Greeting you my friends!
January turn out with bright impressions and memories: kids faces, their smile, happiness and a fire full of hope, wish burning up in their hearts. This month we could of work w
ith kids from Belinichу boarding school. No matter that it was an eve and vacations, many kids
were supposed to stay for the whole period in the boarding school. Year by year passing by, and they are waiting for the miracle to happen- that someone will take them home. Sometimes “home”-its battered word and mostly child doesn’t give it any importance? But those kids are dreaming and praying to leave the boarding school even for the events .They in need of love and care, like a kids, who has a family.
9th of January with the team more that 30 people went to organize special days
for kids. Kids watched a big Christmas show invo
lving adults and kids. The atmosphere that day was really festive. Kids seen not only the performance but also they could of hear a new Christian songs from a kids choir? Also could play a games and talk to volunteers ? who organized that for them. The meeting ended with a nice thing- giving presents.
Throughout the month, we came to the guys every Thursday, despite the snow and sometimes big snowfall. Bible lessons were held as a teenage, so as babies. Older children raised such topics as: “Lies”, “theft” and “laziness.” But the kids con
tinued to get acquaint
ed with the biblical stories of the New Testament: “The story of the rich man and Lazarus,” “About 10 lepers” and “prayer of the Pharisee and the publican.”
Despite the diagnosis of children, we see how the guys are changing for the better side, especially in relationships with each other and also with teachers. Children learn the skills of the Christian life. It remains to pray and believe that they will not 
forget what they hear on our lessons and will take this knowledge’s in their life, even when they will go on their own life, without the boarding. And, perhaps, I wont be mistaken if I say that the main thing in our travels – is changed life of an orphaned child, in which there is a believe that anything is ti happen in life- there is nothing impossible for God!
Hello!
Visits to Rudensk in January started from a big theatrical performance about the Birth of Jesus Christ. The performance gathered all the children and teachers of the orphanage. Afterwards every child received a long-awaited
Christmas present.
Besides that, we also held a guy’s party and a girl’s party this month. Together with boys we discussed how important it is to strive for something in life. We were thinking about th
e necessity of dreaming more, setting more goals in life and wanting to achieve them. We discussed that often we are wasting our time and that one should listen to the advice of the elders, 
and that it is also possible to achieve the best results only through hard work. Together with girls we were discussing abortion and its consequences. We read real life stories where women shared the experience they had to live through and how badly they regret doing the abortion.
During next meetings we discussed themes “lies” and “theft”. We showed to the children that after an easy benefit there comes a bitter forfeit. Temporary success gained from lies or theft returnes 
as a punishment not only form people but also from God. We tried to vary every meeting with singing, playing games, watching video clips. We also have a good tradition to congratulate the birthday person. Everyone says their wishes to the birthday person and after that we pray for him/her altogether.
More and more new children who had not appeared before come to visit our meetings. We try to create pleasant atmosphere during our discussions to make the meetings not only interesting but also useful. We see that the relationships between children become better. They quarrel less, respect and support each other more. We are very glad that God lets us continue going to the orphanages in spite of facing various difficulties both financial and spiritual. But the work continues, and we thank God and those who pray for us. Thank you for participating in this ministry!
In January: “Christmas action for disabled children”
Posted: January 7, 2016 by Dobr9k in Uncategorized
A Christmas action for disabled children will be held in Minsk on January, 10 in 2016. A special Christmas theatrical performance will be organised for children after which they will get presents.
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.
Our ministry at Smilovichi orphanage goes on, in spite of the new administration at the 
orphanage. Thanks God, He makes people’s hearts favorable to us! We are also grateful for those who support our ministry financially! This month we were able to help them 
bringing the things for washing and cleaning.
At the moment there came eight children more. The children got acquainted with new biblical stories such as ‘The parable about the lost sheep’ and ‘the prayer of a Pharisee and a tax collector in the temple’. The first story is a good example of God’s care for each person. The second one teaches that God accepts us as we are, if we admit our fault before Him and ask to forgive our sins. The children participa
ted quite actively in the biblical lessons and answered the questions. For there are mostly small children at the 
orphanage now, we learnt new song songs with motions and prepared for celebrating Christmas. At one of the meetings we could demonstrate the kids a Christian cartoon and then we discussed its sense and morals, thus cultivating in them good values. Also, according to our good tradition we had crafts where both boys and girls took a very active part in this. Moreover, we noticed that due to crafts the children become more attentive and
diligent.
We are very glad 
when some of the children want to pray. Alina prays to the Lord most often and her main wish is returning to her mother.
We finished up December in a cheerful way! We invited a puppet theatre and they told us a bright Christmas story. At the end the children got their long-expected gifts! Glory to God for this evening because it was a great pleasure for us to see their happy eyes!
LOVE 4 THE CHILDREN
