Christmas Giving Opportunities
During the Christmas season, SPT tries to focus on a couple immediate needs in the ministries of our partners. Below are the descriptions of two of those requests. In the midst of the busyness of the holiday season, please do consider giving to one or both of these causes.
Feeding homeless youths in Kampala, Uganda:
One of the women we work with in Kampala called Nakato Allen has a ministry to these young people. They range in age from 6 to 25, sleep on the streets, battle drug use, and lack food and basic necessities. Sister Allen regularly meets with them and shares the Word of God. She is requesting a Christmas package of rice, meat, flour, sugar and soap for each of these 23 young people. Each of these packages would cost £25 to purchase, assemble and distribute.
Ministry to widows and orphans in Kesavaram, India:
One of our Guild members, Babu Rajesh, works with children and widows in India. The 10 children are a mixture of orphans, street children and those suffering from leprosy, TB, or AIDS. Babu provides food, shelter, clothes and Christian education. He also helps 35 widows and aged mothers who are neglected by society and unable to work, providing rice, provisions and medicine and sharing with them the love of Christ. With each donation of £15, Babu will be able to give a Christmas gift of food and clothes to one of the people to whom he ministers.
