Bonus Pastor Foundation Newsletter

28 februari 2008

Roemenië

“I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father. And I lay down my life for the sheep.” (John 10, 14-15)

“Shepherds raise sheep, to profit from them: to eat their meat, to use their wool. The Good Shepherd, Jesus, gives His life as sacrifice for the sheep. Therefore for Him, every sheep is important, and He searches and cares for every lost sheep. He is our sole reliance. We are not feeding each other, and we can not help each other, He alone is the Good Shepherd. We, co-workers and addicts, all depend on His mercy.” (Levente Horváth – Sermon on Thanksgiving Day, Ozd)

Various

  • The majority of the Treatment Camp took place in February; details about it can be found in the January newsletter.
  • Two members of a German Lutheran monastic order and four young people having a one-year practice at the order visited Ozd. We had good fellowship and discussion.
  • Our relationship with the press has become very good. Last month we wrote a letter for almost all press organizations, and because of this, many newspapers and radio stations notified us that they would like to introduce the Bonus Pastor Foundation. We appeared in written press several times.
  • We have been continuing to follow-up on the farm more closely. At the end of the month a second inspection was carried out to check the tasks assigned to farm leadership in January and meet all employees.
  • We celebrated Thanksgiving Day at Ozd, on the 16th March. More details about the festivity in the next newsletter.
  • The number of clients in the Drug Therapy Centre is growing, which is a very good thing. At present we have 14 residents.
