Dear Praying friends,
Our hearts are full of
thanksgiving as our desire to minister to Tanzanian orphans come to
reality this year. The verse in Psalm 37 : 4 “Delight thyself in
the Lord, and He shall give thee the desire of thine heart.“ is
now true to us. We had to spend much time seeking His will as this
is a life changing decision to our family and ministry. Thank you
for praying with us while sharing this burden to you. We are 6 years
and we saw the needs. The problem of children in need for care and
protection in Institution has grown at an alarming rate. The Devil
continue to plague this country with poverty, breakdown of the
family and abuses. Tanzania is a country that have had long severe
epidemic. AIDS is generating orphans so quickly that family
structure can no longer cope. Typically, half of all people with HIV
become infected before they turn 25, acquiring the deadly disease
and dying by the time they turn 35, leaving a generation of children
to be raised by their grandparents or relatives who can barely fend
themselves, let alone take care of orphans. Our ministry will
provide them with basic physical and spiritual needs but our long
range goal is to raise a generation of believers whom God will use
for His Kingdom. The Orphanages supported by C3 Mission
International.
Following are praises and prayers request.
