News from Kyrgyzstan - Outdoor Eating Area
Thursday, June 25, 2009 at 12:09PM
Foundation was begun the afternoon I bought supplies!I have been in Kyrgystan for the past month serving in an orphanage. I recently arrived in India - please keep me in your prayers, water has been scarce.
Because 96% of Kyrgyzstan is mountainous, the sun is strong and summers days are very hot. The orphanage does not have air conditioning, and cooking in the kitchen makes the building hot. They want an outdoor patio with a light shelter (a metal frame covered with tarp which will be removed in the winter) with a cooking area/sink so they can cook and clean up outside and keep the heat out of the orphanage.
I have experienced baking in the sun while eating outside. At the beginning of June on the holiday "Day of Protecting Children" a group of policemen and government officials came to bring cakes and toys for the children. The local news crew interviewed Gena and Sveta, the Papa and Mama there and videoed the officials and policemen handing out toys. The sun was hot and bright and after being in the sun for one hour I got sun poisoning.
When I asked them what project I could help them with this trip, they wanted me to buy the materials and pay
Kids Squinting Because Sun So Bright for the labour to build this patio. Hope for Tomorrow has a policy it doesn’t give money to charities, but buys the materials. Two days ago I bought the materials and that very afternoon they started digging the foundation.

I'm very much impressed by your bold step as a young woman to contribute so much to the Kingdom of our Heavenly Father. It's so rare to come to know woman/man of God of your magnitude. I happened to be a person who also failed to enrolled with CBC, the past 4 years. Knowing that it's the best thing to do. Andrew Wommack is truly a minister callecd by God to lay the right foundation to the world according to the Bible. He's my spiritual father and I love him.
I completed a 2 year course from Crenshaw Christian Center Bible Institute Namibian Branch In 2006. It was founded by DR. Fred K.C. Price and I had never looked back ever since. My best scriptures are: Matt. 6:33, 2 Cor. 5:7 and Gal 3:11. I'm 43 year old single, spirit filled, devil stopping minister of the Word of God. I saw you on TBN and had also started a youth ministry for the poor and vulnerable kids few months back. I wish to get married to somebody just like you someday. A woman who love people especially a woman who loves the poor, orphans, widows and strangers. After-all, I believe we've been commanded by God, to take care of such isn't? I glorify the Lord and God whom you fear as well as serve. Continue doing good and remember we in Faith Home Ministries in Namibia/Africa keeps you all in prayer.
God be with you and Shalom
Yours in Christ,
Ben
