Hi everyone! Thank you so much for supporting House of Joy faithfully. I wanted to introduce you to the new members of the family.
What do the kids in your home call you?

What would you like your home to be like five years from now?

Spotlight on Krishna Veni
Pavithra, Krishna Veni, and Sri Lakhsmi came to House of Joy in 2021. Their mother is suffering from tuberculosis and is too weak to care for the girls. Their father is a daily laborer and cannot make enough money on his own to provide for them. Because of this, their father brought them to House of Joy. Since arriving, no one has come to visit the girls. Krishna Veni likes to sing and is a good student. Please pray for her health, as she is anemic. Please also pray for the girls and their parents and that they will be able to return home.

Spotlight on Sri Lakshmi
Age: 7
Birthday: June 8
Sri Lakshmi and her two sisters were brought to House of Joy by their father. Their mother is very ill and with no other family support, he found the burden of caring for his wife and the girls, while working to provide for everyone, to be too much. Please pray that the family will find some way to be reunited and that they will all come to trust in Jesus.
