Here we are at the end of April 2023. A lot has been happening over the past few months.

The Peniel Children’s Home Building Project in Myanmar is now at final completion. On behalf of Faith Love Hope Foundation I would like to thank the generous grants given to this Project by Christian Enterprises, and to the generosity of others so that these children could have a new home. No more leaky roof in the wet season, no more rotten floorboards, no more poor sanitation and improper kitchen facilities.

We give thanks to God for His enabling of this Project in the midst of a military coup, covid pandemic, banking issues and rising costs of supplies.

This is truly amazing! To God be the glory!

Thank you again to all who have been a part of this Project

God Bless,

Rhonda (President)

Update on the Children’s Home building project (Aug. 2022)

The building project is nearing completion and it wont be too long before the children get to move into their new home. No more leaky roof or holes in the floor. They will have proper kitchen and bathroom facilities.

All of us at Faith Love Hope Foundation are excited to see this project come to fruition

Here are the latest photos of the building progress: –

Here are a few photos of the current progress of the building project of the new Children’s Home for the children of the ‘Peniel’ community. A wonderful effort in the midst of an ongoing political and economic crisis.

If you would like to be a part of this project your financial assistance would be greatly appreciated.

We, at Faith Love Hope Foundation, are very excited to see this building take shape.

1st February – the ruling party, the National League for Democracy (NLD), was deposed and the military  junta took control of power under a military coup, declaring a year long state of  emergency.

Civilian protests ensued on a daily basis and many protestors were killed by the military. The economy and businesses were affected – hospitals, banking, stores, schools; and the cost of living dramatically increased.

Covid-19 ‘hit’ Myanmar hard – for most civilians covid testing was not available, and the vaccine was only accessible to the military. Hospitals were not able to cope with the number of sick people and oxygen tanks were expensive and in short supply. Many died by the hands of the military or from covid-19.

Many protestors fled from the cities and villages into the hills and border towns.

As 2021 came to an end the military regime in Myanmar were still in power, the democratically elected government officials were still in prison; the military continued to strike fear into the Myanmar people with reprisals on protestors, air strikes on towns, and restrictions on freedoms.

The people of Myanmar need our prayers for peace, stability and the basic human right to live in freedom and not under dictatorship. They also need encouragement and assistance from the global community to achieve this.

2021 – the year in review for Faith Love Hope Foundation

January 2021 – Faith Love Hope Foundation achieved Australian and Not for Profits Commission                                            (ACNC)  status.

April 2021 – money was sent to the Peniel community for roof repairs.

November 2021 – money was sent to the Peniel community for razor wire fencing due to several burglary incidents. And in late November a further lot of money was given for Christmas needs for Peniel and the wider community.

Faith Love Hope Foundation has had a vision to build a new Children’s Home  for the ‘Peniel’ children. The events of 2021 in Myanmar have put the commencement of the building on hold for the time being, but we continue to raise funds for this project. And Faith Love Hope Foundation is extremely grateful to the generous donations to the building project.

We continue to support the Peniel community and help with different needs as they arise eg. roof repairs, razor wire fencing and Christmas needs. The children are well, and receive the best of care even under difficult circumstances; they are being home schooled and are taught by Moses’ team – it is unsafe for the children to go to the state schools due to bombings in school yards and the covid pandemic.

We pray that 2022 will see circumstances change in Myanmar for the good. We lift up this nation before Almighty God and pray that He will establish justice and righteousness and peace for the people.

Blessings,

Rhonda    (President of  Faith Love Hope Foundation)
