MINISTRY PARTNERS

SOON to see a little boy...Katya has been our primary Life Skill Teacher - teaching at Red River Orphanage and Chui Orphanage - that task is now being conducted by one of our LAMb staff - Tanya! |
|
Our ministry partners in Kyrgyzstan Katya and Andre! Andre has set the Jeremiah boys up with a chicken business - they are bringing in 60 eggs a day. We asked about getting some eggs - "you need to place an order - we have lots of customers!" They have saved funds to do things as a Jeremiah family!
JEREMIAH HOUSE YOUTH SPAGETTI SUPPER |
|
Spagetti supper with three of our Jeremiah Boys... Janybeck - 1st year University Omerbeck and Samuel - 1st year College |
|
Lynn had the boys think about 10 year from now and draw their dreams. Amazing revelation on their hearts desire. Omerbeck sees himself in 10 years - working with Jeremiah Youth along with others he has built relationships along the way. All the young men want to complete their educations. Jeremiah House is for boys wanting to continue on in school who have left life from a hard place. Very proud of these young men.

That's right - she won the Miss Tokmok contest. She is a student at the International University of Central Asia - and she is majoring in linguistics. She knows Russian, Kyrgyz and German! |
|
Party over - and we had so much fun - Lynn hid in the other room all night!
SVETA'S LIFE SKILL JOURNEY |
We are so proud of Sveta, as she is doing so well in her Technical School. She is asking if she might continue on to do another course after she graduates. Last summer she asked us for a phone. We suggested to her that what ever she could save from the sales of the sunflower seeds she peeled or the freezer pops she made, we would match this and together we would buy her phone. She has raised 1500 com - which is about $19. With the match, she will have $38. She wants to wait a little longer and save a little more. YES!!!! Life Skills in action!
FOOD BASKET DELIVERY BY JEREMIAH AND DAYSPRING GIRLS
|
Learning to serve is more important than learning to receive. We want for all our youth to learn to serve. Putting together the baskets, taking them to give and waiting for their own gifts is all part of learning to serve. And they found it cam with joy and blessings. |
|
Annya home with her mother and brothers is a major blessing over and over again. Olga believed in this family and reunification came about as a result. They are solid! They do need a large cazan (cooking pot) as mom only has one pan and it is small. In addition, she is doing laundry for her large family in a sink. A washing machine would be awesome - we put water in the home a while back in order to facilitate the reunification. |
|
Snjanna being home with her sister is an amazing story. The food basket and bag was a blessing and then she and her sister and sisters son joined us for Christmas dinner.
JEREMIAH HOUSE PLAN |
|
Many hours pouring over the house at Jeremiah. We do not have a place where the family can eat together - and the heating is a problem and likely dangerous. We did a few renovations to the heating, but need to complete the job and make the changes needed. More about this as time progresses. We have a complete plan with contractors prices and will be praying for the provisions to make this happen.

We thank you so much for making this all possible.
