From left are Mythilli (12), Nandini (15) and Nanditha (13). This photo was taken at their school on Nandini's birthday last year. Both parents are alive, their Daddy an auto rickshaw driver, the mother not working. Their Daddy, his name Parishudha Rao ("holy king") helps us with the transportation of children and family members to many of our meetings and excursions. It's a win-win situation, as he is faithful and a good driver (and believer), and it also helps him with finances. There are literally hundreds of auto rickshaws being used to taxi people around, so it's not a high-paying job, especially because of repairs and fuel being over $4 per gallon (they use rupees). RHM is helping the 2 older girls with education, while the Daddy handles the youngest girl's education and all the family expenses. Please pray for this family.
