We will be opening the third year of Dorcas House in just about a month. We are beginning to hear about some of the new girls that will be coming. One of them comes from a village where the Christians have been severely persecuted. When one of her friends came to Dorcas House last year, everyone was excited for her. When she went home after her first year there and shared all that she had learned, the believers wanted to send another girl for this year. Can you imagine what some relief from persecution might be like?
Another girl, Mayi, was the first Christian in her village. She was only a 12 year old at the time. What courage. Her family has not persecuted her, but now that she is getting older, they would like to see her married off to a non-believer. She will be coming for a year of training, especially to learn about God's Word.
What other "treasures" of God's family will be coming? In another month we'll know and it will be exiting to see how He works in the lives of these young ladies, transforming them into women of excellence.
