Purim and Passover
What an honor to serve Jewish people during the PURIM and PASSOVER seasons! Lyosha, 10 years old Jewish boy with his Mom, Nina received a couple of visits from us during this time. He has the challenge of cerebral palsy but Lyosha smiles despite his condition. Abandoned by his father, Lyosha is cared for by his mom and two grandparents. Messiah’s Compassion is so glad to help them with food packages, visits, encouragement and prayer. They express their gratitude that they have not been forgotten. The LORD loves these Jewish families and wants us to reach them with the good news of the Messiah, offering them everlasting hope in whatever the circumstance. Thank you for making it possible!
