Dear RHM Friends,
Greetings in the Precious Name of JESUS.
Click
here to open up a pdf of our June newsletter. If anyone is still having problems with our donation page, please inform. Except for our monthly recurring givers, donations have been way down via the online donation page.
60,000 rupees for the school van insurance for one year (about $900), other annual "fees" for the HOPE School-related vans or building, needing to give salary increases for the school teachers...NOW would be a really nice time for someone to donate something extra, especially for HOPE. Pray about that.
I just returned from 3 days of going into far away villages with Brother Wesley where he knows of pastors who have many elderly people, mostly widows, who are in need. So thankful for a new donor in America who is helping us to enlarge the elderly/widows ministry here in India. Wow, you wouldn't believe the dishonesty within many people's hearts when they hear of an opportunity to get some assistance, whether they really need it or not! Even some of the pastors simply cannot be trusted, as it was evident that some of them were "coaching" the people as to what to say or what not to say. All the corruption aside, the Lord in His mercy will connect us with those who are truly in need. The donations which any of you give toward the Manna Program/widows ministry (the name of this widows ministry will change soon) will go toward the existing widows ministry which we have been doing in the area surrounding HOPE, or for the HOPE Manna Program, according to your designation of the funds (a few donors give specifically for the HOPE MP, while most of the rest give for the widows ministry in general). The enlarging of the widows ministry which we are doing now is mostly being sponsored by this new American donor. Pray the Lord will give us discernment as we move forward to help the needy and minister to them in JESUS' Name.
There's other prayer needs mentioned in the June newsletter, the main one being for the Morning Star ministry, which we have been assisting for the last 6 years or so. This is a time of exposing and change, and I'm confident the Lord is establishing good ministry here in India which we can trust. I thank GOD that He is a "Refiner's Fire" and that He purifies His people via the trials and tribulations which we experience (Malachi 3:1-3). Fire doesn't feel good, but in the Spirit the fire of His Word and dealings is driving away the impurities that may exist within our characters and/or ministry, so that His way will prevail in all that we do, and so that He alone will be exalted. Please read the newsletter, and pray for the ministry here.
Bless you, and thanks always for your love, prayers and support!
Dan, RHM
