Enrollment

Here is an email I received from J's mom:

Magandang Gabi! Good Evening :o

Hope your doin fine, also your family & friends. Just want to update you about [J] enrollment. We enrolled her last week at [TCS]. We choose their installment plan, they made us pay the miscellaneous and then divide the remaining amount to be paid on succeeding months. The books, uniform(exclusive at school), Physical Education uniform, they've asked us to pay in cash. Next week we will buy [J] basic stuff in school like bag's (she needs a bigger bag, preferred by teacher is a troley because she will be having 8 subjects in a day and it is required to bring all the books everyday including the notebooks), shoes (she's growing very fast-her old shoes doesn't fit her anymore), notebooks, pencil, crayons and a lot more.

The money that you've send help us, because honestly with our budget we can't bring her in a private school. God really has His ways of blessing us...[J] most especially, by simply making ourdreams/prayer come through, by using people like you too. thank you.

Crisis is all over the world... here in thePhilippines, the food and most basic needs,transportation cost rise but the salary of the people remains the same. It's hard. But we believe that by God's grace we would be able to survive.

I have sent about half of what is needed for J's tuition. We still need around $300. Her parents told me they plan to make the trip out to enroll her and get everything situated with her needs (uniform and supplies).
I recieved an email today inculding a couple of her drawings. She is such a little artist! One of them is a thank you card.

This one says, "Thank you for helping me. For your prayers. For sharing your life to me... We have nothing in return but my God shall supply all your needs. Philippians 4:19."




This is about family and says, "The family that prays together stays together."
