Past Projects in South Asia

In 2008, funds were given to purchase bicycles for Children's Ministry Center in South Asia. This center was home to 260 children at the time, and the bicycles filled a need for recreational tools to be used along with their educational program. Please pray that this ministry would be effective in leading these children to the Father.
