Dear Church Family,

Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I’m writing to invite you to partner with us in a special offering for Caruniyam Children’s Home in Bangalore, India. Caruniyam is led by Pastor Paul, a faithful ministry partner who has walked with me for many years. Together, we’ve witnessed God’s care for the 40 girls who call Caruniyam home—many of whom are orphaned and have no families to return to.

This October, we are raising funds to meet their most urgent needs:

• Daily essentials such as food, toiletries, and clothing
• School fees, uniforms, and learning supplies for the coming term
  
  

Your generosity will make a tangible, immediate difference—keeping these girls safe, nourished, and in school. Scripture reminds us that “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress…” (James 1:27). As we respond, we become the hands and feet of Jesus to children He treasures.

Here are a few ways you can help:

• Pray for Pastor Paul, the staff, and every girl at Caruniyam
• Give a one-time gift toward basic needs and school fees
• Consider a recurring monthly gift to provide steady support
  
  

If the Lord is leading you to give, please use the giving option designated “Caruniyam Children’s Home,” or note “Caruniyam” on your gift. If you have questions or need assistance, email me and I’ll be glad to help.

Thank you for standing with us. Your compassion is a lifeline for these girls and a testimony of Christ’s love.

With gratitude in Christ,
Joel Sikha

P.S. No gift is too small. Together, we can fully fund the coming term’s school fees and essentials for all 40 girls.
