Ministry to Children in the Philippines
The children were so happy to receive new toothbrushes and small tubes of toothpaste. As hard as it is for us to believe, it is not unusual for us to find that an entire family uses the same toothbrush and they have no toothpaste. For the children to receive their own toothbrushes and tube of toothpaste is more special than we could understand. Our thanks to the dentist in Texas who gave hundreds of them for the children.
Many of the children who received the gifts that day are still not in school. Their families are too poor to pay for the requirements so the children cannot go to school. They grow up uneducated and are destined to repeat the cycle of poverty. Education breaks the cycle of poverty. For only a small amount, you can provide everything needed for children to go to school and change their lives.
If you have thought about sponsoring children, now is the time. Preparations are now being made for a new school year that begin the first week of June. We need sponsors and funds now for the children.
