Hope in the Midst of Despair

Two photos, one showing the previous condition of this family's "house" in early May, and the 2nd showing the progress of construction at the end of May.
The parents, both still living, had already made poor decisions, leaving their family of 5 (sometimes the grandparents also staying with them) without a proper home. We struggled about how much the Lord would want us to help them, and since Covid began the father has now developed diabetes and other health problems. For the sake of the 3 children (aged 22, 18 and 16, whom the Lord has us assisting with education), we decided to invest about $1,400 to make some improvements in their living conditions. That's not enough to finish the walls, but at least it will provide some safety from the rats and snakes. They are still in the process of adding more bricks to the walls, so we're hopeful more than half the walls will be completed. Pray for this family, especially for the children (Divya, Sandhya, Abraham).
