Helping Children Miles Away

80% of it's people follow Hinduism. About 13% follow Islam. Among the other religions followed, only 2% know and serve the Lord Jesus Christ. The place...India. But Gleaning For The World (GFTW) has a small part in changing that.

Scott Ray, Convocation Director at Liberty University (LU), is heading up a team of college students heading for India. Just yesterday, Scott and a LU student came to GFTW to sort and pack supplies needed for the trip. Medical and school supplies were provided. Simple toothbrushes and toothpaste will be given to many who have never brushed their teeth their entire lives. Also, 200 pairs of new shoes will be handed out! A simple pair of shoes can help prevent ringworms and other parasites from entering the feet, which would ultimately end up killing a person, if not treated.

These supplies were donated by GFTW and will be distributed to people in need by LU students. This is "earning the right to be heard," as Pastor Jonathan Falwell often states from the sanctuary in Thomas Road Baptist Church. We are providing for the needs and then providing the Gospel. God takes care of the rest. Just another day in the ministry.
