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.

Something to think about: “If”

Article by

Nguyen Phuong Nam, LOVE representative

If you say, "Go, I wish you well, keep warm and well fed," but do nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?

If you say, "I you love you," but don’t express it by what you do, then that kind of love is worthless.

In fact, it isn’t even real love.

If you have material possessions and see your brothers in need but you feel no compassion for him, then what is it for, what is your life purpose for?

Most people who live in affluence for all of life can easily become so accustomed to wealth, blessings, and prosperity; they can easily forget what blessings they actually have. What if those possessions are taken away one day? Will you certainly look at life with a new perspective, realizing how much you really had?

Now it’s time to think about “do”

Below are some of the many gifts provided by our sponsors

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 Bảo Chi / 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.

(Ezekiel 16:49 NKJV) "Look, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: She and her daughter had pride, fullness of food, and abundance of idleness; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

(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.
