Please Pray for Brij Mohan… 
He is the eldest Asha House boy. Having just graduated from high school and passing his exams with great scores (81%), he has gone down to the YWAM base in Bangalore for a DTS (more info on YWAM DTS if you are not familiar with the program). We are so very proud of Brij and every obstacle that he has overcome in his life already and how he loves and serves Jesus. Just a few days ago we got word from Bangalore that Brij is very sick. He has been struggling with a hereditary illness off and on for many years now. Victor Sir has gone down there to be with Brij and help him find treatment. If Brij gets treatment he should be able to stay through and finish the DTS. The treatment is going to cost some extra money so if you are interested in giving to Victor’s travel costs or Brij’s treatment you can donate here:  

More than money and treatment for Brij we need your prayers. Please be praying that Brij will be completely and miraculously healed. I know without a doubt that God has amazing beautiful powerful plans for Brij. Please stand up with us and claim this victory in Brij’s life. As the kids as Asha House like to sing:
“Our God is so big, so strong, so mighty, there is nothing our God cannot do!”

Supporters of #picturechange really rocked it w/ their camera donations for this upcoming trip to India. Our students, all girls who have been rescued out of brothels, will be able to see their lives in a completely different way through these. I’m packing them up now and my heart is overflowing. Thank you thank you thank you. We can’t do it without you. (Taken with instagram)
