Lena and Dima Rozhke happened to be in Father's House by "accident". They heard about a new family program while they still lived in Gaivoron, where Dima carried a pastoral ministry in the local church. "We dreamed about having a big family with many children who will grow up and become ministers but we never thought that it will come true with us."
Six months ago God called Dima to missionary ministry in Vishneve, a town close to Father's House. They got a possibility to stay at the one of the new apartments in Father's House during the time they were looking for an apartment. On the last day before their departure from Father's House they were given a proposal to join the new program and become a "father" and a "mother". Thus family Roshke added seven more children to three of their own. A typical day for Dima and Lena starts at 5:30 am - they need to see their older children off, which go to vocational schools. After breakfast the younger children go to school, Lena along with the assistant, who helps the family, start cleaning and Dima goes to work. When the father comes back home from work, the children run to him to tell how their day went. Then everybody gathers together for prayer and Bible reading. Children love to live in real family since each one of them dreamed about a father and mother. They gladly help in the kitchen and clean up their rooms. Almost every Saturday and Sunday whole family goes on a mission trip. Thus the children learn to serve God in practice. Not only do the children now have wonderful parents but they also have grandparents in Gaivoron, whom they go to visit some times. Dima and Lena are happy that their dream came true and that they can serve the children of Father's House. The family has a need: they pray to have their own van which would be very helpful for their family and in the missionary work they do. ALSO: |
