Dear brothers and sisters!
Here is one SHORT (i promise i'll try to make them short now) newsletter with life story of one boy who need your prayer!
Name: Fedor (Fedya) Age: 14 (already) Family: Fedya's mom left him when he was about 10. she has some problems with her mind probably, but she decided to left her son and family and to live in the nunnery (cloister). Fedya's biologica father doesn't live with them. when boy abous about 8 years old he spent a lot of time on the streets already and there he met man named Vladimir. he bacame friends with that guy and then he made them met with his mother. they married and Fedya strted to call Vladimir "Daddy". he still calls him so though he lives outside and escaped from home.
Life story: Fedya escaped from home since early ages. at 8 he was toxicoman already and smelled glue. tired of him and thinking that boy has some mental problem she took Fedya to the hospital for mentally ill people. first time Fedya spent there 2 months. when he went out from that awfull place (i know that this place is awfull because i prcaticed and worked there for some time whn i was studying Psychlogy in the univercity. that place looks more like prison and if you once get there you will be mentally ill after this hospital for ure. tehy use very strong drugs there which switch of patients at all. they gave that drugs to Fedya too). so when he went out from there he escaped from home again and again he was taken to the hospital though he cried and asked no. when he was in the hospital for the 3d time already once doctors came and said: "Your mom rejected you. here are the papers. she decied to live in the nunnery (cloister)" he started to cery and shout. they immdiately gave him course of super-strong medication and which he switched off for couple week or even mounths. we can only hope that it didin't damage his brains a lot. so when mom rejected him, his dad promised that he will not take him to the hospital again. but Fedya escaped again and again and also strted to steal things. so father became out of patience and gave Fedya to the shelter for kids. from that shelter they gave him to that hospital gain. dad took him from there. but after some time he again became tired of Fedya and gave him to the hospital again. after that Fedya had no trust to anybody. dad haven't keep his promise (though Fedya haven't too).
how we met: we met Fedya during one of our feeding trips. we met him and his frined near MacDonalds asking for money. we gave them soup and asked their names. Fedya said his name is Sergei. only next time when we came he called me aside and said that he lied to me because couldn't rust but his real name is Fedya. He told us his story. he live on the street for more than 1 month since he escaped last time. it was few days before New Year. He took his fathers' very expensive phone and went for a walk. he said elder boys took that phone but we don't know if t's true or not, bt anyway he has no phone now and he is afraid to come back home now.
work with Fedya: we meet him 2 times a week in feeding trip and also he started to visit our street kids meetings in the church. he was interested in many things and asked questions. and he looked for any love and some person to trust. since last week he also strted to visit our day center. it became like a second (or even first) home for him - he studied there Bible lessons, learnt how to cook, to help with household chires. he liked to play games very much and he is very good in hide and seek. once he hide so well that we couldn't find him for half an hour. he was on the book shelf!!! during that time we planned vistation to his "father" Vladimir. we went there and talked with him - he is not alcholic (as most of the parents of our street kids), not a drug user. he works. but he is really tired that Fedya escapes all the time. he made decision and give Fedya to the shelter or to the orphange because he doesn't wwant to care about him. when Fedya knew that he was shocked and wanted to cry. though it wasn't surprise for him. now he still tries to keep contact with dad, calls him sometimes but he doesn't want to come back home.
Pray for his life. we don't know where will he live. Orphanges all over the Russia are planned to be closed very soon so they are looking for families for children. we would like good family for Fedya or even some belivers family who would be ready to adopt him, inspite of all his demerits. His soul is precious for God and he is teachable and very cute boy. He misses mother's love and cries about her a lot. Pray also for the safety of his life - he tried to suicide few times already. Today he had a birthday - now he is 14! as he said:"Now i am ALMOST repsponsible for myself, almost adult" :) during our feeding trip we met him and his friends - gave him a cake and ballon. and the biggest what we could present to him - it was a prayer for him. may God be glorified through the life of this boy!
