Pray for the vulnerable and disabled as they seek better ways to support themselves. Widows of deceased soldiers are learning vocational skills through a local ministry’s new program that teaches, for example, sewing, hand weaving, literacy, cooking, and embroidery. Because of this training, the 65 participants—including 15 women with disabilities and their daughters—will now have the skills necessary to earn an income without having to resort to begging on the streets. “The local authorities have expressed their gratitude for this effort,” the ministry leader said. Your donations support ministry work such as this.

“He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap.” (Psalm 113:7)
