Praise Reports

Rescue 1

Praise the Lord for the six new children we received in January.
We are enjoying our gardens, full of wonderful vegetables for all of us to eat. Our mangoes are bearing fruit.
Our children are experiencing very good health.
We are grateful that the youth really enjoy playing sports, volleyball after school and soccer on Saturdays and Sunday afternoons. Often, they have soccer matches with teams from other children’s centres.
Our youth are enjoying learning to lead worship as they have opportunities to take turns weekly at our worship times.

Our children study regularly with no fear of bombing or war. In January, 63 qualified as “outstanding” in their local schools.

Praise for God’s healing of our children who were sick.
The vegetable gardens are growing, and our children are joyfully weeding, digging, and fertilizing the gardens.
