Greetings to you in the wonderful name of our Lord Jesus Christ, by the grace of God we are fine and serving our Lord faithfully for His glory.

As we entered into the new year  with a vision and dream to accomplish some things for God and equip the believers and edify the church, by doing all these things there is a great JOY in the Lord as J for Jesus is our Lord  is the priority one, secondly O for others serving loving and giving to other who are lost and in desperate need, thirdly   Y for yourself and family and personal  things..  Joy  in the Lord  as motto we have marched forward  towards the goal as a chronological  and project wise here I am  sharing with you for understanding and praying for this.

Oasis School: There are  250 children were in the school all are studying in English medium, out of 250 there are 150 were come from poor, Dalit and semi-orphan children, so the children are paying the fee for  tuition each one  $80- $240 range per year as tuition fee, there are only 150 children paid rest of them unable to pay the fee,  so that reason the managing committee unable to  pay the salaries of staff and maintain of 2 buses for 4  months. The school is seeking  desperate need of partnership with like-minded people, we have good accommodation and playground  for the children, we have built 7 rooms on the second floor, it is in  the process of completion thank you so much whoever helps  for the construction of 2^nd floor, God bless the families and churches.

 

At the same time we have women empowerment program in the school for every 3 months as parent students and teachers get together to know the   social    and family problems in the villages, so we teach them to how to educated their children, health, and hygiene, how to raise income for families in our own ways with minimum risk and little amount of money.

 

Every month we have Assembly for two hours in the school and teach morals, ethics and goodness and greatness of Christ to all children and staff at the end we distribute Christian literature to all, this is the way we present Christ to our projects. Apart from this year ending we have Christmas celebration, so they play skit about the birth of Jesus and let other know what the Bibles says,

At present there are 6 children were sponsored by different people, except that there is no help for the School
