This request is urgent – as in, FAME needs to send $30,000 before the end of March. On your behalf, we just wired the first portion to your FAME mission partner and they will start construction in 2 days! Here’s the story.
You may remember that in late 2019, FAME partners like you paid for an ambulance (pictured) for the work started by the
xxxxxxxxx family (unlisted for their safety). That ambulance staffed by medical professionals now travels to 35 villages where they’ve started churches. Many thousands of aged, widows, orphans, and families receive their primary medical care – in the name of Jesus – from that ambulance.
The xxxxxxxxx family works mostly with the fishing families of their region – and they’re acutely aware that a lack of healthcare is devastating to entire families when a fisherman is unable to work. Here’s just one example:
Dhatri was severely injured in a fishing boat and net accident and was unable to work for 6 months because of a fracture that was not set since there was no healthcare available.
There should be no reason for such a crisis!
The xxxxxxxxx’s also know that many more people can be reached through medical outreach and they’ve begun work on a 16,000 square foot clinic. It will provide primary health care, and a direct opportunity to connect this fishing community with the Great Physician!
To me, this opportunity seems a bit like the story in Mark 1 – “the whole town gathered at the door and Jesus healed everyone with various diseases.”
Here is how our mission partner sees the opportunity:
Children, mostly under age 5, will get regular immunizations and be treated for scabies and other skin diseases. Mothers will receive prenatal care and the maternal and infant mortality rates will drop. Fathers will receive medical care that will allow them to better work at their demanding fishing tasks. Then there is the care for the elderly and widows…
Named after FAME’s first Executive Director, the Reeves Project Fund is for exactly this type of opportunity. But the fund doesn’t have a bottomless amount of money, so I’m asking if you will make an immediate gift to help with this clinic for India.
The reason we need to send the money ASAP has to do with the coming changes of law in India. The ministry is required to close their existing bank account and open one with the government bank. Suffice it to say, getting the funds there by March 31 will save costs and simplify the process greatly. Can you help today? Thank you!
You can respond with a check – or, if possible, give online at www.fameworld.org/give to get your gift to FAME in the quickest way possible.
Either way, your gift will make a difference and will serve people working hard to survive and hungry to know the truth of the Gospel
