Face of My Father Children's Home (Mexico)
Face of My Father website
Tod and Kristi Ramey and their three daughters have moved to a small town near Guadalajara, Mexico to start a children's home in conjunction with a well-established ministry team. The primary focus is to care for children in need.
And Jesus called a little child unto him and set him in the midst of them, and said, "Verily I say unto you, except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me." Matthew 18:2-5

Another Hope, Uganda

Microfinance
Microfinance, sometimes called microcredit or microloans, is often the only way people in the developing world can begin to make a living for themselves. Our ministry partners offer small cash loans to start a business, or they provide the raw materials and training to get someone started in a business. For example, in a remote village in India, women are learning how to make laundry soap. With the profits from their sales, they pay for their materials and feed their families. Another group of women in far North India is learning how to sew and make candles. This is a tangible way for people to experience the love and concern of Jesus in their lives.
Your gift toward microfinance starts a process that eventually becomes self sustaining, generating income for years to come. You can't get a better return on an investment!

Sewa Ashram India
From the Sewa Ashram website: "Sewa Ashram is a rehabilitation center for sick, destitute people that has cared for the poorest of the poor since 1997. Regularly our team patrols through the streets of Delhi and picks up those extreme cases who have been abandoned, overlooked or left to die by others. At our community setting, 25 km outside of Delhi, we nurse them back to life by providing free medical care and long-term rehabilitation, including making jewlery to sell. Many of our recovering patients help out with the day to day needs of the Ashram by caring for each other. In this way we run on a humble budged based on compassion and love." We visited this ministry in Delhi and have sold Sewa Ashram's jewlery at our annual Christmas Bazaar.
