For countless orphan children across the land of Ukraine, the reality of life is grim and tragic. A young boy or girl ends up in a state-run orphanage because their parents have died or are too poverty-stricken to take care of them. Still others are taken away from their parents because of abuse, alcoholism or neglect, and placed in an orphanage. Once there, the meager provisions, inadequate clothing, and inadequate staffing take their toll on children who should normally be vibrant and happy. Many develop deep psychological scars and withdraw into themselves. When they turn 18, they leave the orphanage unprepared to face an uncertain world, which frequently sends an already shattered life into an endless, downward spiral.
Through your kindness the work amongst the children goes on. We employ 3 sisters from the assembly in Lutsk, 2 who take the children for Bible Study each day before seeing that the children eat their hot meal and 1 sister who daily visits the disabled children. These special needs children are provided with a food bag and even a short visit like this is a source of encouragement to them.
