Kingdom work



Hi guys!
 I have met so many amazing people here serving the Lord! It’s like the stuff of legends, but it’s real.  I wanted to share one of the many stories I have heard of God working through his  people to share his love. 

Esther Williams feeds orphan babies here in the capital city and surrounding areas. God has laid this on her heart to help save these babies’ lives, she brings the milk to the caretaker who is unable to purchase milk otherwise. Generally the mother has died and the baby is living with a grandmother or aunt, who simply does not have the money to buy formula.  
Sometimes, it is a combination of poverty and ignorance,the baby in the picture was fed nothing but the medicinal tea for the first month after his mother’s death, it is a miracle he is still alive. Esther has made an exception and taken this baby for a week in order to feed him hourly to get him to gain some weight.  It isn’t that his grandmother didn’t care about him, she was just doing what she thought was best.

 God has laid it on Guineans’ hearts to become involved as well, as was the prayer from the beginning. They are now working on the paperwork to become a recognized NGO, but until then they must raise all their own funds, and the team now has over 230 babies. 

This stuff is the real deal, and I really just wanted let you know about this chance to be a part of saving lives! Please pray for this ministry, pray that God will bring more and more Guineans into the ministry, that this work will be done by Guineans whose hearts are moved by the Spirit of God to work for the Kingdom.
 If you want to contribute to this ministry, you can give online at the PBT website at www.pioneerbible.org   click “give” then “give now” then “projects” then “African orphans” 

 Anyway, hope you guys were blessed by this, keep praying! Love you all!
