thank you

ok, you can stop giving now! good news-we have recieved above what we asked for, and we won't be asking you for anymore money (at least not in this scenario). seriously, thank you, to anyone and everyone who gave to a cause that you probably didn't really understand and that was undeniably shady, at least from your perspective. just know that your donations may have spared one to three imprisonments, certainly banned visas, and most importantly 35+ boys from being forced back into poor family situations or no home at all. you have helped us to respect the culture we're in and to demonstrate Love in a most unusual way. so thanks for that. it's not easy to be asked for money from a phone call or a computer screen for a situation you may feel very detached from. but thank you for giving anyway, along side our own personal donations, and for letting me feel bound in the support of those who love me and/or those who love the Father i serve. i really believe He did the giving for us.

thanks again. and happy new year!

Greetings Grace,
Burky here, just wanted to let you know we are praying for you. New years eve we had 23 people in our prayer room CALLING ON GOD FOR HIS GRACE (God's ability in you to do what you can't on your own) and for protection and wisdom. We admire your courage and willingness to be the hands and feet of a loving God. Seek Him and listen to the Holy Spirit as he directs and guides you. Be blessed!
Kevin and family
