With the help of the Lord we came to the end of spring. A rainy spring but blessed with health and peace for Casa Ray.

          Like every year, every season is marked by specific activities, and spring is recognized for planting all sorts of seeds. The Garden House Garden is now "up to date" in terms of gardening timing :) We are praying that God will now grow fruitful plants from small seeds. (pictures 1,2,3)

           We would like to thank specially to all those who have been involved in the project of changing doors and windows. There were enough pieces to replace, but with the help of the Lord, this project was completed in May. We are are looking forward to the next winter to feel the difference. (pictures 4 - 8)

          Special thanks to our German friends from the Oase Foundation, who have visited us and blessed us with a transport of furniture, clothing and other things for the house. Time passes its mark on everything, including furniture, which must be changed from time to time. We thank them for the time together spent together, for the shared experiences and for the love they are showing for us whenever they have the opportunity. (pictures 9 – 15)

          Because the school year is approaching the end, it has been marked by the kind of celebrations, banquets and excursions. Our children participated with joy in every activity, gathering precious memories for later. Dumitrita, Ionel, Madalin and Vasile will move to another stage in life, namely high school. They have one more step to take in June, respectively final examinations. We wish them success from all our hearts! (pictures 16 – 21)

          At another stage in life, Costi and Antonio also passed, who turned 18 in May. They do not change the form of education yet, but aspire to a driving license. We wish them also good luck! :) Besides the two, Elena also had her 10th anniversary, she turned 14, which gives her an Identity Card. (pictures 22–24)

          Changes, changes and again changes ….. With the help of God and His blessing, on the 20th of May, in the Gavril Matei and Madalina's family was born the fourth child, a little girl named Lidia Sefora. We thank all those who were with us. (pictures 25,26)

          We hug you dearly!
