Love in Action

In Romania women are active in many practical ways helping the poor. In Brasov Dr. Cristina Anca Descalescu gives health lectures and cooking classes as well as health screening. In Sfantu Gheroghe Michaela Balogh leads a team giving warm meals to homeless people. In Sarmas there is a group of women who prepare meals for 40 to 50 people each week and bring the food to the people at their homes. They also help with whatever else is needed: lighting a fire, dressing the children so that they can go to school and also with paperwork. In Targu Mures women have visited hospitals, giving away books, leaflets and CDs to patients and staff.
Also in Targu Mores Judit Bende leads a group called “Home Help for People in Need” which brings warm meals to 20 to 25 persons in their homes three times a week. This work is based on donations and volunteer work. They have even repaired and renovated apartments.
The women in Romania are creative in serving where help is needed. At the end of each year they distribute parcels to the needy. They make big efforts and volunteer to help people because the love of Christ constrains them. Praise God for women who are willing to help others in need!
