The Voice of the Poor
Hello Friends,
Welcome to my cottage! This is a place where I want to meet with those remnants the Lord intends to use to change the future; a place where I can share my heart with likeminded people and relate God’s extra-ordinary stories in my ordinary life. The journey is going to be awesome!
Dear Friends,
Did you know we just had an orphanage inaugurated in Jaigaon at Indian-Bhutan border?
PLEASE SEE SOME PICTURES BELOW.
We at AIM ASIA had been praying for an opportunity to serve the children in this area for the several years. I believe it is the Lord’s time now.
God has provided a good house for the purpose. It is a rented facility and is good enough to accommodate all the children and the home parents. It also has a big open place to hold meetings and training programs.
A simple inaugural service was held in the orphanage premises on July 12, 2010. Over three hundred local people gathered to witness 50 destitute children received in. These children come from destitute, displaced families that work at tea gardens picking leaves 8 hours a day for a dollar and a half. They do not have a home to live in or a regular job to sufficiently fend for their needs. Sending their children to a school system is like a dream.
Many of you have expressed your desire to visit this area. I want to encourage you to do so because you will not be passing through the city as a mere tourist but there is a place now where you can play and enjoy with the little children, teach them, feed them and help them grow.
The landlord of the orphanage building is a Christian and wants to sell the property at a very low price of $30,000 though it is worth much more by the virtue of sharing international borders with Bhutan.
If any of you would like to make a contribution toward this project, you may donate on line from our web site: www.aimasia.net
We appreciate your partnership and value your support.
Joab Lohara.

Atish’s mother died when he was just 3 months old. He would have died or grown up to be a street child if AIM ASIA did not take him in. He is 7 years old now and is in school. Adopt a child like Atish and change his future!
