The spring is here! ..and even if the temperature does not look so clear, we started the spring-specific activities. The livestock was cleaned, the fertilizer was scattered in the garden, the solarium began to be reconditioned, some of the wood for the next winter was purchased, etc. (pictures 1-5)

          Because the temperatures were rather low for this period, the flowers were delayed to appear, so ... we felt a spring glimpse from the flowers created by the children on “Mărţişor” month. (pictures 6-9) Claudia, a visitor to the Ray House, from Switzerland, also took part in this activity. We spent together 3 beautiful days in which we were able to get to know each other better. (picture 10)

          After a six-month stay in America, Mihaela Anton returned to the country and we had the pleasure of spending three days with her. We pray that God will guide her steps and give her victory in all the plans she has. (picture 11)

          Regarding the blessings received at Casa Ray in this period, we are again overwhelmed by the goodness of God, who has moved different hearts to help us: some people from Suceava, whom we do not know personally, have made a great surprise to the children by offering them a bag of sweets and a set of new clothes, (picture 12-15), our good friend from Germany, Kathya, sent us again a pack of clothes (picture 16), also from the Pentecostal Church, children received gifts that came later than Christmas, but they were welcomed now J (picture 17)

          In the case of renovations / endowments, we also managed, with the help of House Ray's friends, to comply with the requirements of the Emergency Inspectorate and finally to get the authorization for which we worked a lot. In this sense, the building was equipped with lightning rod and anti-fire doors, the staircase was cleaned by flammable materials and stairs painted with fire-resistant paint. (pictures 18-21. Besides these, a very important step was the change of the carpentry on the ground floor and the digging of a well, which, the glory of the Lord, has 6 m of water. (pictures 22-24)

          In March, Ionela, Vasile and Gheorghita they had to be hospitalized in Iasi for more tests, given that their grandmother had TB, and one of the mother's concubines died recently because of this disease. Unfortunately, they had to spend about two weeks in the hospital because they were cold and treated for the cold. The tests came out well, but, preventively, they are being treated for 6 months. (picture 25)

         The celebrations of these two months were Cristina, Vasilica and Ionela, and the last two days overlapped with the Easter celebration, so we can say that we had holidays for "three days and three nights”. (pictures 26-30)

          And because the joy of resurrection is fresh in our hearts, we salute our heart with the greeting "Christ has revived”!
