As with all of our lives, many challenges are there in ministry. We have more than 30 families we visit regularly, which includes well more than 50 children. So MANY challenges come before us: financial, drifting, rebellion, loneliness, worldly desires, boy-girl issues, anger at another person...the list goes on and on. We are very thankful for Brother Raju, here counseling a 14 year old named Jeevan. About 3 years ago, Jeevan almost seemed like a hopeless case, already totally out of control, the mother at her wit's end. But the Lord used Brother Raju and his wife Pavani to love and counsel this boy into making some changes. There are still challenges from time to time, as there will be among our own children, but we see Jeevan, and so many other youth, humbling themselves and allowing the Holy Spirit to work in their hearts. Please keep Jeevan and all of our youth lifted up in your prayers.
