Below is Brother Yacobu (Telugu for Jacob), receiving a small amount of rice each month from RHM funds. Jacob is the grandfather of 2 girls we're assisting, Preethi and Pinky. Jacob has had 2 or 3 strokes, so is not able to work on any consistent basis. His wife works when she is able, but she also is not always able.
In July 2022 we were giving more than $900 worth of food to 43 families (different amounts according to their need). Because of less donations coming in at that time, we gradually reduced the number of recipients to the current number of 25 families, and giving a smaller amount to each person or family. Now we are giving about $150 worth of food each month.
Pray that our precious Father, from Whom comes "every good thing given and every perfect gift" (James 1:17), will grant us more donations so that more can be done to bless the needy with physical helps, such as food and clothing.
