A very fruitful meeting that we conducted recently was for parents and grandparents of the children that we minister to on a regular basis. Since most of the daily children's ministry involves visiting the children's homes, it is essentially a family ministry as well. This meeting was giving counsel to the parents/grandparents about how to guide their children, as well as maintain Christian character as they are dealing with the children. The women singing in the photo below are all mothers of teenagers we work with. From left: Sandhya (mother of 2 girls, Akshaya and Abhinaya), Chanti (mother of Paul), Bharathi (mother of a boy, Arun), Karimun (mother of Johnbasha), and Achamma (mother of Veni, a girl). Two of the women are widows, one abandoned and the other 2 married. Please pray for them.
