Love Of Vietnam Expressed

Helping the poor and needy

www.loveofvietnamexpressed.org

(1 John 3:16-18 NKJV) By this, we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. But whoever has this world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him? My little children let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

Awesome!

That’s what our God is. We have never had so much to do in such a short time. Christmas and New Year is hardly over when Tet comes. Never have so many of you done so much. Not only the large number of you who sent Christmas gifts (or money for gifts), but almost as many sent money to put in red lucky money envelopes for the children on Vietnamese Tet.

Sponsors Needed

Right now, there is a needy child living in poverty who is waiting for a caring person like you. We have many children who need sponsors.

To see these children or to fill out an application go to our web site by clicking child. Without your help, many of these will not finish school. For just $25 a month you can see that the child you choose will break the cycle of poverty by getting a good education, better food, clothing, and shelter. For more information about these children or an application form, you can also contact Reggie, who lives in Danang.

Please pray that we can find sponsors for all our children and put your prayers to work by sharing the need with your church, Sunday School Class, civic club, etc.

PLEASE HELP

Share your love and faith

These children urgently need sponsors who will support a child for $25 a month or the whole family for $40 a month, and will pray for them, write and encourage them.

(Psa 41:1-3 NKJV) Blessed is he who considers the poor; The LORD will deliver him in time of trouble. The LORD will preserve him and keep him alive, And he will be blessed on the earth; You will not deliver him to the will of his enemies. The LORD will strengthen him on his bed of illness; You will sustain him on his sickbed.

About me:

My family is in difficult circumstances. My dad was seriously sick and passed away leaving us and my mother. My mother is a street vendor- selling soup. She is working really hard now to get food for us all and keep us in school. I would love to take some extra classes to enrich my knowledge but my mother can not afford that. I am hoping for a sponsor who can make our schooling easier. Many deeply thanks from me and my family.
