Orphans First Prayer February 26th, 2002
DON'T MISS OUT ON THESE.............................................
********************************
Why do we all see so differently? How can we grow in empathy, in
true love which sees through the eyes of Jesus? Order my new booklet,
"Women (& Men) In Dark Glasses", graciously prefaced by Dr. Carl H.
Stevens, on the GGWO online bookstore at this address: GGWO.org (Just
click on "bookstore" when you get to the general GGWO site).
World famous bass-guitarist, Dominique DiPiazza (formerly with the
John McLaughlin Trio prior to his conversion and studies at our Theological
Institute) has brought out a brand new CD of melodious guitar hymns. Ten
percent of the sales go to Orphans First. Dominique is not only a genius
but works closely with O.F. Check out Dominiquedipiazza.com

Dear Prayer Family,
RUSSIA
The photos of the Christmas pantomime and giving gifts to over
3,000 orphans in St.Pete prove God's faithfulness to hear your prayers.
Remember, this was the ONLY present these children received, thanks to
your prayers and generous giving. I hope to place some photos of these on
the website soon.
Many have asked how to help with the childen who are cold in St.
Petersburg? Let's just say, we're talking about 3, 400 orphans in St. Pete
alone, not counting street children nor all the millions of other cold
orphans. I'm lost on this. We did help one orphanage and will be checking
to see if the things we bought for them are still there. You see, the
workers themselves are so poor, they tend to steal what is given to the
orphans. The problem is political but it's the children who suffer. I
don't know where to begin helping but I think serious prayer is priority.
Please continue praying, and especially for the childen needing to be
adopted. Some names include! Andrei & Lida, Valery, Sacha, Sacha, D***,
but there are many, many, many more.
FRANCE
Pedophile networks where films of torturous child rape are being
discovered. Tiny babies are seen on videos screaming while their tiny
bodies are being torn by the most perverted form of lust. This is Satan's
work and much, much prayer is needed to protect children. Pray.
Meanwhile, a faithful teen from our church here recently lost a
classmate in a horrifying way. She and her tiny sister and her mother were
killed by the father, who then suicided. Meanwhile, one of the close
friends of the murdured girl had himself recently previously tried suicide.
One young man we are ministering to has failed six suicide attempts.
Suicide is the number one cause of death amongst young people here in
France. This atheist country, which has ironically opened its doors wide
to Islam, offers no hope.
INDIA and ASIA
Nothing new except to continue praying for breakthroughs for the
children still in the streets. Pray for one special "son", Benjamin, who
used to be in Grace Home. Now about 16, he works in the fields and writes
to us in limited English. Pray for God's protection over him. Pray for
Bramhon, Mukesh, Vijay, Arun, Pankaj, Kishan, Chetan, Ashok, Gorawaiah,
for a boy at Hyderabad airport who I witnessed being beaten before my eyes
a few years back........and for many more.
Remember the children freezing cold and hungry in Afghanistan, the
child-slaves and in Pakistan. Pray for the millions of abandonned orphans
in China, child-prostitutes in Thailand........and in so many countries.
WORLDWIDE
How can we pray for an entire world of suffering children? May God
show us how to pray for childen being abused, starving, terrified, cold,
sick, abandonned, lonely, exploited and even tortured in some
places.......
May we learn to pray as never before.
