The leaders of the four organisations which make up the Advent Christian Conference of Myanmar care for a total of 271 orphans or underprivileged children – they live in the leaders’ homes or the homes of other members of their organisations in other parts of the city and country. David’s organisation cares for 96, Joseph’s cares for 79, Timothy’s cares for 56 and Kenneth’s cares for 40.
Following the recent receipt of some funds to assist with the back-to school costs for the children, Pastor Joseph sent the following information which represents the reasons why all four of the ACCM leaders see this particular part of their ministry as extremely important.

Please pray for them.
