Romania Welcomes the McDonnells!

After months of waiting, we are very happy to welcome the McDonnell Family to our staff here in Romania! The McDonnell family moved to Romania this week to serve with us for two years as the Directors of Residential Ministry. They will be focusing on the spiritual development of the children in our houses and also working with those in our mentor apartments. We are thankful to have a family that is excited to model a Christian family and home to our children and to be an example to them in this role.



We are also thankful that Jenny will be responsible for sponsorship communication for our child sponsors as Kelly transitions back to America later this month. If you are a child sponsor with us, more information about this is in the mail to you this week.



As you can see the kids were very excited to see not only Jeff & Jenny, but also little Jack, their son who is joining them on this adventure. We are so thankful to have the McDonnells with us! Please pray for them as they adjust to life in Romania, work on learning the language and get to know all the staff and children better. Pray that they would have wisdom in building relationships and pouring into the lives of the children and teens in our care.
