Hospital or Home...

For the babies who are abandoned in Romania, it is often both. Those babies and toddlers who are not placed in foster care when abandoned here are placed in the hospital. We have two of our Romanian staff who go to one of these hospitals several days a week to minister to these infants and toddlers.

Many times when teams come to visit here in Romania, there are several ladies who want to go to the hospital to hold and rock babies or give a toddler some love and play time with interaction. This week was special for these little ones as even the men of the team ventured out and loved on them. It may have seemed strange to the nurses to see these three men walking in together and agreeing to wear the little white coats provided, but the children responded to them and had just a bit of what they all lack... time with a gentle and caring man. What a blessing.




Please continue to pray for these abandoned little ones. Pray for Rodica & Cris who work with them weekly. Pray that they will find safe homes and parents who will love and take care of them. In addition, pray that if God wishes to do this through international adoption, that the eyes of those in power would be opened, that the laws would change and the doors would open for families that would love to take these children in.
