Growing, Physically and in Number

As I look at the photos of the Sunday School classes going on, it seems like the numbers are growing in at least 2 of the 5 villages, and so are the children! Below are some girls leading in song in the village of NTR Colony. Please keep this precious ministry in your prayers.

Precious Times of PRAYER

During some Hindu festival days in January, our children and youth had some school days off, so we conducted some special meetings. During that time, they broke up into groups to pray for various needs. No doubt, some of the prayers were in union with whatever message had been preached beforehand. So beautiful to see these mothers, grandmothers, some men, children and youth praying, sometimes crying out to the Lord! Please keep us in prayer!

Happy Birthday Iswarya!

Iswarya with her 2 cousins, Emmanuel and Anand, on her 20th birthday in January. Iswarya, her 2 sisters, Suvarna and Kranthi, and these 2 cousins all used to be in a hostel that I was a part of for many years. All of them are living together with Iswarya's mother and step-father, who seem to be taking good care of them. RHM is NOT assisting them in any way, but we like to stay in touch with them. Iswarya is one of the best in her college in making good grades, and seems to be solid in her walk with JESUS, for which we are very thankful. Please pray for Iswarya, which means prosperity or wealth in their Telugu language.

Children in Their Uniforms

Here are 3 of our girls you're assisting with education, wearing their uniforms. To the left is Nandini (16), now in the 11th grade, one of 3 girls in her family. Nandini's parents are alive, but poor, the Daddy helping us with transportation with his auto rickshaw. In the middle is Preethi (19), now in her 2nd year of nursing school, who has a younger sister. Her father died in 2020; her mother sells leaves for some income. The girl on the right is Sai Bhavya (14), now in the 9th grade. She has a brother who lives with a different relative. Sai Bhavya's parents both died when she was very small, now staying with her grandmother. Please pray for Nandini, Preethi and Sai Bhavya.

Donation Page is Working; Village Ministry

Yesterday, by God's grace, we were able to get the donation page working again. Still don't know why it stopped working, but technical issues can be perplexing, and a trial to our patience! Below is Brother Marthababu sharing with people in the village of Chilakala Colony. Sadly, as far as we know all the children in the village have stopped going to school. Thankful that the girl in this photo, Arpana, went into the 6th grade and can read well. Many of the adults in villages do not see any real value in education, and are happy when the children become old enough to join them in working. It's a perpetual cycle, yet still the Lord loves them and is reaching out to them in His love and grace. In fact, many people in this particular village have come to the Lord and attend the church regularly. Marthababu and his wife visit this village pretty much on a weekly basis. Please pray for His anointing upon this village ministry.

Donation Server Down

When I checked the link that accompanied our Sunday blog post, I realized the link to our donation page is not working. It's one of those weird technical issues that no one seems to understand why it took place. We have website techs looking at it now. Please pray it will be resolved SOON. Current monthly recurring donations are not affected, only one-time donations. If you're wanting to make a new recurring donation or a one-time donation, check back daily on our RHM Website. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Below are children on Kayya's 10th birthday, Kavya the small girl in the green. All the bigger girls we are visiting regularly and helping with their education (through you, of course). The 5 bigger girls in the 2nd photo are our girls home children. The other little girl is Manu, Kavya's sister. These 2 children are from a Hindu family, but come with their grandmother to some of our meetings. Please pray for Kavya and her family.
