Below is Brother Prasanth giving cake to Mary (right) & Martha, twin girls who turned 16 on the 21st of this month. It was a very special time for them, as it was the first time they have had a birthday celebration in their lives. The Lord saw their pain and poverty. Their home behind them actually has no permanent walls, just a temporary mesh material we put around their home about 2 weeks ago. They have a dirt floor, no electricity, and their outside "bathroom" is just 3 walls with no door or roof (and no hole in the ground or toilet). They must go to another location in the village to get their water. Their Daddy died of Covid in 2020; the mother has 1 or 2 house cleaning jobs to earn some income, not enough for them to even eat properly. We thank our GOD for connecting us to this family. The girls are now in the 11th grade, they have their fees paid, school materials purchased, and new bicycles to ride to school. Lord willing, within the next week or 2 we will start constructing walls and put stone flooring in their home, get an electric connection, and complete a proper bathroom for them. As the great old song says, "Praise GOD, from Whom all blessings flow..."
