Due to corona there is a few months delay..... but now it looks like that soon we will be able to start the feeding-the-elderly project for 10 elderly people in Vorniceni. The plan is to deliver a hot meal to 10 elderly / sick people five days a week. During the delivery, there is time for a small chat and a check how the people are doing. We have had contact with the social worker and a list of people who could use this help is being made. We would like to ask you to pray for: wisdom in setting up the project, finding the right delivery person, good cooperation with the local authorities, finding the right elderly/people in need for this project and a good start of the project. We hope and pray that this project will be a practical blessing and at the same time a good testimony to the people of the village.

Kerstseizoen/ Christmas season
De kinderen hier hebben momenteel kerstvakantie dus genoeg vrije tijd en daarom hebben we voor komende week 2 middagen kinderprogramma's gepland voor de kinderen uit Lozova en Vorniceni. In MD vieren mensen ook op 7 en 8 januari kerst dus gaan we op woensdagavond nog een keer kerstliederen zingen langs de deuren, dit keer in Lozova. We hopen en bidden dat alle activiteiten er toe leiden dat mensen ook inderdaad de geboorte van onze Heer zullen vieren en de reden zullen begrijpen waarom Hij kwam. Graag vragen we om gebed voor iedereen die de kerstboodschap heeft gehoord in de afgelopen weken.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In the past two weeks, many different Christmas and New Years activities have taken place in the church: we started the Christmas season with the distribution of 70+ food packages to people in Lozova and about 40 packages in Vorniceni. On Christmas Eve we went Christmas caroling with a group of young people in Vorniceni, on Saturday 26 December we had a special Christmas party for children in the church in Lozova and about 100 children came. On Sunday the 27th we celebrated Christmas in the church with everyone who attended the service and the children presented a special program they had prepared. On New Year's Eve, we had a prayer meeting to thank the Lord for the past year.
And because the children have Christmas holidays now and have lost of free time, we have planned 2 afternoons of children programs this coming week for the children from Lozova and Vorniceni. In MD people celebrate Christmas also on January 7 and 8, so we will go Christmas caroling again on Wednesday evening, this time in Lozova. We hope and pray that all the activities will help people to actually celebrate the birth of our Lord at Christmas and to understand the reason why He came. We would like to ask for your prayers for everyone who has heard the Christmas Message in the past weeks.

Kerstkado / Christmas present
As we prepare to celebrate Christmas in a couple of days, the church in Lozova was able in the last week to bless close to a 100 households with a food parcel. As the food parcels were handed out, also a short message was shared about what is actually celebrated with Christmas and the Gospel was preached. We pray that both the parcel as well as the message will be a blessing in the life of the people who received the help.
Terwijl we ons voorbereiden om over een paar dagen Kerst te vieren, heeft de kerk in Lozova vorige week zo'n 100 huishoudens kunnen zegenen met een voedselpakket. Tijdens het uitdelen van de voedselpakketten, werd er ook een kort verteld wat er eigenlijk met Kerst wordt gevierd en is het Evangelie uitgelegd. We bidden dat zowel het voedselpakket, als de Boodschap een zegen zullen zijn in het leven van de mensen die de hulp hebben ontvangen.
