Love
Of
Vietnam
Expressed |
(1 John 3:16-18 NKJV) By this we know love,
because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our
lives for the brethren. But whoever has this world's goods,
and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the
love
of God abide in him? My little children let us not love
in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. |

Right now there is a needy child living in poverty who is waiting for a caring person like you. Please pray that we can find sponsors for all our children and put your prayers to work by sharing the need with your church, Sunday School Class, civic club, etc. We have many other children who need sponsors. To see our children or to fill out an application go to our web site by clicking child. Without your help many of these will not finish school. For just $20 a month you can see that the child you choose will break the cycle of poverty by getting a good education. |

PLEASE HELP A CHILD THIS MONTH (2 Cor 9:9-11 NKJV) As it is written: "He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever." Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness, while you are enriched in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to God. |

God bless you for your Prayers and financial support for the children,
Reggie, Bao Chi & Hannah in Vietnam |
