We praise God for all of His provision! We continue to serve the children of our community and trust that God will bless our work. Each year, we give our 195 students a new sweater, socks, and shoes for Christmas. For many, this will be the only new clothing items they have. The cost per student is $13.50 for a total of $2,632.50. Happy in their new sweaters! There is a long waiting list of 120 students to enter the Kollukhedi Village School. Only $19 per month will provide each student with an education, uniforms, and text books. These children are a great asset to our ministry for the present and the future. Through them, we get to meet the parents and grandparents at our monthly Parent - Teacher meeting. We are able to reach many in the village with Christ’s love through teaching these children. In 2005, your donations provided a four-wheeler for our ministry. After so many years, it required frequent costly repairs. Thus, a new four-wheeler has become an urgent need. The cost to replace this vehicle is $12,900. Thank you for your prayers and support as we continue to show the love of Christ to our students and their families!

As always, we covet your prayers while we continue to share the light of the Gospel in India. This primarily Hindu nation is a dark place, but we continue to be encouraged as we see the church continue to grow. One of the ways that we reach the lost in India is through education. The schools we operate serve the lower caste of remote villages. We provide a Christ-center education to children that would otherwise not be able to attend school. Our hope is to reach these children before the forces of evil creep in. Currently, we have 500 students in two schools. In 2015, we took on an additional 200 students from neighboring villages. Almost 90% of these new students are girls. In India, girls are considered a burden, are often mistreated, and are married off in childhood. We hope to empower these girls with tools that lead to a successful future, to stand up for themselves, and fight injustice with the Lord’s help. When we took on these students, we received additional funding from another ministry that helped to offset the cost. Due to government intervention, that funding is no longer available. We now have an immediate need of 200 sponsors for these children. Only $19 per month provides all necessary school supplies, a uniform, a daily meal, and a life-changing education. Our Creator is faithful and mindful of our needs. We are trusting the Lord to provide so that these children experience the love and redemption of Christ, as well as have an opportunity to break the cycle of poverty through the power of education.

We have sta rted a new program called Kollukhedi Child Development Center with 150 students ranging from three to five years of age. Of the 150 children, 124 are girls. In Indian villages, daughters are neglected, looked upon as burdens, and married off at a very early age. We want to empower them to change the course of their lives. Our Jagat Jyothi School in the same village serves 200 students from preschool to Eighth Grade. All students are provided with spiritual education, regular curriculum, medical care, lunch, and school uniforms and supplies. Our main problem is lack of accommodation for all of these students. We are currently serving these students in two shifts during the day. In faith, we are looking to the Lord for the needed funds that will allow us to construct additional classrooms.
