ENJOY  YOUR  JOURNEY

Dear family and friends,


It’s been a very busy month but an excellent one. I enjoy everything I do in fsp so it makes work really fun and interesting. Every time I visit the families in fsp, it makes me feel closer to them and be a part of their conversations, laugh at their jokes, encourage them and listen to their stories. This is the best and my most favourite part of serving in fsp.


Few families I visited this month

 This month I attended a workshop which was for caregivers who are dealing with Adolescents who have undergone severe Trauma in their lives. I enjoyed learning new concepts and new ideas to deal with children. The workshop was very informative. We had lots of activities which made learning fun and spent time with people who have the same visions like me which made me more comfortable to be around them. This was a time where I was able to make new friends, get out of my comfort zone, participate in activities and more.

This month in fsp, we were able to plan a lot for this year and make a calendar. We were able to host a workshop on study and stress management for the kids who are writing their final exams. This was conducted to help them to cope with stress, to come up with strategies to study, and a time of fun to get their minds free from studying.



Workshop

While I was doing house visits for this month, I was touched by the words one of the mothers spoke to me. Usually I’m the one who encourages the mothers and kids but this time, this one particular family took time to encourage me. The mother looked into my eyes and said these exact words “there is no better work than the work you do” and that she was blessed to have me in her life and her kids’ lives.

This season, I learned that in everything I do, I had to give it my best and put a 100% of my effort and hard work, but most of all, to have fun and enjoy the journey that the Lord is taking me on.
Prayer Points

  •        Please pray that fsp will grow and we will be able to support many more children this year.
  •        Please pray that all the workshops and programmes that we planned for  this year will happen successfully.
  •        Please pray that I would be used as an instrument in the lives of the children and women I work with.
  •        Please pray for my future.
  •        Please pray for my MSW studies.
  •        Please pray that I will become bold and grow confident in myself.

Hello, my name is Santhiya, I am 24 years old .I just graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Management last month, I would like to share my testimony and the wonderful journey I have been having with Jesus. He has been a faithful friend and a dad and He still continues to be faithful to me.  I have had some rough times in life, got distracted and followed paths that I should not have, I let my weakness take control of me and went far away from Jesus, His word, His love and compassion.2010 March 16 th was the day I was fully set free from my sins, guilt, shame and many more bondage's, I thank God for that day I was able to walk in freedom and I could enjoy His presence more.  At the age of 20 I heard God talking to me and He clearly called me to do ministry. At that time I had no idea of how or which ministry to join in, I kept praying and looking for ministries. During my second year of degree I worked part time in FSP Family Support Program. Its a project th

The Journey of Empowerment    Dear Family and Friends I am enjoying my journey with FSP. There are things, which I learn every day. I had devoted myself to house visits this month. At present, we have 50 families with 131 children. These families are spread across four communities within Bangalore. It has been a wonderful journey this month personally visiting these families and getting to know a little more about them, spending time, loving them, listening to them and praying for them. Talking to the kids and encouraging them being an older sister to them. Sometimes they just need a person to listen and understand them. In the process of building lives, there is a tendency to be focused on results and outcomes that we may forget to focus on the person or the people group. Relationship building is a key component in the process of development of the fsp families, keeping this in mind there are some points that we keep in mind while we invest into these rela

             His Faithfulness Dear friends and Family, It’s been really amazing to see Gods hands on the Family Support Program. The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your  faithfulness . Small group Work at FSP has been hectic this past month,  a lot of administration work, house visiting’s, sponsor letters, and more. We were able to arrange a small group session for the older girls in our program. It was time of speaking truth about their identity and self-esteem. Their identity in Christ, and what he thinks about them and feels for them. We are planning to have this once every month. Small activities are planned to make it interesting and exciting. The girls had a very good time in the session. Activity Time for the small group sessions Background: Samyuktha and Nivetha are granddaughters of Sundari(grandmother) the girls lost their mother 9 years ago. She killed herself b
