Our prayer is to put Smiles on faces in
the Name of Christ.
To help people, especially children, to know
they are loved and not forgotten whatever their circumstances.
To share from the bounty God has blessed us with, with those in need
of basic shelter, food and love.
Thank you
for your prayerful support
