Building Approvals

Good News… Paul and Grace have been given approval to go ahead with building the orphanage. This is an email from Grace:

“All glory and honour to our God……We got the government approvals to build our own orphanage.

For the past one year we have been struggling and fighting all odds to get government approvals to build our own orphanage for the children at the Sangita land. During this period many times we almost gave up… as the system was so corrupt and we could not stand up to it. Many of our close friends and well wishers have been praying for this and we only trusted in God and prayed to him to make this possible in His own time. Today we have the approvals and we plan to start the first building block immediately with the funds that we have.

We thank you so much for being with us and request your prayers that the buildings come up soon and that we find the favour and funds to complete the full project as soon as possible. It’s absolutely necessary that the children have their own home.

We have signed the contract with the builders and God willing will commence work on 20th Dec. The first block of the orphanage buildings are expected to be completed in 6 to 8 months time. We are happy the the children can have their own home in maximum 8 months time. The total costs for completetion of the orphanage project is US $ 320 thousand US $. We have with us 120 thousand $. In faith we are commencing the work.

We are all ecited and working hard to have a wonderful and memorable christmas for the children at the orphanage. we are glad that Peter and Shubha will be able to join with us.

Past. Raj is getting traditional silk skirts and blouses stitched for the girls and full length pants and silk shirts for the boys. The kids will be excited to wear these wonderful clothes for christmas. Thanks for all your love and support. We want these kids to have the best in their lives.

For His Services, Grace and Paul.”
