Dear Friend,

One day, Kaavya went to the doctor and received crushing news. . . . She had leprosy.

"It was the worst day and saddest day in my life," Kaavya shared. "What to do? I could not die."

Kaavya not only was cursed with leprosy, but also illiteracy. Her life's path of rejection and loneliness began to change when she received acceptance and love in the form of GFA-supported Sisters of Compassion.

"Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."
— Philippians 3:13-14 (ESV)

Gary and Meg from West Virginia had a unique take on Christmas this year. Meg said, "I was in a cell phone store recently and I noticed the average price of a cell phone is about $600. A few days later I got a catalog from Gospel for Asia that had a gift called the Barnyard Bundle for $678. It would provide essential farm animals (6 chickens, 2 goats, 2 pigs, 1 lamb & 1 cow) for several impoverished families in Asia . . ."
