As we minister to others, we have many goals for the lives of those we share with: salvation, spiritual maturity, watching them develop a desire to serve Him and serve others, these are just a few. With children and youth, some of the easiest ways to try and involve them is having them pray, sing, share a story or Scriptures in the meetings. We try to give these opportunities as much as possible. In just about every gathering we have, the children and youth are standing in groups and singing to the Lord. Many of the village children can't carry a tune at all when they first begin, but after some months or years with the other children, they improve a lot. These are all girls, ages 13 to 20, whom we work with regularly and help in various ways: from left Akshaya, her sister Abhinaya, Sirisha, Mary, Sirisha's sister Prasanna, Mary's sister Martha, and Akshaya. Please pray for our youth, that they will grow mighty in Spirit, and do great things in His kingdom.
