Bridge of Hope Trusted to Help Those in Need
GFA Bridge of Hope staff in Maharashtra had been praying and seeking the Lord for ways to bless their community. The coronavirus lockdown particularly affected the poor; they and their children struggled to get even one proper meal a day.
Then the GFA Bridge of Hope staff received a call from a local woman saying she had purchased 225 packets of food and wished for the staff to distribute it, knowing the Bridge of Hope center could be trusted to serve the underprivileged in the community. Taking the supplies, Bridge of Hope staff bagged and handed out food packets to the needy families.
Most of the recipients are migrant laborers who have been out of work since the lockdown.
“Thank you for your help,” they said. “Your God is a good God. We know that you are Christians, and that is why you are doing this kind of good work for us.”
