GRACE HOME NEWS

I am so excited to report that our three senior girls, Ruth 17, Susanna 17, & Johanna 16, along with Moses 21, are attending Bible College in Guntur City. These girls have no family outside of Grace Family, & for Ruth this is the first time in her life she has ever attended an educational facility. It has been wonderful to watch her transformation from a broken, traumatised 11 year old into the beautiful, joyful young woman that she is today.

Sadly, Elia 17 decided to drop out of school, & he & younger brother Francis have gone home to live with their Mum. Recently their Mum received a Government grant to buy land & start a small business, so is now able to support her family, which is wonderful. It has been a delight to nourish these lovely boys who were with us for almost 7 years.
Three new needy children were welcomed at Grace Home this week, so now we have 38 lovely girls & boys.

SPONSORS NEEDED
Ten children currently need sponsors - they are Peter, James, Stephen, Venkat, Joy, Blessy, Glory, & the three new children whose details I do not yet have.
Please visit the 'Orphans' page on this website & if your heart is touched, please contact me via the email link on the website.
Sponsorship gives you the opportunity & the satisfaction of investing in the future of a precious child's life.

  1. I hope we don't lose track of Elia and Frances as we have known them for a long time now, and really hope that they will do well in their home environment. Rhys and Mary

  2. Many thanks to Rhys & Mary for your faithful sponsorship of Elia for many years, & also to JoMaria who has sponsored Francis for the same time period.
    By caring for these boys, you also helped their widowed mother.

    We will follow the progress of the boys.
