Hello Friend,
I wanted to alert you to something that's happening right now that you might not be aware of.
In a remote region of Southeast Asia, nearly one million people live under the control of a Communist rebel army cartel. Families in every village are forced to give up their children—often the youngest and most vulnerable—to fill the army's ranks.
Children as young as five years old are taken from their homes and raised in army barracks, knowing only hardship, fear, and violence. They grow up in an environment of war, abandoned by those who should have protected them.
But by God's grace, nearly 100 of these children have been rescued.
Now safe from conscription, these children no longer live in fear of war. But their journey is far from over. They have no families to return to, no place to call home, and no way to provide for themselves.
Will you help provide care for these children?
We've set a goal to raise $50,000 by the end of this month to provide food, shelter, education, trauma care, and the love of Christ to these young survivors. This urgent need cannot wait—and we believe God will provide through the generosity of our local partners.
Jesus calls us to protect and provide for the vulnerable. Your generosity ensures these children have the resources they need to heal and build a future filled with hope.
"Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God." – Luke 18:16
These children have endured the unimaginable, but they are not forgotten. You can be part of God's redemption in their lives.
Every gift matters. Every dollar helps provide care, education, and the love of Christ to a child who has suffered so much. Will you give today to help restore their future?

Thank you for standing with these children in their time of need. Your faithfulness is changing lives.
In Christ,
