Thanks to the generosity of donors, some support has already been received for the 20 people with disabilities currently being cared for at Bobota Monastery. If you are moved to help, donations can be made at https://www.spcharity.org/donate/ with the designation “Bobota” Recently, they were able to enjoy a warm pizza lunch together, a simple gesture that brought much joy. However, much more help is still needed. Construction of a dedicated home has begun, and the foundation is already completed. Now they need our help to continue building this home. In addition to construction costs, ongoing support is urgently needed for food, clothing, medications, and other daily necessities. Together, we can give these 20 vulnerable people not only shelter, but hope, security, and a place to call home.
Thank you for your compassion and generosity. May God bless you and your families!

This project is more than the construction of a building. It is an investment in the future of the children, seniors, and families of Vladomira (Iasi county, Romania). If you are moved to help, donations can be made at https://www.spcharity.org/donate/ with the designation “Vladomira” This center will provide: Educational and after-school activities for children; Catechesis and spiritual formation programs; Community events and family support initiatives; A welcoming gathering place for seniors; Opportunities for volunteering and community involvement. We are grateful that, with God's help and the generosity of supporters, important progress has already been made: The old house, which was unsafe and beyond repair, has been demolished. The foundation for the new center has already been laid. Now they need our help to continue building. Every donation, no matter the amount, brings this vision closer to reality. Together, we can help create a place where children can learn, seniors can gather, families can find support, and the entire community can grow stronger in faith and fellowship. Please donate today! Thank you and God Bless!

Ana Maria is only 22 years old and is expecting her first child. She lives in Fundulea (Ilfov county), Romania, with her grandmother, who is ill and recently underwent surgery. The baby's father left after learning about the pregnancy, Ana Maria's mother abandoned her at birth, and her father lives abroad and is not involved in the family's life. If you are moved to help, donations can be made at https://www.spcharity.org/donate/ with the designation “ROUA.” Ana Maria came to ROUA being 15 weeks pregnant, asking for support so that she could carry her pregnancy to term. She completed 12 years of school but could not take the Baccalaureate exam because she had to work to support herself. Since then, ROUA has helped her with social counseling, information about her legal rights, pregnancy-related medical tests and investigations, and essential supplies for her baby. After the birth, ROUA plans to provide a monthly survival package for mother and child for six months and help Ana Maria obtain the state assistance available to them. Please donate today and help this young mother know that she does not have to face motherhood alone. Thank you, and God Bless!

Some of you have already prayed, donated, and shared Laura's story. Today, we are asking once again for your support as her difficult journey continues. Four years ago, Laura was diagnosed with cervical cancer. Since then, she has endured radiation, chemotherapy, metastases, multiple comas, and life-threatening complications. At one point, she weighed only 30 kg and was sent home in a wheelchair. But Laura refused to give up. We humbly ask for your continued support by making a donation at https://www.spcharity.org/donate/ and selecting “Laura” as the designation. Her two daughters became her strength through the darkest days. Today, Laura is still fighting, still recovering, and still holding on to hope. Please help us support this courageous mother as she continues her battle. Your donation, prayer, or share can make a real difference. Every donation matters. Let us be the miracle Laura needs once again. Together, let's help Laura continue her journey toward healing and remain with the daughters she loves so dearly. Thank you and God Bless!

A couple of weeks ago Orthodox Mission of Saint Theodora of Sihla took to the streets of downtown Bucaramanga (Columbia) to share faith, hope, and a meal made with love. On this occasion, they went to the Plaza Central area to distribute 100 delicious chicken sandwiches, each accompanied by a glass of juice, to people living on the streets and other passersby in the area. We invite you to support this project by making a donation at https://www.spcharity.org/donate/ with the designation “Latin” The need remains urgent, as many families connected to our parishes in Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, and Chile continue to struggle with severe food insecurity and daily uncertainty. With your continued support, we can provide a weekly meal to more than 400 souls across South America. Please consider making a donation today. Thank you for your kindness and may God bless you abundantly!
