| Dear Friends and Supporters: The following newsletter is the latest update from Pastor Nandu and the Grace Children Home Orphanage. Some of you may be aware that Pastor Nandu is having to move the GCH orphanage children out of their current building by the end of May. You will notice Pastor Nandu eludes to that in some of his updates. Please pray for Pastor Nandu and his family and the children of the GCH orphanage. The good news is that the children are being taken care of in Pastor Nandu’s home as they search for a long term solution, but as you can imagine it is somewhat crowded to say the least. The children continue to be healthy, spiritually and physically, and are continuing to grow and learn through Pastor Nandu and his wife Anu’s caring and guidance.
In Christ,

| I talked with the landlord and they have given us some time for shifting the children, until we finish our beds made in our down floor’s rooms for the children. We have planned to make double deck beds where the children can sleep on the top and also in the below to adjust all the children.The approximate cost of the beds for all the children to shift down floor in our house estimated by a carpenter $1155. This includes all the materials & carpentry costs. We also have to make an additional toilet for the children in the ground floor (this has to be estimated separately), because we have 2 toilets in the ground floor which is not sufficient for all the children and staffs. 1, toilet is being used by the staffs, and only 1 toilet for 28 children and which is quite an important need to consider immediately.It might be little confusing from the last budgeting for the beds, is because the beds were designed differently (that was individual beds) in the previous children’s rooms, but the ground floor of our house we have arranged differently, to adjust all the children to sleep together on the top and on the bottom |
| The new extension room is very helpful for the children and it is of very good usage at this point for the children most every time. They have been using for morning and evening Bible classes, worship and prayers. They learn music (guitars, triple-set, key-board etc.) playing and learning songs. They use the room as common room for all the children to play and sit any time. The room is also used for studying, doing home-works after school and playing and learning all the time. (This is the only common place to play and enjoy for the children). |  |

There are few things we can add on it to complete the room
1. Room-Painting is incomplete. 2. Window’s iron grill for the safety of the children. 3. Curtains in the windows. 4. Floor mats/carpets and 5. Wash basin and water connection in the corner. 6. Some musical instruments for the children to learn. |
