I would like to take a moment to highlight another part of the world with a high percentage of orphans and those in need. Bethesda is an outreach for orphans in South Africa who's mission is to encourage and assist the local church in meeting the needs of orphan children that may become disciples of Christ. That mission is accomplished through Bethesda's Children's Village, Orphan Care Resource Centre and Hands of Mercy Ministry.
Jr and Kristi Burke members here at Grace Point have fallen in love with the children, the families and the people of South Africa, in particular those at the Bethesda Outreach . Their love for and desire to see these children grow in the name of Christ goes without saying.
A trip led by the Burke's will happen this November, please consider being a part of nurturing others in Christ. If you would like to join in for this opportunity please let Jr. Burke, Kristi Burke or Matt Davies (mdavies@grace-point.com) know.
"Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world."
James 1:27
