THANKSGIVING 2006

Dear Friends,                                     

Praise be to God our Loving Father who is able to sustain us each day by His unconditional love and mercy. Thank you so much for partnering with us in His harvest field in these crucial days.

Our world is changing much faster than we can ever imagine, yet the Word of our Father remains unchanged. The Lord assures us in Romans 8, “If God is for us  then who can be against us, He who did not spare His Own Son, but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also along with Him graciously give us all things?”

Yes God Did it ... His Way...

When we began praying for the Ministry Center in Pune India, I had put few suggestions to the Lord regarding how He could go about in helping us out… in  the mean time I had almost forgotten the old hymn that goes something like this…Have Thine own way Lord… Have Thine own way… As I began reasoning with the Lord, I told Him, Lord this is really not a big deal for you, if you could just speak to one or two rich guys this can be done in no time!!  No answer! Then I suggested… How about you speak to eight people who can contribute at least $1,000 each ...No Answer, after some time I suggested… How about sixteen people Lord, who  can contribute only $500 each… Nothing happened, I started getting little concern as the day of my departure was getting closer. My suggestions were useless, it didn’t work!! Finally I started praying… Father I don’t know how its going to work out but please You take control Lord, I surrender everything to you.

I was to leave for India on 28th February and on 26th The Lord had provided all the funds we needed for  the  Ministry  Center. Thank you Father for your Faithfulness. God  had 44 individuals and 4 Churches in His mind when He was working  out His plan, Thank you dear partners for allowing God to  use you in His amazing plan.

On the 7th April all the paper work was completed for the Ministry Center and about 45 little children knelt down with us in the Ministry Center to Thank God for His provision and to dedicate this place for His glory.

I wish you were there to witness the joy and the excitement of these precious Children. Yes GOD did it… “This is the Lord’s doing and it is marvelous in our sight”

The Lord is bringing in many needy Children each day. At the same time God is using our first batch of Children as little Missionaries to share His love  in the slum area. God is  changing the  lives of their  parents and relatives. Please remember them in your prayers.


JOY OF VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL

 
25th-29th April We had  a tremendous time of Blessing during the  five days of  VBS. One of our  Pastor friend allowed us to use the Church. We Thank God for using the team of Servant’s Heart to minister to120 Children during the VBS. Children enjoyed the time of Worship with Spirit filled Singing and Bible Devotion.

They did various craft activities depicting the beautiful creation of the Lord. We join our hearts with King David as he   proclaims in Ps. 86:12-13 “ I will Praise you O Lord my God With all my heart, I will Glorify your name forever. For great is your Love Toward me. You have delivered me from the depths of the grave.”

Yes everyday we experience God’s Faithfulness and Goodness. There is a hurting world out there. It is the home of billions of precious people for whom Christ died. Everywhere His Children are hurting and many are blinded and bound by Satan. What a privilege we have been given by God to be able to spend our lives in giving His love away. Thank you for the ways you invest your life in the lives of others.

Please let me know how you are doing and how we can pray for you. I would love to hear  from you, my cell number is 719-232-6470. I’ll be here until Thanksgiving. 

On behalf of the many precious children in  India, let me say a big heartfelt Thank You, may you continue to grow in the love and grace of our  loving Lord Jesus. Thank you for your love and prayers.

Your servant in Him,



Suresh Manohar
