However, this is not the typical Christmas for most people around the world, including here in India. There is a great need here, and this is a call for YOU to step up and be Jesus to the children and staff at Asha House and Asha Mission through giving. Jesus did not come and die so we can sit back and enjoy life. Jesus came and died to save us because we cannot save ourselves, and He has called us to love. That love needs to extend to all people of all nations, including the children of Asha House and Asha Mission.
We, the India team, are asking you to be Jesus to these children and staff by giving. Your giving is not going to useless wants, it’s going to lagitament needs. Here is a list of items that the orphanages have a need for:
Asha House: Asha Mission:
-soap -winter clothes
-shampoo -closed toed shoes
-toothbrushes -sweaters
-mittens -blankets
-hats -bed sheets
-sweaters -new bunk bed
-underwear
Some of these items seem so basic to us, but the means to attain them do not exist for these orphanages. We have included the address and other information t o send money to below. You can be assured that every cent sent in will go to these orphanages for their Christmas.
Please prayerfully consider giving even just a little so that these children will be taken care of as best as possible. PLEASE don’t finish reading this and ignore it as you continue on in your comfortable life while these children continue with so little.
Step up. You have the opportunity to be Jesus to these children.
