Events in September 2015

          We knew that the first month of autumn, September will be busy, but still ... we never expected to be quite so full! The beauty is that it was filled only with pleasant events, except the end of the holidays and starting school, but with time, certainly children will realize that to be educated is a good thing!

          So, it was a month full of event more or less beautiful! HIS glory!

 

          So ... first adventure in September, has been participating for six days at a camp in Mures county, Salard place. Why do I tell an adventure? Because our children have had some unique experiences, first experienced in life by some and full of adrenaline. In total we were 40 people in this camp. Children at Casa Ray along with other children from different families and six supervisors.

Events in August 2015

 
          August: last summer month and  last month of holiday. We did not let it go anyway!
 
          "Knowing" that summer is almost over, a mischievous kitten has  stuck her claws in the pool  that cheered up the children this season. Now ... farewell pool ... we'll see how we'll solve the problem next summer.
 
          At the beginning of this month, the youth over 15 years went to a camp in Voroneţ for six days. They had a wonderful time there, felt very well together with other 70 young people.When they returned home, for a few days they told how how good they felt and we saw even some change between some of them.They have more patience with the small children, speak and behave and also play nicer. We are very pleased with the results of this camp.
 
          After they returned home, the friendships made in the camp did not break. During the rest of the holiday they visited each other quite often, talking and playing together.
 

Events in July 2015

 
         July was a month with many events that brought joy to the children.
 
         First joy was on July 4th, a big cake from which all those present ate. "Guilty" for this kindness were Andreea (17 years) and Catalina (one of the brides of Gavril family).
 
         On July 5th, we were visited by a Christian psychologist, who talked to all children. Even the toughest of them were very excited about the discussions in particular. This could only make us happy.
 
         Not long after this event, the children were surprised by another big surprise. For a long time they wanted their bicycles, and now is the time to make this dream come true. We received a German transport and bicycles for children, for all ages, were also there.

Events of June

            Month of June….a long-waited month.

            On June 1st it was the Child’s Day.This day was celebrated together with other 130 children in Izvoare village. All participants has a great time.They sang, listened to a story, played football and other games, had a few competitions, they had lunch together and received gifts. This day will surely remain in their memory.           

            Cristian graduated from elementary school, now entering a new phase. He will be among "the big ones". He managed to enter high school at auto-mechanic profile.

            Petrica and Alexandru graduated high school. Now Alexander will enroll in post secondary school and Pete had to say goodbye to us, as he opted to go to England to a brother of his, Roger, who also grew at Casa Ray.

Events in May

          In a house where many children live, no month can pass without different events, some pleasant, others less pleasant.

          May began with a pleasant event. We were invited to a church in Bacau. The city Moinesti is not unimportant for us, because is the place where Andrusca will spend the next few years, where she will live with her future husband. The children were very excited to visit Andrusca's next home.

          On our way to Bacau, we had the opportunity to see the house where one of the children, who is now at Casa Ray, lived. He lived in unimaginable conditions, but we are glad that now he has a different life.

          The 2nd, 4th, 6th and 10th of May were anniversary days at Casa Ray. Vlad, Antonio, Mihaela, Costi and Elena were "guilty" for the cakes of this month.

Events in April

          April was a very eventful month!!

         Since the beginning of the month we have seen an improvement in children's behavior. They gave their best to behave nicer to each other, but they have a lot of work in this respect, and besides this, they are interested in doing what is pleasing God. This can only make us happy!

          We are very satisfied that the children are interested in going to contests and extra curricular activities. They brought home lots of diplomas. Dodita Vasile is a very good poet and he took a diploma at school for composed poems.

          Cristian and Doina are two kids very hardworking. Because of this we thought to reward them buying them new clothes and shoes and we did this to spur others to follow their example.

          Unfortunately Constantin did not feel too well this month and had to go to hospital, where he remained hospitalized for several days. Thank God it was nothing serious and is now home with us.

Events of March

        This month has been a very pleasant event, which was really a first for Casa Ray. Andrusca (23 years), "our assistant", got engaged! The boy is from a county near us, Bacau, is a faithful boy; they really love each other and are happy together, and we also glad for them. Andrusca is a very special girl who deserves to be happy, and we are happy for her because she found fulfillment in this area.

         It is a great joy to raise a child from the age of 9 years and to be able to be there for him at this important event in life. The wedding will take place on June 28th.

         At the engagement 21 people took part , including: representatives of churches the two belong to,  Ionut's his parents (the groom) and two of his brothers, some children who grew up at Casa Ray and are now at their homes, all our family of course and the children from Casa Ray, who sang and rejoiced with Andrusca.

Events in February

          February ... finally the last month of winter!

          February started with a very gratifying event for us. Alexandru, one of our boys, of 18, decided to leave his life led by the example of Christ.

          We were very glad when we were visited by Georgeana and Diana, two girls who grew up at Casa Ray. They came to visit his two brothers, Vlad and Cristian, who are still at our center. Georgeana has two girls and Diana has a boy; they came with their children. It was a great joy for all to meet again.

         Virus diseases which filled the whole town did not spared us also. Ana and Ciprian have even needed hospitalization, and four other children (Laura, Nicu, Doina Constantin) had treatment at home, barely managing to get over a cold.

         For home treatment took care Andreea Manole, our girl who finishes the nursing college this year. And this we enjoy very much, that we can see the results of these years of study.

Events in January

We all, the employees, the volunteers and all the children of Casa Ray, entered the new year good, healthy and cheerful.

The first day of the year, high school students have spent the New Year's Eve in their families. There they played games and had some interesting discussions, and counsel from a girl who grew up here at us, but now she has her own family.

We did not have much snow this winter, it snowed a few days and melted very quickly. However, when it was snow, children took advantage and played with great pleasure.
