The Aged,
Infirmed and Widowed:
B. Esudas' mission has a
number of goals set before him. There is an immediate and
urgent need for the caring of aged, infirmed and widowed in the
various congregations where Esudas works.
Many members of the Lord's
church in India are suffering from extreme poverty. Their
age and infirmities make it impossible to earn a wage so they
are neglected by the population in general. Many are left
to live in thatch and mud huts, some live under the porches of
their in-laws.
These neglected souls are
unable to earn for themselves enough money to provide adequate
nourishment. Esudas
has begun the work of feeding these Christians in Subbaiahpalem.
Plans are
underway to start feeding the aged widows and the infirmed
members in the church of Christ in
Makkenavaripalem. The
necessary funds for this are not available at this time so it is
not possible to begin this work without jeopardizing the work in Subbaiahpalem.
It is the goal of Esudas to
expand the program to include the saints in
Makkenavaripalem as
soon as possible. Every day it is delayed is another day
man of these Christians are not able to eat. We request your prayers as we strive to help meet
the needs of these Christians who are impoverished and in need.
Galatians 6:10
As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all
men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
Matthew 25:35-36, "For
I was an hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye
gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked,
and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in
prison, and ye came unto me".
