HOPE boys in front of their home, wearing  new Christmas clothes
given to them on the 24th. The 2 boys in the different clothes belong
to the couple now overseeing the boys.

PRAY FOR JEEVA, boy in yellow who turned 8 today. He seems to really be enjoying his birthday candle! His sister Keerthana (10) is on the right.
Three days before the year end. Pray the "Father of the fatherless and Judge for the widow" (Psalms 68:5) will touch many hearts to give to RHM during these next 2 or 3 days. Thanks!

PRAY FOR NITHYA. Nithya (right), whose name means "eternal", turned 7 yesterday, the 26th. Her birth name is one of the Hindu "gods". Our HOPE children chose her new name, which she really likes. A very lovable girl, now studying in kindergarten.

CLICK HERE to see RHM's December newsletter. Only 4 days remaining before the end of the year. If you're not able to give personally, please pray the Lord will touch many other hearts to donate for this ministry to the poor & needy in India.

program in the village of Nandayapalem.

"HAPPY CHRISTMAS" at HOPE. Here are HOPE boys with Brother Dan after receiving some new clothes for Christmas. It's been a wonderful season for sharing the Gospel with many, besides a multitude of programs with singing dancing and sharing about WHY our Lord came into this world.

Click onto the above link to see our appeal for end of the year donations, which are very much needed to help us go into the new year. Sometimes we go for weeks or months without larger donations being made, so the surplus which often comes at the end of the year is so helpful in this ministry to the needy children and elderly here in India.

WIDOWS & ELDERLY receiving new clothes for Christmas. We're very thankful to the Lord and to our donors for providing some new clothes for all the widows, elderly & handicapped which RHM is helping (to whatever degree). These are from the village of Alluru, Brother Peter one of their pastors in that village. Peter and his wife were overseeing our HOPE boys for more than one year, but returned to ministry with Peter's father and brothers in Alluru.

PRAY FOR VENI, who turned 10 today. She's been in HOPE since she was a puffy-cheeked little 3 year old. She's from a Hindu family, her real name Venkateswaramma, named after one of their "gods". She loves Veni instead. One of her biggest excitements recently is the fact that, as a result of her witness, her mother is now going to church. May her little heart continue to burn with a passion to make Him known throughout her life here on earth.
   Below is Veni when she came to HOPE in 2012, and in a more recent photo.

SHARING HIS LIFE DURING THE CHRISTMAS SEASON
We are very happy to be able to share the story and purpose of JESUS Christ to many different people/villages in various ways during this season. Through the HOPE ministry we're able to share with many via the Christmas programs in the villages and in the school. Through the widows/elderly ministry, we're able to share with many of the elderly. Praise His Name! "Whatever you do in word or deed, do all things in the Name of our Lord JESUS Christ, giving thanks through Him to GOD the Father." Colossians 3:17
Below are some widows (one younger one has HIV and was abandoned by her husband) after receiving a new Christmas dress a couple of days ago.

PRAY FOR NEHIMIYA, who turned 11 on the 10th. She's from another girls home which RHM gives some support to in a state north of HOPE. She lost her sight in her left eye; still praying for a miracle in her life. She's a nice singer, winning a singing competition in her school not long ago.

SWEET MEMORIES of sweet girls. Angel (right, then 8) with little Sravani (3) on Christmas morning 2011. Thanks forevermore to our Heavenly Father for giving the opportunity to extend His love unto these little ones, and many more like them!

Christmas programs.

Precious elderly people from Cheemalapenta (top photo) and Chundi (bottom), all but one being widows, getting new blankets in November. Planning to give a new Christmas dress to all the widows/elderly (147 total) this month. Pray for this elderly ministry, that it would be all the Lord wants it to be for the benefit of these people, and for His glory. "But the brother [or sister] of humble circumstances is to glory in his high position." James 1:9 (a theme verse for the elderly during our last visitation with the elderly in some of the villages, intent on bringing to the widows and poor believers' hearts the reality that our Father's ways are so much different than man's ways. Though the world may not think of these poor, illiterate people as having much worth, through the Cross and receiving His salvation the Lord has placed a very high value upon their lives and future!)

Pray for HOPE'S SUVARNA, I'm sure one of the sweetest girls on earth. She turns 14 tomorrow (the 4th). She's now studying in the 8th grade. From a young age, maybe 7 years old, she's had a tender heart toward the Lord. Pray she will never lose that, but will grow in her passion to know and serve Him.
