Happy Easter Everyone!

Here is the picture of my friend Sandhya and the children we are helping and praying for.

They are showing off their new clothes she was able to purchase with the money we were able to send. They are so very thankful. We feel so blessed that God has brought us all together.

I pray if you find this blog your heart will also be touched and you too will want to help these children. There are many more we can feed, clothe and teach if we find more people willing share just a small amount.

May God bless you and your family!

They got the money!!

I am happy to report Sandhya received the money we sent via Western Union.
She and her father have purchased new clothing for the children & food.

She wrote:
"I have just received the money. My father took me to the bank and received for the money. We spent $35 and preserved the remaining amount. We bought clothes for $30 and $5 for some food materials. This evening children will be wearing new dress and eat the good food. They will be very happy this evening. I will take the picture of the children and will send you as soon as possible."

I will post the picture when I get it. Then you will be able to see some of the children that need your help. Please join us in praying that others will join is in supporting this ministry.

Thank you!

Western Union

We have learned Western Union is the best way to get the money to Sandhya.
We are sending money today to buy each child an outfit, food & teaching supplies. They are all so excited. Sandhya said she'll send a photo of the children in their new clothes once they are able to get them. :)

Please help...there are so many children. I told my husband this morning, it will only take a few families to support this young girl's ministry. She is giving all of her time & energy. The least we can do is give her the financial support.

I can provide her email for you if you are willing to help. She will need specific info to get the money from Western Union. It's quite safe & simple. I did it right here with a credit card from my home.

If you can't provide financial support right now, please keep this ministry in prayer!

Blessings.................

Why Blog?

I am a Christian SAHM with 2 children. My husband and I have 2 adopted children. Our son was adopted from India. In my desire to learn more about India I began corresponding with a 19 yo girl, Sandhya, from India for over a year now. I believe God brought us together. She is an amazing young woman who has devoted her life to serving Christ.

Her father is a Pastor & they moved from the comforts of the city to live in a very poor village amongst the people they serve. She and her mother take care of 10 orphans in their home. They would like to care for more but their resources are tapped out. They literally have brought these children into their family. They feed, teach, clothe, bathe and love these children as if they were their own.

My friend Sandhya has never asked for anything except my prayers. Her devotion to these children and serving Christ humbles me. Recently she asked if I knew of any missionaries who were traveling to India that could bring the children used clothing and food materials. I am able to send enough money to buy each child 1 outfit, but they need more. Can you help?

They need food, teaching supplies, and another outfit for each child. Can your church help?

If you are like me your heart breaks when you see the children on tv who are in need. I too have sponsored these children through the years. How would you like to help a child in India and know that 100% of your money goes directly to the child?! This isn't an organization but a family serving Christ! They don't know I am starting this blog. They ask for nothing but your prayers.

But I am asking.

Do you know someone who is traveling to Andhra Pradesh, South India? Do you have family there? Are you also an adoptive parent of a Indian child? Would you like to help these children?

Do you work for a Christian organization that can get involved? Can your church sponsor a child?

We can't mail items because they will have to pay to get the package from the post office. Packages are also stolen and picked through.

I am open to suggestions. I just want to help these children...so far away. We have all been blessed with so much. Can you help?

Thanks!
