Please Pray For Precious Child - Daniel


Dr.Jorge and CMM Family,

We have an orphan in the care of our children's home named Daniel. He is 12 years old. Both of his parents passed away due to AIDS. LLM has taken on the care of this boy and his upbringing with the Love of Jesus. He has been with LLM for the past 4 years. Suddenly, he got an eye infection. Both of his eyes are so watery. One of them is not working properly, resulting in poor eyesight. He has become nearsighted but sadly can not read properly either. Today we took him to the doctor. The doctor recommended treatment for both eyes and that he get a pair of glasses. Would you please pray for little Daniel and stand with us for him? We believe in God's healing touch. I encouraged him with the word of God. We all prayed for him and encouraged him to trust in Jesus for his healing.

Thank you so much for standing with us.

In His service,
Jai&Yori.

T-Shirt Shop To Raise Money And A New LLM Member


Dr. Jorge and CMM Family,

Thanks for your reply. First of all, we have to rent a room for the shop and decorate it nicely in order to get more customers. And also we have to do some publicity in surrounding areas before we start selling the T-shirts. So we need at least $2,500 for starting the business. As the time goes by and everything goes smoothly we will increase our business.Tomorrow I am going to have a meeting with my co-workers regarding this. I will let you know if any changes are made.

I am glad to share with you that one of our co-workers went for further study. Today is his graduation. He will be joining the LLM team shortly doing field work among tribal people. His name is Anand Paul. He is very committed to serving the Lord. We are planning to send him as a pioneer in the work among the tribal people in remote jungle places as well as a supervisor of the field. We need to support him on a monthly basis.

My respected brother Jorge, I humbly request you to raise up some support for these tribal missionaries. This will be a great blessing.
If you are able to raise up at least $300-400 per month for all 11 co-workers, then we can provide them the support they need. This would greatly increase the effectiveness of the ministry. They can serve the Lord more efficiently and have proper meals on a day to day basis.

We really appreciate you so much for all your hard work for the extension of His kingdom. Thank you so much. We love you.

Looking forward to hear from you,
In His field,
Jai&Yori.

Building Project And Children's Home Update


Dr.Jorge and CMM family,

Thanks a lot for your e-mail. Yes, I replied to brother Clifford Jones' e-mail. Thank you so much for the Xoom information. I got the money. Thank you so much for all your prayers and support. I am so happy when I hear that you are working on the Church building project. Yes, indeed we are in desperate need of the church building in order to worship the Lord. Thank you so much for standing with us during this project. We deeply appreciate you my brother Dr.Jorge. Thank you once again.

Today we were able to give the orphan Satyavathi's brother and grand father some food and drinking water. Our LLM Gospel Team helped so much in this service. We also consoled the family with the word of God and prayed for them after little Satyavathi's death on Sunday. We are planning to take Satyavathi's brother into our orphanage in spite of many financial challenges.

We are happy to tell you that one of our orphans, Daniel, had a birth day celebrated today with our children in the Home. Little Daniel's parents were killed due to AIDS. He comes from tribal groups. He is studying 7th standard now. He has been growing nicely in the presence of God and with good character.

We are so happy to see our children, growing in the Lord in spite of many financial struggles. Please continue to pray and stand with us for the work of God here in India. Especially with the Church building project and Compound wall. You are a great blessing for us. We love you.

In His service,
Jai&Yori

Precious Child With Unknown Family Origin Brought To Us In Our Orphanage

Hello Dear Friends,

This week we had our hearts broken once again. A little girl, maybe 4 years old, speaking a tribal tongue from the rural area was dropped off by a stranger who found her along the side of the road. She did not know her village name. We have reported her to the police but often when they don't know the child they ask us to watch them and care for them until a family or someone knows them to show up. Often, no one comes. We can not say no to the children with no past. We extend grace and the love as if they were our own and we see how they are so hungry and thirsty and needy of love and affection.

Though we don't have enough to feed our own children and orphans and right now we are very behind on all the childrens school fees, we know somehow God will provide. Will you pray for some rice and vegetables for our hungry children? Please come and visit us when you can to share the love in your heart with these needy ones, tender and pure.

We have been blessed with a piece of land and now we need to put a fence to keep out those who are violent or harmful to these young lives. We have been given a vision for a church on this land to show and share the love of God. Pray for God's protection in this place often hostile to Christians. Will you pray?

Thank you,
Jai and Yori,

Reaching A Lost Soul On A Train--Jesus Is On Board!

 
Dear Friends,

   How are you? Hope you got my last e-mail.
   God has been doing so much through our lives and all the family of LLM,India. It is because of your prayers and support.
    I am very much excited to share with you that I could share the Gospel to an  orthodox hindu man while I was travelling in the local train. His name is 'Veerabadhraiah'. He never heard the gospel of Jesus. He was all alone, sitting in the train  and he was getting ready to get down within a hour. So, the Holy Spirit inspires me to share to the Gospel of Jesus to him before he left the train.
    With the help of the Holy Spirit, I took courage and started to converse with him about his life and job. After that I could share the Gospel of Jesus and the important of salvation. Finally he could ACCEPT THE LORD JESUS AS HIS PERSONAL SAVIOR. Praise God.
   I am so  much happy to see the orthodox hindu man to listen to the Gospel and obey to the Word. My heart is so happy now.
         PRAISE GOD!!!
  Let us use every opportunity  to share the Gospel to the lost souls in these last days.
            Please continue to pray and support us and the work of God, so that we can reach more effectively. Thanks.
                  Our prayers are with you.
                  Today our son is discharged from the hospital. But still he has to go for an anti-biotic injections another two days. Every day I have to take him to the hospital. He is getting better. Praise God. Thank you so much for all your prayers.
                         In His field,
                        your brother in Christ,
                              Jai&Yori.
Note:  What you think about the idea  of the T-shirts shop and functions' hall? I am looking forward to hear from you.
   Please look at the pictures of Water Baptism on Sunday given &  pastor Jai Babu sharing the gospel of Jesus to the Hindu man in the local train.

A Story of Prayer, And Special Needs


Dear family of God,

Please read with a heart of PRAYER AND HONESTY.

May the Holy Spirit speak to your heart and not to your mind. This is what I pray as you read this story:

A voyaging ship was wrecked during a storm at sea and only two of the men on it were able to swim to a small, desert like island. The two survivors, not knowing what else to do, agree that they had no other recourse but to pray to God. However, to find out whose prayer was more powerful, they agreed to divide the territory between them and stay on opposite sides of the island. The first thing they prayed for was food. The next morning, the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree on his side of the land, and he was able to eat its fruit. The other man's parcel of land remained barren.

After a week, the first man was lonely and he decided to pray for a wife. The next day, another ship was wrecked, and the only survivor was a woman who swam to his side of the land. On the other side of the island, there was nothing. Soon the first man prayed for a house, clothes, more food. The next day, like magic, all of these were given to him. However, the second man still had nothing.

Finally, the first man prayed for a ship, so that he and his wife could leave the island. In the morning, he found a ship docked at his side of the island. The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island. He considered the other man unworthy to receive God's blessings, since none of his prayers had been answered. As the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from heaven booming, "Why are you leaving your companion on the island?"

"My blessings are mine alone, since I was the one who prayed for them," the first man answered. "His prayers were all unanswered and so he does not deserve anything."

"You are mistaken!" the voice rebuked him! "He had only one prayer, which I answered. If not for that, you would not have received any of my blessings."

"Tell me," the first man asked the voice, "what did he pray for that I should owe him anything?"

"He prayed that all your prayers be answered. "

For all we know, our blessings are not the fruits of our prayers alone, but those of another praying for us. This is too good not to share. With obedience come blessings. My prayer for you today is that all your prayers are answered. Be blessed. "What you do for others is more important than what you do for yourself."

Let us pray for one another and help the needy and the lost.
Hope to hear from you.

In His harvest,
Jai&Yori

Prayer Requests:

Jaya Prakash, one of our Children's Home kids, is sick. He has gastric pain and an acidity problem. Please remember him in your prayers.
One innocent girl named Satyavathi has HIV/AIDS and TB. She is only 12 years old. She lives along the road side. She is an orphan girl. She seems to be in her last days. Today we are fasting and praying at our Children's Home with the LLM Gospel Team that for this precious child of God. Please uphold this innocent girl in your prayers. If anybody wants to help her with some funds for her medicine/treatment, please do. At least she can live for few more months or years. Nothing is impossible with our God. Please continue to pray for her healing.
We have not started our compound wall at our church-land. We have to buy some sand,bricks,cement and iron for this project. Please stand with us in prayer. If anybody is interested in supporting this project it will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you and be blessed.
