We are grateful to God for the opportunity to hold this month’s Allies Mentoring Program (AMP) in two places: Sunday school and in the village. The theme was “healthy food,” and it quickly became clear that many of the children did not like vegetables at all. But after listening to the volunteers’ teaching and practicing how to prepare their own meals, everything began to change.

In Tanzania, a volunteer named Irine is quietly changing lives. Month after month, she shows up early to prepare, greets each child with a smile, and makes sure no one feels left out. Whether she’s arranging seats, passing out snacks, guiding a discussion, or simply listening to a child who needs comfort, Irine serves with joy and humility. She doesn’t do it for recognition. She does it because she cares.

At just 10 years old, Nastia has faced more hardship than many experience in a lifetime. She and her mother fled their home in Donetsk, Ukraine, to escape the war. Her father was killed in the conflict, and her mother is now battling cancer, enduring chemotherapy treatments that often leave her weak. On top of that, Nastia has her own health challenges, living with only one functioning kidney.

In the coastal city of Vũng Tàu, Vietnam, a simple day at camp became a life-changing moment for many children, and it was made possible by your generosity.

The day in Ukraine took an unexpected turn. It started out very hot, but soon dark clouds gathered and a storm moved in. Everyone grew anxious when we heard that, not far from us, the wind had torn the roofs off several homes in a nearby village. The children were especially frightened as the wind picked up around us.

In the peaceful countryside of Maitum, Sarangani, a young man named Michael is taking brave steps toward a better future. At just 19 years old, Michael, a proud member of the T'boli indigenous tribe, made the difficult decision to leave his hometown and move to Iloilo to continue his education. It’s not an easy path, but it’s one he’s committed to—and your support is helping him along the way.
