Sponsorships
We would like to increase our sponsor waiting list.
What is the sponsor waiting list?
This is a list a person it placed on who has expressed thier interest in sponsoring a child, but there is no available child at that moment that needs a sponsor.
We as much as possible like to keep a close relationship between the sponsor and the child and encourage their relationship to carry on after they've left the orphanage. We'd like to see the sponsors help the child into and though college and maybe on through life, because once and orphan they will always be an orphan. We hope that the relationship created between the sponsor and the child can become, in small way something they can call their family. Don't let the word college scare you, it's only $300 to $1000 a year most of the time and a normal sponsor funds can stay pretty much the same and be of great help.
The main reason we don't stack sponsors to a single child, like some larger organizations do.
We do how ever make exceptions where a family wishes to cover half the sponsorship and share their relationship with the child, with another family.
Anyways all that being shared is that our sponsor list is bare, we have no back up sponsors on the list right now.
We do have a 1/2 a sponsorship available right now for an older boy, if a family wishes only to pay $30 month.
We are also praying about taking a few more children and increasing our numbers to possible 44.
In order for us to do that we need to feel that there is always a sponsor ready to help.
So if your interested in placing you name on a waiting list, go to this link and Mary will contact you with details about sponsoring.

One thing that we are asking is that you please pray about this consider the long term relationship with the child before making a commitment.
Lastly you don't have to sponsor a child to be of great help to us, you can help us cover staff salaries.
There is the electric bill too if you want help cover those type needs that aren't as popular and if you wish I'll write you "shocking" little letters from time to time thanking you for that ;).
Thank you for prayerfully considering these needs and letting us know.

Were coming in June
I know its May and your probably rubbing your hands together in anticipation of that PHAT tax return to show up in the mail any day now. Or perhaps you've already gotten it and you have no idea how to put it to it's best use.
We are hoping to get 160 more people to help the school this year giving as little as $100. or more will fund the new buildings and add to some restrooms to the church property.
There is a paypal link on our web page. http://www.agreaterhopeorphanage.org/needs.php
But with a check to the church we receive more of the funds.
A Heart For Wisdom
488 Industrial Way
Fallbrook, Ca 92028
So many people can attest to the great work going on here in Takeo. We always have to give the glory to God and be thankful for those who co-labor with us.
We have a massive amount planned in the next couple months; with the children's vacation, Saveoun to graduate, teams coming and projects to complete. I think there is nearly 75 people scheduled to come this Summer.
Lastly we "the Carson's" are planning to be in USA around June 5th to July 9th. We're working on the plane tickets at the moment. We plan to be in Fallbrook somewhere in the middle of that time. We are open to speaking with anyone who wished to meet with us. Once we get the tickets and the dates are firm we'll announce it and I hate to say it but reservations will probably have to me made. It would be best if much of our meetings could be around the Fallbrook area and neighboring cities. Also due to the lack of time it might be considered that meetings take place in a public setting so that multiple families can gather or invite families to your home. This way we can reach all who wish to be reached with out loosing our voices, also with the baby and our boy it would be helpful especially to Ream.
Ream's desires are to eat at Deny's, Home Town Buffet and Claim Jumper.
Ream would like to take the kids to Sea world, the Zoo and, or Disneyland if possible.
I would enjoy eating a lot of Mexican food and a trip to Costco.
The main purpose of this trip is to speak, share, encourage and inspire you with the work being done here and how your support is making these things possible.
thank you all
Well I am here today to jingle that "can" that says me, me, me!

Thank You For All Your Prayers
Last week we asked for all of your prayers over the alter call that would be giving at our school this past Wednesday. So here is the results of all the hard work and prayers.
These are the children that opened the doors of their hearts and became Christians
I think nearly everyone raised their hands, I even see many of my own children raising their hands. So we had to clarify the next morning in class who was a new believer and wanted to get a bible.
We haven't included 1st or 2nd grade and we haven't been able to speak to the public school kids yet.
Out of the 88 children in grades 3, 4, 5 & 6; 76 have requested a bible. For the children that did not accept Christ Ly, will go over a knowing God study again while the new believers will start a New Believer study.
In a month or so once we have our plans together we should have a baptism. What I think is exciting is a whole bunch of new believers running around the village telling everyone they got saved. I think these first couple months were going to see some growth in the adult church as well.
Now if we could ask that you would keep these kids in prayer that God protects them, gives them strength and helps them to grow.
