This was a proud moment for all of us! In 2006 these three HIV positive patients were barely alive, but with the help of Canadian sponsors they are alive and well and now able to fully support themselves through a trade! Thank you to the individual sponsors, but also a big thank you goes to those who have kept donating to Hope for Tomorrow even when their own patient was no longer on the program. Extra funds were needed for school and exam fees for these ones, so your help has resulted in accomplished career goals for these three people. Now, it is up to them to work hard so they can continue to help their families and others!

Deuteronomy 24: 19 – 22 When you are harvesting your crops and forget to bring in a bundle of grain from your field, don’t go back to get it. Leave it for the foreigners, orphans and widows. Then the Lord your God will bless you in all you do. Keep Reading!! God expects us to do all we can to help the needy. We are not isolated from the poor, they are our neighbours!

Thanks for sharing your harvest!!
