Nineteen Years Ago 

A volunteer delivered a check from In His Name Ministries made payable to ONG to a widow's home.   She had been without service since Spring.  Unknown to us, her adult daughter who was living with her noticed and later told her mother, "Now I see what you mean about God."  Her mom had been speaking of the amazing love of God.

A short time later she went to church with her mother and confessed her faith in Christ. 

Now many years later, we still see the younger woman who is a store clerk.  Occasionally she says," I guess you all know that In His Name Ministries is responsible for my coming to the Lord."  She says she will always be grateful to the ministry.

She operates a neighborhood ministry in her home for latchkey children.

CASE #5067bil

70 Years Old, ill, and stressed caring for rebellious grand-children

 

B. W. wears a pacemaker and has advancing symptoms of Parkinson disease.  For a man who has been physically active, a successful business man, church member and community leader, this is a hard pill to swallow.  

A compounding problem is that they have custody of two grand children.

Their retirement income was adequate, but costs of rearing two teenagers has ravaged their budget

The 17 year old and his 15 year old children are acting out their rebellion. Their mother of the children is not able to give her parents any money to relieve the financial burden of caring for her two children.  The children’s father resides in another state.  He has virtually abandoned them.  He sends nothing to help either.

B.W. has started proceedings to get child support for the children.

Until they begin receiving aid, they are $500.00 per month short of what it takes to maintain their fixed household bills.

They are looking into a reverse mortgage on their home.

These care givers are good people having been responsible citizens all of their lives; now during their senior years and in failing health, the emotional and financial pressure is really having a catastrophic effect.

A Sunday school class is buying food for them each week.

In His Name Ministries wants to help them pay bills.

Current needs are $1,058  Any amount you choose to give will definitely help and it will show them that God loves them.

If you will assist, refer to Case 5067bil. Please send us an email so we can post the pledge in the left column.  This allows other viewers to know what is still needed.
