Orphans Home Fire, a New Beggining

On the night of Thursday, November 17th, an accidental fire broke out at our transition home for girls here in Vinnitsa. The fire damage spread across all three floors of the home, calling for major renovations. The good news is that the family living in the home was evacuated, unharmed by the fire. Praise God! The three girls living in the transition home: Miraslava, Viktoria, and Svetlana are temporarily living with a family from the YWAM Vinnitsa community. The house parents from the transition home, Josh and Nina Cleaver, and their two children, Joni and Zeb, are staying at a hotel for now.
The girls transition home is a blessing from God, and it allows our staff here at YWAM Vinnitsa to directly impact the lives of the girls living there through daily life on life relationship, imparting practical skills and spiritual nourishment. Since Svetlana moved into the home, and then Miraslava and Viktoria this past August, God is allowing our orphan care ministry to see the fruit of our labor in the lives of these girls. We thank God for preserving the structure of the transition home. (The second building is the transition home for boys, which stands adjacent to the girls home).
In this challenging time of transition for us all, our team is united in prayer, and remains strong in our faith that God will provide the finances and the expertise needed. During the rebuilding phase, we aim to construct in a way that is energy efficient, and thereby cost effective in the long-term by upgrading to a hybrid heating system fueled by wood, and gas when needed. 
Ukraines orphans are considered in many ways an underclass but we see them with different eyes. We see them bursting with the potential to have purpose filled lives that will set them free from the dysfunctions that caused them to be placed in an orphanage in the first place. We see them shining through the darkness to change the attitudes of people and whole communities towards care for orphans and the needy.
We invite you to consider partnering financially with our orphan care ministry to fulfill this vision. Please pray over this need, and how you can be involved. 
Specifically the money will be spent on
- Renovating all fire, water and severely smoke damaged parts of the house. 
- Installng a new heating system and new plumbing.
-Purchase of new furnishings.

From the YWAM Vinnitsa family, we thank you and God bless!
