Summer Ministry Opportunity
-------------------------------------
Dear Supporter;
Remember has recently undertaken support of the Christian Children’s Home, an orphanage housing approximately 50 orphans. Earlier this year, Remember sent a team to Burma in to visit the children and survey the needs of the orphanage.
Despite the political climate in Burma, the orphanage operates with full government permission and the work of God is clearly being accomplished through Pastor Paul and a couple who live at the simple facility.
Many of the children shared with us heartbreaking stories of their fathers who were pastors or church leaders who were brutally killed for their faith. Some of the children do have a surviving mother who is unable to care for them or provide them an education.
The children are in seemingly good physical condition. They are bright, cheerful, and well disciplined. However, they have no medical care, and a few children have serious medical needs. The local hospital has no medication and no Doctor on staff. Also, the orphanage facilities are in need of improvements and expansion. Most of all, we want the children in the Christian Children’s Home to know that they are loved and to see them grow in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
Remember is planning and preparing for an in-country ministry at the children’s home during June 19th-29th, 2010. Our goal is to take a team of approximately 12 people to do construction and repair on the existing kitchen and adjoining buildings, install a water purification system, and build some fences for the future procurement of livestock. Additionally, we will conduct a medical clinic for the children of both orphanages as well as the families of Pastor Paul’s church. We welcome Christians who have a heart for the persecuted church to apply for this ministry. Priority will be given to those with medical skills, construction skills, or ability to work with children.
If you are interested in participating in this ministry, please contact us immediately via e-mail at info@rememberthose.org or visit our website to download an application.
Cost of the trip is approximately $2,000 and space is limited, so please indicate your interest as soon as possible.
We hope to collect items to take to Burma as well as raise money to purchase some of the needed items in country:
- Children’s shoes (flip flops) and clothes
- Rain coats/umbrellas for the children
- Small gifts, toys, and hygiene items
- Medical supplies and multivitamins
- Purchase and installation of a water purification system
- Purchase of adjoining field and farm animals for food and vocational training for the children
- Musical instruments
- Construction supplies to build a kitchen in the current facility
All monies designated for the Christian Children’s Home will go 100% to meeting the needs of the Home. We look forward to working with you in meeting the needs of the Christian Children's Home. Sincerely, Danielle Walker |
