Bearing Fruit That Will Last
“…They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of His splendor.”Isaiah 61:1-3
Our calling is based on Isaiah 61:1-3 from which we care for and share the Gospel with vulnerable kids to see “a planting of the LORD for the display of His splendor.”

Why We Exist
There are an estimated 60,000 abandoned children and 200,000 highly at-risk, vulnerable gypsy children in Romania today. UNICEF reports that the abandonment rate has remained unchanged in the past 30 years.
Livada’s holistic approach begins by nurturing orphans in the cradle and ends with them becoming faithful, interdependent, and contributing members of society. The platform of all programs is a discipleship process leading to life change and personal responsibility.
