Programs described in its return (2)
- $54,945 spent. FAMILY program and orphan outreach: This program aids Sufficient Bread Ministry's ("SBM") purpose by reaching out to the orphaned youth and street children of Romania. The focus is the spiritual growth of the children through discipleship and prayer. This program consists of weekly visits to the Betania orphanage located in Uricani. These visits consist of sharing the Gospel with the children, helping with homework and organizing games and sports for the children. This program also offers food, clothing, and needed school supplies to the children. Yearly, we take a group of youth/orphans on a camping trip into the local mountains to learn the values of leadership, trust, and the wonderful news of the Gospel. SBM ministers to 25 children at Betania Orphanage.
- $27,472 spent. POOR AND NEEDY OUTREACH: We also minister to the poor and needy through various means, such as the distribution of clothing, food, and finances, as the needs are made known to us. As we provide for their physical needs, we also share the love of Jesus Christ with them.
