Romania Change?

There is a joke within the Lutheran community that asks..."how many Lutherans does it take to
change a light bulb"? And a true Lutheran will say CHANGE? Many of us fear change because it alters our comfort zone even though our future circumstances might be enhanced. As people we still fear it because it is change.

Well in Romania they have be calling for change that dates back to the Revolution of 1989. When on Christmas Day Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceausescu was executed and his government overthrown. This past week Romania had their most recent democratic elections and a new leader was elected. A leader that has promised change. Change that will help Romania get out of its 25 year drought of a communistic spirit that has damaged the countries ability to move forward.  CLICK HERE to read more about how the Romanian people are ready for change and how this change could help Romanian citizens stop the persecution of some of its people.

Below are just a couple clips of what the article covers.

Similarly, under Ceausescu, Romania leaned heavily on nationalism to shore up its legitimacy. Ceausescu’s communism was bombastic, outstripping that of every other communist country (save, perhaps, Albania). It set ethnic Romanians against minorities, including 1.6 million ethnic Hungarians, roughly 2 million Roma, ethnic Germans and other groups. This authoritarian chauvinism was amplified in the 1990s and 2000s, sometimes reaching fever pitch, courtesy of populist rabble-rousers.

He has much catching up to do. Jobs must be created so that Romanians need not go abroad to work, as millions have since the early 1990s. The rights and welfare of the Roma are one of the toughest nuts they have to crack. And Romanians must come to grips with the less savory elements of their past, including the country’s persecution of Jews and other minorities during World War II, and end the lionization of historic nationalists, including Ion Antonescu, Romania’s wartime leader and an unabashed anti-Semite.

Another Child Foundation prays every day for the Romanian government to see the goodness and transformational work that Fundatia Buckner is doing.

Another Church Partners with ACF to Transform Lives!

Walnut Community Bible Church in Walnut, Illinois has committed to helping Another Child Foundation Reach, Teach, and Transform lives of vulnerable children in 2015. WCBC will be the sixth church commit regular ongoing support of the work God has entrusted to ACF.

The Missions and Outreach Team said "Our prayer is that it will be a blessing to you, and your ministry, and that our great God in Heaven will multiply it to spread His Good News far and wide."

In July WCBC sent a team of 11 people to Romania to serve orphans at a beautiful mountain camp. Those 40 kids that were served during the 6 day camp will never forget the team members and the difference a simple 6 day camp can have on the outlook of an abandoned child. In return the kids gave a huge blessing to the team as they returned home with a different look on life.

Another Child is so thankful for all the churches who have decided to partner with us. We would also like to invite other members of congregations to bring our message of Reaching, Teaching, and Transforming lives of at-risk children to their church leadership as a way to make a huge difference in God's kingdom all over the globe. We pray ofter that more and more people come on board as supporters. We would love to have YOU help us help others



As always we would like to invite you to prayerfully consider adding Another Child to your list of support. You can simply CLICK HERE to donate.


Another Child Foundation would also like to wish each of you a safe and Merry Christmas season!
