German volunteers served

The new smoker trailer in front of Centrul Civic iBelieve

We did it! We set out to buy a second smoker trailer, and by God’s grace and the generosity of several donors, it is now ours. Even better, we were able to get a better smoker than the one we had planned for.

This smoker will serve in Romania, at church events, community events and events for non-profits, and it will also travel to western Ukraine.

But it isn’t ready for the road yet. We still need to build the grill section, equip it with fire extinguishers and a spare wheel, register it and make a few improvements.

Already cooking

Serving the German aid team from the smoker

We have already had the chance to put it to work. We cooked for more than 35 people working at our church and on the new church building that is being renovated, and for a group of 13 Germans who brought aid for Romania and Ukraine.

What we still need

We need to raise €2,000 to finish the smoker and get it ready to serve:

  • Building the grill section
  • Fire extinguishers
  • A spare wheel
  • Registering the trailer
  • A few improvements for the road

Our first smoker, serving in Ukraine

Make a Difference smoker trailer in Ukraine

Our first smoker (BBQ) trailer is based in Ukraine. It serves near the frontlines and in the Kyiv and Donetsk regions, where we cook hot meals for soldiers and spend time with them. Along with the food, we give out waterproof Bibles provided by Biblica.
