On Thursday, August 19, 2010, Mia’s Children lost a dear friend and family member when Costel Scarlat passed away after battling liver disease caused by hepatitis from earlier in his life.
His funeral was held in Bucharest on Saturday, August 21. Since then, the organization’s older members have come back to help take on some of the burdens at the mission and keep the younger children occupied.
We thank you for your prayers and thoughts and continue to encourage you to send Mia and/or the children a note of encouragement by commenting on our blog, writing on our Facebook wall, or contacting us by mail or e-mail.
And we hope you enjoy the above slide show that honors a few of the things we love about Costel and continue to thank God for.
