Child praying

Prayer and Praise – May 2017

Please pray for us because when you pray, God hears more than what you say, answers more than we ask and gives more than we imagine in His own time and in His own way.

Praise God for …

  1. A very successful Launch Day at ‘JFL 2 Disability Centre’ on April 6th 2017.
  2. Continued progress at Tileagd with construction of the new Adult Assisted Living Facility.
    Another Container arriving in Cihei on May 9th. Thankful for so many wonderful supplies donated towards the work of Smiles.
  3. A very successful first quarter of Sales for Sminro Enterprise Initiative and for the opportunity to develop further the business for long term Support and Sustainability of Smiles Mission Work.
  4. Plans to start the 12th house in Rapa for the final family that need housing.
  5. The Thankful Hearts within Smiles who appreciate the love and support shown to them in Christ.
  6. Volunteers who give so generously of their time and resources, Fund-raising all the time.
  7. The entire Smiles Staff, now 105 Romanian Nationals including the Enterprise Initiative (Sminro) who all serve faithfully month by month to help share the Love of God and enable the poor and disadvantaged to have a better life.
  8. We are thankful for the work being directed by the Romanian Management Team, Maria, Georgi and Adi who serve daily with Kevin.
  9. The wonderful work of all our Volunteers, Ambassadors and Key People sharing the opportunities and needs for people to get involved with Smiles.

Please pray for …

  1. Continued success in sharing the Good News of the Gospel through our Projects and for more people to make confessions of faith.
  2. The Building Work at Tileagd Assisted Living Facility. A huge job to achieve completion so as to open as planned in July 2017. Costs to March 2017 were £19,480/$25,324 – please support with a special gift towards this work.
  3. Luke Wathen in his full-time role for Smiles as a Development Ambassador.
  4. The ongoing discipleship and support work in RAPA after the infrastructure development of Hygiene Unit, Houses and Church are now complete. Next step is to employ a Community Worker who can start to Teach the Literacy classes.
  5. JFL Disability Centre needs operating costs to be covered through donations, fund-raising and sponsorship. Pray this support will continue as we started to operate from April 2017.
  6. All the plans being made and discussed for 2017. That more people will take the step of faith to ‘GO’ and then plan to ‘COME’ for a Hands On Mission Experience!
  7. The Capital Funds needed to meet JFL Salonta debt – the final construction costs of the Disability Centre along with loans for the JFL Project over the past 5 years need to be repaid. Today’s total need is £42,645 ($63,967). A wonderful response in March with giving in excess of £4,000/$6,000
  8. The continuing response and follow up to Sponsorship, Fund-raising and Development. For Barbara and Luke’s work with volunteers and supporters and the follow up of all those interested to know more and be more involved.
  9. The UK Head Office – for all the work Dawn undertakes through-out the year.
  10. That God will reveal Himself to the 1,500 + people we serve in His Name every day in Romania – that through the projects you support, people may come to know the One, True, Living God.

Thank you for your prayerful support.
