Why do we pray before we eat? 🙏🍽️

This morning at breakfast, I had a simple conversation with our children about why we pray before eating.

We pray because food is a gift from God. We pause to thank Him for providing for us, to ask Him to bless the food, and to remember that not everyone has enough to eat.

Prayer teaches our children gratitude, humility, and sharing. Even an ordinary breakfast can become an opportunity to remember God and His goodness.

At St. Barnabas, we want our children not only to be educated, but also to grow in faith and learn to see God in the ordinary things of life. 🙏❤️

You can help us provide daily meals for over 314 children. Sponsor a child through our website:

Every child deserves enough food to learn, grow, and thrive. ❤️

“Every girl deserves a childhood protected from exploitation, a safe place to grow, and the opportunity to build a better future.”

During a recent educational excursion, our girls enjoyed moments of laughter, excitement, smiles, and a few little jitters. These experiences help children discover the world, build confidence, and simply enjoy being children.

At St. Barnabas, we are committed to providing vulnerable girls with a safe environment, education, care, and protection from exploitation.

Your support makes these opportunities possible.

Please donate and help us protect a child’s childhood and build her future.

Your support makes moments like these possible. Please consider making a donation today and help us continue providing food, education, clothing, shelter, and joyful experiences for our children.

A Child Should Never Go to Bed Hungry

Dear Friends and Benefactors,

Today, I come before you with an urgent appeal.

The children at St. Barnabas Orthodox Orphanage and School depend entirely on the generosity of compassionate people like you. When monthly donations that have been pledged are missed, we are forced to reduce what we can provide. A little less food today… a little less tomorrow… until eventually, some of our children face the heartbreaking reality of going to bed with empty stomachs.

No child deserves that.

We humbly ask you to become a monthly supporter. Whether your gift is large or small, it helps place food on the table, keeps children in school, provides medical care, and gives hope to those who have nowhere else to turn.

94% of every donation goes directly to caring for the children. Your generosity has a real and immediate impact on their lives.

Please don’t wait. Help us feed, educate, and protect these children today.

Donate now:

“Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and He will repay him for his deed.” — Proverbs 19:17

May God richly bless you for your love, compassion, and faithful support.
