Dear CLC Family,

Please take the time to read the letter from CLC Family Members, Jeanne and Steve Cowan who now live in Ireland for another year or so and who are our lead connection to Jesus Hope of Romania.   Their letter and the details following all concern Alexandra pictured above.   I send you their letter, a thank you letter from JHOR, a summary of Alexandra’s last few months and a bio of the life background from which she was rescued, with the belief that your prayers make a difference and with the thought that some of you might want to help in some way.      God bless, Jeff    

From Steve and Jeanne

Hi Everyone,

Below you will read about Alexandra and Florin, a brother and sister rescued by God through Jesus Hope of Romania from a horrible ‘home’ life.    

Steve and I were there that weekend when they came to the orphanage.  It was a miracle.  God has done so much in their lives.

I do know they are very grateful for the help that CLC has given to allow Alexandra to have these new hearing aids.  They will be stimulating her auditory nerves and hopefully allowing her to hear something.

We had been working with a team over here (Ireland where we are now living) of audiologist specialists as well and I hope to take one of them with me to meet her in person in Romania on November 18 so that they can continue to follow up this process.

If this hearing aid does not work then the only thing left would be an implant.  So we are praying for a miracle.  Again thank you goes to all the generous hearts and people who have given to make this possible for Alexandra to have a better life.   May they be blessed know that they are touching a life in such a wonderful way.

Blessings to you all.
Jeanne and Steve Cowan

From the JHOR Leadership

            Dear friends and partners in the ministry 

Jeanne Cowan has told us that $900 is to be wired through Assist International for Alexandra's hearing aid.

Thank you so very much! You have no idea how needed this money was and how much we appreciate it. The doctors have highly recommended this new device for Alexandra, which is supposed to improve her chances of perceiving sounds. Some of the costs are covered by her health insurance but we were still short of what is a significant amount for us. So this donation of $900 is truly a gift from above and a sign of God's wonderful provision and kindness.

We will keep you updated on how things go with Alexandra and we are also sending you now some more information about her situation in general (her background etc). We are not sure how familiar you are with the specifics of her case.

Once again, thank you! And may God bless you abundantly!

With love and appreciation,

Eliza,

   Ligia,

     & Laurentiu

Alexandra’s Bio

A few highlights from Alexandra’s life in the past few months

Alexandra's life and speech are continually changing for the better, step by step, with every speech therapy session she goes to. At the end of May, she went on a trip to Serbia, with her classmates from the School for Hyperacusis Children. It was the very first time she went on a school trip.

This has been quite an accomplishment, since she was able to express herself and get around in a completely new place. She was also very nervous because it was the first time she ever left the country. We had her passport issued, because otherwise this would not have been possible. She had a great time with her friends, even though they all use sign language to talk to each other.

Alexandra is very dedicated to her speech classes and the results are visible. She has made visible progress. She is able to pronounce more often and better several consonants (such as s, t, g), which are uttered from the throat.

Alexandra is still among the first students in her class. She will finish the 4th grade soon (at the end of June) and will be in the 5th grade, beginning with September 2016.

If in the very beginning Alexandra was a shy girl, who kept to herself most of the time, now she is a happy, outgoing person - all because she can express herself better and better. She is so glad that the people around her can understand her.

As she is about to start school soon, we will keep you updated on how she is doing.

Thank you!                       

“Lord Jesus, thank you for the worldwide Body of Christ,

 that through your Spirit you choose to rally hundreds maybe thousands of believers

around one little girl, because that one little girl matters to you.   Amazing! 

Amen”
