New Thing is your love in action, inside the former Soviet Union

Curious about where NewThing.net came from?

A report from Doug Brendel to all who support or follow New Thing in Belarus...

Sometimes, when you do a small good thing...

BIGGER BETTER things happen!

New Thing has the joy of helping the “League of Good,” a network of shelters for homeless people in Minsk, Belarus.

A few weeks ago I introduced you to Tanya. She lost everything — but came to live and serve in one of the shelters.

A Belarusian gentleman saw the video from that photo report — and was inspired.

He has now provided a new apartment for the League of Good, big enough for 10 people — to be overseen by Tanya!

Friends of New Thing, often giving without even being asked, enabled our “Response of the Heart” team to provide everything Tanya would need for the new place:

Dishes, pots and pans, liquid soap and other dishwashing products, cleaning products, laundry detergent, an electric iron, toilet paper, personal hygiene items, and more.

Today, as we see how compassion and generosity can be beautifully multiplied, I can only say:

God bless all who give!

Thanks for journeying with New Thing!

More adventures to come!

Much love,

Doug Brendel
