Persecution continues in India

Brethren,

Please remember to pray for your Indian brethren in India. This ministry is dedicated to helping the orphans and the ministry of the Gospel in India. Serious persecution of Christians contunes to this day in India from the Hindus leaving many Christian families homeless, hungry, poorly clothed, and in many cases, have left children orphaned.

Dayspring Children's Home in Andhra Pradesh has been helping Christians from the Orissa State with food and clothing and has a standing request to receive some 40 orphans into their fold. Sadly, Dayspring is struggling to look after the 150 orphans they currently have, and because of a broken roof and lack of support, cannot take them at this time.

Brethren, now is the time to lift up our eyes and look upon the suffering of our brethren throughout the world and lend our help both in prayers and giving. There are several ways you and I can help these Christians and orphans:

1. Commit yourself and/or your small group or church to pray for them.
2. Keep informed about what is happening in India through this blogsite and others like it.
3. Make a committment to help one orphan at $25/month. This covers everything that child needs for food, clothing, shelter and education.
4. Make a one-time gift for the support of the children.
5. Go to India and encourage them in Christ Jesus.
6. Request a visit from me, or someone involved with mission work to India to speak to your group.
