BULGARIA — They are the outcasts of Eastern Europe: despised, mistrusted, and consigned to the most menial jobs. They’re Gypsies — and their children are the ones who suffer the most from their lowly status.

In many villages in Bulgaria, these Gypsy children are growing up in poverty that most Americans couldn’t even imagine. No running water. No electricity. No heat — even in freezing temperatures. Food is in desperately short supply.

“I was there, and I couldn’t believe the destitution I saw,” says Lars Dunberg. “The needs of the children I met broke my heart. I knew we had to do something to make sure these boys and girls have enough to eat this winter.”
That’s why Global Action is partnering with volunteers in Bulgaria to provide soup and other food for children throughout the winter months. The ministry will also provide Bibles that the volunteers will use to teach the children how to read.

“Without help, these boys and girls will face severe hunger this winter,” Lars continues. “That’s why we believe God is calling us to act — and why we’re calling upon caring Christians to join with us in reaching these precious children with nourishing food and Bibles.”

Impoverished Gypsy Children Face Severe Hunger This Winter

A letter from Lars Dunberg

I never saw children eat with such intensity . . . until I recently visited an impoverished Gypsy village in Bulgaria. These hungry kids used their bread to soak up every drop of soup, and I don’t think they left a crumb on the table.

I also saw the boys and girls waiting outside for their turn to eat . . . hoping against hope that there would still be enough soup for them. You could see the anxiety in their faces as they watched their friends scraping their bowls.

Some days when more children showed up than expected, the volunteers literally had to add water to the soup to make it stretch further.

My heart broke at what I saw -- and I can’t forget about these precious children. I have no doubt that God is calling us to provide physical and spiritual help for these hungry children who also don’t know about Jesus. But we can’t do it alone. That’s why I’m writing today and asking for your help.

These boys and girls are growing up in unspeakable poverty. They live in tiny hovels . . . with no heat, running water, or electricity. Without help, many parents will push their children into prostitution, begging, and stealing to survive.

Even worse, winter has now arrived Bulgaria. Temperatures are cold and can plummet below freezing at any moment. That’s why we’re planning to partner with local volunteers in Bulgaria

to make sure there’s enough soup and bread for every hungry child this winter. But we need your help to do it.

You can imagine how good a bowl of hot, nourishing soup would taste on a cold day -- and that’s what your support will help make possible. You’ll also help provide a Bible for each boy and girl! Volunteers will then use these Bibles to teach the children how to read. So the very first words they ever read will be God’s truth!

But we must move quickly. Winter has already begun in Bulgaria. We’ve got to act now to feed these hungry children. The good news is that it costs just $17.40 to feed a Gypsy child for a month and provide a Bible.

James 2:15-16 declares: Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, ‘Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,’ but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it?

So please send your generous gift as soon as possible to feed these children and provide Bibles.
