His Great Love for the Poor

"Though the Lord is exalted, yet He regards the lowly" Psalms 138:6. We see this all through the Bible, our amazing Creator and King reaching out to the needy, and even using the poor and insignificant of this world to accomplish His great purposes. Probably any sincere worker for the Lord will witness this throughout their lifetime: GOD's great love reaching down to the most broken, poor and undeserving (which includes ALL of us). These villagers have just about nothing of this world's possessions, and don't aspire to much more than that. But still He has loved them. The 2 women have given their hearts to the Lord. We tried to put the 3 bigger kids in the photo (2 boys and 1 girl) in a better school, but because of fear in the children and lack of support from their fathers, they didn't stay in school but a few weeks. 90% or more of the men in their culture will be alcoholics, abuse their wives, and take little care for their children...but still He loves them, so still we reach out to them. The tallest girl, Padma, has had a large growth on her back for years. Please pray for her, and for a move of the Holy Spirit among these precious souls.

Precious Akshaya's Birthday

Sister Pavani is with Akshaya, who turned 14 on April 4th. When she was little, she had many seizures and some mental issues (not sure her actual problem). Her mother is a good believer, but her father (an electrician) is not always reliable to help his wife and 2 daughters. Since we started helping Akshaya with regular meds and more nutritional food, she seems to be doing better and is more stable. A very sweet girl. Please pray for Akshaya, and also for Pavani (she and her husband Raju our children's ministry leaders), who is due to have her baby during the first week of June.

Helping This Widow and Her Boys

This is Salome from the easy-to-say village of Jampalavaripalem SC (well, maybe not very easy). Bro. Wesley (a pastor who helps us with the widows & elderly ministry) visits this village at least twice a month, visiting the pastor (Laban), Salome and 2 other widows, all 3 attending Bro. Laban's church. We just added Salome into our widows program last year, as her husband died of a terrible and painful skin disease, leaving her and her 2 teenage boys in a critical position (she took big loans trying to get medical help for her husband). Salome works in the agricultural fields when work is available. RHM is giving food for her family each month. Please pray for Salome and her boys.

Happy Birthday Pinky!

Pinky turned 16 on April 3rd. Here, Bro. Marthababu and his wife Pavani are giving cake to Pinky. This couple is doing fulltime ministry for us among the children, and doing very nicely. Pray for them also, as they have been praying for a baby for more than 10 years without success. They have surrendered it into the Lord's faithful Hands, but certainly the desire is still there. Congratulations to Pinky, who received her 10th grade final exam results today, passing all her subjects with good marks (grades). Please pray for Pinky.

Needing a Miracle

This is another hut (with a huge tarp over it) that was completed recently. We have mentioned this family before, asking you to pray. The man has 2 wives, this wife having 2 children, including the boy, Sankar, who is in the photo. The other wife has had 9 or 10 children, she and some of her children living in a separate hut less than a hundred yards away. Some of the older children have already married, maybe 6 or 7 of the children still living in the huts. This man has not allowed his wives to come to the church services/meetings, but the younger children (including Sankar) come regularly to the church and Sunday School, which is very near to their home. Demonic manifestations were taking place in some of the family members a while back, which brought some fear to the man. We are hoping and praying that the Lord can soften his heart and bring him to salvation. Please pray for all this family.
