Subic Bay Children's Home Receives 100% of Your Donation
"A Paradise for the Kids"
Every week in our updates we will give you a little history of one of the children at the home.  This weeks child is Daniel Andres. 
 
 
 
 
Daniel Andres was one month old when he was first admitted to an orphanage.  He had suffered a lot physically at an early age and was an off and on patient of National Children's Hospital.

Upon admission to the orphanage,  Daniel's physical condition was poor.  He was very thin and had difficulty breathing.  Immediately the home gave him medical assistance.  The home provided him with food, clothing, and shelter and also medicine and vitamins. When Daniel celebrated his first birthday at the home, he could already stand and walk alone.  He learned a lot in the home and grew up in a good atmosphere. 
 
Daniel was 8 years old when he was transferred from the Asian Children's Foundation to Subic Bay Children's Home.  Daniel was very thin and malnourished when he arrived.  We immediately provided medical assistance.

Daniel is now a healthy young boy and is studying at Subic Bay Christian Academy.  He participates in all activties and receives spiritual guidance.  We are praying that he will learn to serve God and be a good citizen in our community.

You may remember a little boy taken into the home several months ago named John Lloyd who was so severely malnourished that he had to be taken to the hospital immediately. 
 
He has has gained weight and strength and is doing very well. Thanks to all who have prayed for little John Lloyd.
 
"Shoes for Orphans" 
To fulfill what seems to be a constant need for the children's home we are starting a "Shoes for Orphans" program.  Here is what we want to do.
 
We want to collect: 
  • flip-flops
  • tennis shoes
  • dress shoes  
ANY SIZE OR COLOR - BOYS AND GIRLS - NEW OR GOOD USED
 
All we need is to have everyone to get their family, friends, and church involved and gather up all those shoes that your kids or grandkids have outgrown or didn't like and mail them to us.  We will take care of the rest.
 
Mail shoes to:
 
Gateway Baptist Church
4070 Macon Road
Memphis, TN 38122
 
If you have any questions about the program call or email me:
901-486-4003   mark@subicbaykids.org
 
PS  Also socks are very much needed whether new or used.
