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...

Where were you...

30 Years Ago Today?

New kitchenware provided by generous friends of New Thing arrived just in time
for the 30th anniversary of the Children’s Village orphanage!

Of course there was a huge party to celebrate, at the City Cultural Center.

Orphan family members and teachers performed, and local officials brought congratulations.

There were speeches, and music, and little kids ready to go home.

And the saucepots were a huge hit! Thanks to the 9 households who gave so generously!

The house parents specifically asked for this kitchenware as the single most needed item in the 15 homes for orphans in the Village.

It was like a U.S. wedding registry item: If you’re going to give a gift, please give us THIS!

Thanks for journeying with New Thing!

More adventures to come!

Much love,
