The top photo is a gathering in Sai's home, the boy to the far left at the top of the photo. Sai turned 13 on June 18th. Both parents are alive, but it's a very troubled home, the mother having some mental instability. Helping Sai with his education. His great grandmother is part of our widows ministry. Most of these children are from Muslim families in Sai's neighborhood.
One of the girls in the lower photo is Sirisha (right), who turned 17 on June 23rd. We didn't know it until we had children gathered in Sirisha's home that it was also Shiny's birthday the same day (about 12 years old). Shiny was so happy that she was included in the birthday celebration. Helping Sirisha with her education, now in the 11th grade. Not at this time assisting Shiny because we've hit a limit on how many children we can help at this time. She's also from a poor family, the father a drunkard and not caring for the family properly.
Thankful for the opportunities to share about JESUS with these beautiful children!
