Urgent Finances to maintain monthly operational expenses.
Our ministry is a faith ministry so we are totally dependent upon your donations. We have five homes that care for over 50 children daily and 150 children in our mentally handicapped and special needs school. We are so-o-o-o grateful to all that help finance this ministry but we believe it necessary to inform you that donations have dropped 27% which has caused us great difficulty. Our monthly operational expenses are extremely high for our growing ministry. We always appreciate and need prayer for operational expenses, however, there are also other ways to help.
Please pray
We have received a wonderful grant that will boost our continuation in serving disabled and learning disabled children in Mexico, for which we are very grateful, but more work need to be done. Please pray for wisdom in obtaining new supporters for our ministry. We would appreciate any suggestions that would help us meet our goals.
We know times are difficult. We are indebted to you for standing with us. Your love for these children is evident. “Gracias”
