Thank you so much for your support of Jireh. Please enjoy this update!

How do you show your children that you love them without using words?

90% of our ministry photos are us having food together. When I was a child, I often went to bed without food so it is important to me that they know there will always be food

We want to continue to help more children and train them up to be independent adults.

Hi everyone! I wanted to share a bonus update with you. At the beginning of the month, we finally returned to India for the first time in three long years. It was such a huge blessing! Since we were able to visit the home that you support, I wanted to give you a brief update. 

The Jireh kids were the first ones I had the pleasure of connecting with on my first trip and it was so good to see them again, even if for only a short time. We were only able to drop in for a couple of hours on this trip, but it was so worth the visit. It was crazy to see how much all these sweet kids have grown! Additionally, we got to meet Doren, the new house dad at Jireh. Unfortunately, his wife Gune and their children were sick, so I’ll be excited to meet them on our next trip. Thank you for your continued support of Jireh!
