A thank-you-note to all those who donate to our ministry—specially to those who gave generously this month allowing us to catch up financially for the coming Christmas season… Now, Father, according to Your word, open up the windows of heaven and pour out Your blessing upon these that are tangibly committed with the expansion of Your kingdom in this world..!
