EMPATHY

We can see many people need help, they need good nutrition, they need good care but who shall I SENT said the Lord, here I am my Lord, send me.......

We want to take them and feed them, the poorest people among us, but we haven't got power to do it (workers) to make it happen, but we continue praying that somebody will have burden together with us doing this, for the time being we have works to do now, raising the orphanage kids, managing 2 kindergarden with 3 teachers and 3 workers

We are praying that we can buy a piece of land to do farming together with our kids, this will train them live skills, we can supply our own vegetables and meat for our orphanage.
We are also struggling and praying that God provide a car so we can bring the kids to school (for now they walked to school), so we can help the people in this island better.
