Andrei Rares R Sponsor

We first met Rares and Maria when the local authorities asked us to offer the children a home. The siblings had witnessed emotional conflicts and fights between their parents. Being deprived of parental affection, poorly dressed, dirty, and hungry, they were in desperate need.

After the parents' divorce, the mother and her two children were shunned from their paternal grandmother's house, and things progressively worsened for Rares and Maria. Their father made it clear that he had no interest in his children, while their mother, lacking a stable home and finances, was in no position to take care of them properly. Left in the sporadic care of their neighbors and relatives, the children were often neglected, unsupervised, and without the most basic care at a very young age.

Despite all these obstacles, God opened the way for Maria and Rares to become a part of our Hand of Help family in 2013. The two siblings quickly adapted to their new life and friends, and we were overjoyed to see them grow harmoniously.

Rares is currently in the sixth grade and is passionate about sports. He plays baseball and participates in numerous competitions around the country. He is doing very well and has great results. He also plays the flute in our center's orchestra.

His father is currently working abroad, while his mother remarried. We are so thankful that God helped the siblings and their mother rekindle their relationship and start visiting each other.

Thank you for your love and support for these children. You are a blessing to our ministry!

Please lift Rares and his family before the throne of grace. May God work in their hearts, and may the Holy Spirit draw them unto salvation. May they find hope and peace in the knowledge of Christ and dedicate their lives to worshiping the Lord!
