knowledge by the trip to Minsk to church Bethlehem. Children had a wonderful opportunity to hear about Jesus from Christmas direction. During the performance we all sang “O, Holy Night”, heard the preach, had an amazing dinner and of course got presents that were collected by the members of the church. It was such a good time. Everybody liked that evening and we got hope that Jesus could be born in their hearts too. That would be the best gift for them.
That is how we spent the last month of this year. We hope that the next year will be fruitful for children and us. We hope we will be more helpful to these children.
