Like manna falling from heaven

Home » Field Reports » FIELD REPORT – 2019 / Vol 23 / Issue 1 – Special » Like manna falling from heaven

Romania is one of the newest members of the Common Market, the EU.  It is also ranked last in Eastern Europe for quality of life.

Making ends meet is so difficult that 4 million people have left the country since its revolution in 1990 to find work in other European countries.  Romania is smaller now than when it was established as a modern state 100 years ago.

Outside of a few growth areas, poverty runs deep.  Feed The Hungry provides food for feeding centres and orphanages in some of the poorest regions.

As you drive through villages where we operate feeding centres, you will be shocked to see children walking barefoot and naked because their families cannot afford shoes or clothes.

Old, ragged wagons make their way through the streets.  It’s as if you were walking through some of the least developed places we see in Africa.

Life is difficult for the Bazan family.  Reliable work is hard to find so they have to scrape by with the little they can earn from odd jobs.

They are one of the thousands of households that qualify for government assistance, which only amounts to $20 per month.  They shared that the day we started the feeding program in their town of Buda, it was like “manna fell from Heaven in the Old Testament”.

Many of the village children would go to school without eating, and very little food awaited them when they arrived home.

It is not by accident that we operate most of our feeding programs in churches.  The children who attend the programs are also taught a Bible lesson during the meal.

Often times, parents will come with the children to hear the message as well.

The food we offer is for today, but receiving God’s Word is what makes the difference for their future and eternity.

Please pray for the Buda feeding centre, the Bazan family and families like them who need to receive Jesus as Saviour and grow in Him.

FEED THE HUNGRY, part of LeSEA Global, is a non-profit Christian organisation dedicated to a vision of a world where people, and in particular children, no longer suffer crippling hunger.
