Giving Joy

One of the things I absolutely love about being the Hand of Hope International Relations Officer, and there are so many, is the time I get to spend visiting Hand of Hope sponsored children’s homes and feeding programs around the world. I just love getting to see the children whose lives are being restored because they now have a safe place to call home, good nutritious meals, the support of people who genuinely care for them, and the knowledge that Jesus loves them. Without these children’s homes and feeding programs, many of these children would be homeless, orphaned, going hungry, or even trafficked. But, because of your support these children are now happy, healthy and have hope for their futures. 

Last month we had a Christmas party for 250 of these precious children in Thailand. The children were served a special meal and received gifts of new sweat suits and toys. The children had so much fun playing games and being entertained by a special program. It is such an honor for us to share the love of Christ with these children and give them so much joy!
