A Precious Servant of GOD

We are very thankful for the life and example of Lakshmamma. Here she is showing the monthly support given to her by Brother Wesley, who is also her pastor. Most of our widows that we assist are younger widows with children, but we still have a few older ones that we are ministering to, Lakshmamma one of them. She has a servant's heart. I can remember when another elderly woman, Vijaya Lakshmi, fell and broke her leg (she has polio and has never married). Lakshmamma lived down the same street, and even though she is possibly in her 80's (she doesn't know her birth date), she would cook for Vijaya Lakshmi and help any way she could. Several months ago, Lakshmamma also fell and broke her hip. We (the Lord supplying through your donations) are helping her with the rent payment for her home, and for some of her medications. Please pray for this dear sister in the Lord.

Again, just in the nick of time (I have a hard time getting our update to you a little earlier in the month)! Please take some time to read, and respond as our loving Lord would lead you. I believe the first 6 photos & captions all include prayer needs. As always, bless you and THANK YOU SO MUCH for you concern for this ministry so far away in India!

A Beautiful Family

This is Sister Jayasri and her 5 children. The father of the home unexpectedly passed away in late 2023. He was a hard worker as an electrician, trying to provide for his family. Some months after his passing, the mother started working as a teacher in a school. She works hard, but her salary isn't sufficient to care for her large family, so RHM (through your donations) has been helping them with monthly support, and helping with most of the children's education. From left is Pavan (14, in the 9th grade), Danny (12, 7th grade), Sowmya (20, 3rd year of engineering college), Suma (18, 2nd year of degree college), and Sreeya (16, 2nd year intermediate, which is the same as a senior in high school in the US). All are faithful to attend church activities and participate in this ministry. Please pray for this precious family.

Happy for Another Teen!

Divya is here with Brother Raju on her 13th birthday July 10th. According to the internet her name means "divine, heavenly, brilliant". She has brought much joy into our lives! Please pray for Divya; she lives with her mother and 2 sisters. The Lord has used us to assist this family for the last 4 or 5 years.

Singing in the Pain

From left are Bindu (14), Veni (17), Sirisha (20), Shine (15) and Prasanna (17) singing during a weekly meeting being conducted in a local church, many of our children, elderly and family members attending. We have asked you to pray for Sirisha and Prasanna for their health recently (Sirisha low blood levels, and Prasanna had a growth removed from her head). Pray for Veni's family, going through a very turbulent time. We praise the Lord for Veni and her mother, the mother turning from idolatry about 3 years ago. But other family members need the Lord and His rescue in their lives.

Happy 11th Birthday!

This is Vijay Babu with his grandparents on his 11th birthday earlier this month. Their family is very poor. Vijay Babu has an older sister, Prem Kumari, who is deaf. Their father left the family after much quarreling with the children's mother, who then committed suicide by taking rat poison. Vijay Babu was a baby at that time, his sister about 2 or 3 years old. The grandfather has always worked to care for the family. Previously, there was great grandparents, these grandparents, an aunt, and the 2 children living together. The great grandfather recently passed away, and I'm not sure what happened to the aunt; now there are 5 living together, but the grandfather has hurt his back and is not working. They get a small disability pension because of the deaf child, but little other income. Please pray for Vijay Babu and his family. We have started helping them, praying for the grandfather's health.
