Children's Support Program ~ development
We have been sponsoring street children in order to enable them go to school for several years now and see such great need we desire to help other underprivileged kids. Together with two local underground churches in Vietnam we are starting a sponsorship program to directly help Christian children in great need. This is not an expensive program but if you would like to help change a life, you can.
These children and their families have no opportunity to get help and encouragement from anywhere else, so all we ask of you is for you to be willing to give either monthly, six-monthly, annually or even a one-off donation. You will make a real and lasting difference to their lives! We will keep you updated on the child and family once a year and trust you will pray for them regularly.
We have several projects we are supporting alongside the local Vietnamese church:
Shelters in South Vietnam
The Shalom House was started in January 2004.
It currently houses ten children, all of whom have come from very poor
living conditions. Many of them have experienced a life of abuse, neglect,
and most of all, a world with no hope. The Shalom House is a place where
the children will have food, clothes, and schooling provided for them.
Most of all, they will receive the love of Jesus and the hope of a new
life. This house has no regular income, and is made possible by CMIAsia
sponsorship of the children.
House of Hope
The
realization
of the dream of one young man with great vision has come about
with
a faith partnership between a British church and an
underground church
in Vietnam. The House of Hope orphanage was built in 2004 and currently has 8 kids living there as part of a big family. The home is used to love the kids, provide
them with a caring environment and to allow them to grow up to be men and
women of God reaching
out to others in their region.
Individual Sponsorship
Of Children In Need
Sponsorship of a
child is $25 per month (£15 - £20) or individual donations
or smaller amounts are readily accepted - every little counts!
Leadership Training and Outreach Projects
There is a great need for the rapidly growing church in Asia for good, sound teaching. This has proven difficult in the past due to inexperienced leaders, the rapid growth of the church, and little resources in the local language. Good teaching is still desperately needed. If you are a recognized teacher willing to train groups of pastors and leaders then please consider joining us to help equip these hungry Christians.
Training In Cambodia And Vietnam
CMIAsia is working with a Vietnamese church which has a burden to plant churches in Cambodia with a strong, firm foundation. CMIAsia has committed to help with four training programs per year.
Can you help with:
Training (if you are a recognized pastor or teacher)
Sponsor a training course ($900 or £550)
This will enable 25 pastors to attend attend a three-day training course in the city, including food, accommodation and travel costs.
Village Church In Cambodia
CMIAsia is committed to help build a church which will also be used as a regional training centre in a remote border village near Vietnam. The church building will cost approximately $6,000.
The building should be completed during 2004. An additional $1300 is needed to reach our target for the building, can you help?
