‍Philippines
At Tiwala Kids & Communities over the past two months, God has enabled them to hold their first-ever camp for scholars this year. Around 35 young people from Legazpi City, Manito Albay, and Vinzons Camarines Norte (another province) came together, and God did some amazing work in their hearts. They also reached out to many children throughout the summer through Vacation Bible School. Praise God for three new outreach communities that have opened up for them this year!

> Please pray for God to nurture the seeds planted in the hearts of these young people, so that they may grow, bear fruit, and lead to real transformation in their lives.
> Pray for the scholars to remain committed and consistent in growing and thriving in their personal walk with the Lord.
> Pray for wisdom, guidance, and empowerment for our team and our volunteer workers as we continue to minister to the kids, families, and communities.

‍India

> Facilitated 3 months of meals and educational programs at the nearest slum for 104 children.
> Provided seeds and financial support for flood victim farmers to restart their crops after the floods.
> Helped provide for the daily needs of those who are elderly and those with leprosy.
> Gave books, school uniforms, and other school stationery to orphan children.

Prayers for India:
Persecution to Christians is increasing daily, and some of the country's leaders are now cruelly demolishing church buildings with bulldozers and forcing Christians back into Hinduism. Pray for our partners who are under this persecution, for protection over their places of worship, and that their faith would remain strong during these trials. Also, please continue to pray for the flood victims, the team at FIAM, and those they serve every day.
