Helping the Orphan and Widow

Sai Bhavya (15) is with her grandmother, Aruna. As we've shared with you several times over the years, Sai Bhavya's parents both died when she was young, she also having a brother. Aruna took care of both of them for a few years, but it became too much for her, so the boy went to be with another relative. Sai Bhavya is doing well, now in the 10th grade. Aruna has had at least 2 strokes, but seems to be doing much better. Through your help she has been taking paralysis medicine for the last 3 years or so. Sai Bhavya has a loving heart, and helps her grandmother a lot, including doing some of the cooking. They stay in a small rental place. "A Father of the fatherless and a Judge for the widows, is God in His holy habitation. God makes a home for the lonely..." Psalms 68:5-6

Little Flowers are Growing

Little Hasini turned 8 in October, her brother and sister, Eshwanth and Varshini giving her cake in the lower photo. Most all the birthdays include a time of singing, sharing the Word and/or Bible stories, and prayer. Brother Raju is speaking with the family, neighbors and a few other children in the upper photo. Please pray for Hasini, now in the 3rd grade. Your donations are helping with her education.

Happy Birthday Arun!

Arun turned 17 on the 17th of October. He has a tender heart for the Lord. Pray for Arun, who's gone through some temptations and youthful desires in recent months. His mother, also in the photo, has had health problems over the last several years, but she is doing better now. Praise the Lord! She has a strong desire to be faithful to our Lord.

 RHM October Update, Making the Most of the Holidays

Most of this update covers the ministry that took place (largely through our precious youth) during recent holidays in India. Please read all of it, and ask the Lord what He might want to say to your heart through the Scriptures in the upper part of the update. Below is Mary sharing her testimony during a village meeting. She is a jewel!

Our Youth Ministering to the Elderly

The top photo is Veni (17) sharing with one of the elderly (I think they're both widows in each photo) in the village of VV Palem. The Lord has definitely used the brokenness of Veni's life to bring more of His compassion into her heart for others. I recently asked her to try and smile more in some of the photos, and she immediately responded that it is difficult to smile with all the problems in her family. She's not a pretender, but a sincere girl. The lower photo is Sirisha (20) sitting with another elderly woman. Sirisha also has a tender heart for the Lord, and is a more serious-minded girl, not silly or foolish in her behavior. We're very thankful for what the Lord is doing in the hearts of our precious young people. Please continue to pray for them.

Birthday Girl, and Pavani's Pregnancy

Marthababu and his wife Pavani are full-time workers with our children's ministry, helping us for the last 3 or 4 years. They're awesome! Here they are with Nandini on her 17th birthday earlier this month. She's now in the 12th grade. Marthababu & Pavani have wanted a child for many years, but have not been successful; she miscarried last time, always a heartbreak. Surely they need a miracle from our merciful Father, and we're asking you to pray for one. Please pray for this pregnancy, and also for Nandini. THANK YOU for your concern and prayers!
