Saved By Love

Pastor Nahum with some of his school children this morning...simple yet stunning beauty in these faces.  Look hard.  

Here’s what I've learned.  Death happens but one of the greatest tragedies is to watch a child die a slow death from something preventable, from the simple lack of love.  Children are helpless when no one helps them, forgotten when no one remembers them, lonely when no one spends time with them, hungry when no one feeds them, thirsty when no one gives them water, orphaned when no one adopts them, needy when no one meets their needs.  But our love in action changes a tragic story into a beautiful love story.  Where’s the love?  We see the needs of Pastor Nahum’s children in his village and it’s not too late.  They can be saved by love.  Will you open your heart and be the hands that will extend God’s love them?    

School has started at Gilbert Christian School but its future is unstable.  Pastor Nahum still needs consistent monthly support to provide these kids with supplies, teachers, and helpers to cook and serve their food.  Pastor Nahum and his wife are sacrificing EVERYTHING they possibly can but there are only 2 of them and as their bodies get older they just can't do as much as they have in the past.  They need our help.  Join us to become a sponsor and save the school 200 children are depending on for their only hope of an education.  We need 17 more sponsors...You can click here to go to our Back to LifeMinistries donate page, scroll down to Gilbert Christian School Sponsorship and sign up to become a sponsor for only $30 a month.  All glory to God.
