HUMBLE PLEA FOR ASSISTANCE TO HUMANITY

Calvary greetings in the Name of the Most High God. On behalf of the inmates and staff of St Peter’s Orphanage London, we most humble and in the Name of God Almighty, appeal for your financial assistance towards the completion of our ultra modern health centre. This orphanage was established ten years ago with based on divine revelation to go into the world and be a fatherly and brotherly figure to orphans. On its inception, there were only eight inmates who were mostly abandoned on the streets.

After some years in fulfilment of this divine calling, we, through the assistance of some individuals, established a centre in Benin Republic, West Africa, were there has been very high record of abandoned children on the streets, even under bridges. This centre has recorded tremendeous success in actualizing this divine task. In the course of accomplishing this, there had been several stumbling blocks, some of which have been tackled through the assistance and support of public-spirited individuals who have been supporting this project. St Peter’s Orphanage is a totally non governmental and non profitable establishment. As a result of this, we have never depended on the government for support or sponsorship. But on individuals who have the milk of human kindness flowing in their veins.

However, one of the major problems we have been encoutering is that of medication for the inmates. We have lost some of the inmates as a result of lack of adequate medical facilities and medications. This we have been working relentlessly to tackle by embarking on the building of an ultra modern medical centre in our Benin Republic centre.

So far, the project has gone over 50 percent and has engulped over US$200, 000.00 (Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars). We still require a total of 70, 000.00 ( Seventy Thousand United States Dollars) to complete this project. We have estimated its complation and official commissioning before the end of August 2008. We are believing God that this date will be realistic.

We therefore, most humble and in the Name of God Almighty appeal for your humble assistance by donating to assist accomplish this humanitarian project. We remember the word of our lord that it is more blessed to give than to receive (Acts 20:35).The word of God says that a gift is like a precious stone to him that hath it. Whithsoerever it turneth, it prospereth. Please, we are not placing a mandate on you, but requesting for any amount the Lord puts in your heart to assist bring this dream to reality. No amount is too small, as every cent would mean so much and be appreciated from the depth of our hearts.God loves a cheerful giver (11 corinthians 9:7) We remember how God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son to the world and for our salvation (John 3:16). We are doing our best to ensure this is successfully completed in due time, but we sincerely require your assistance, 1 Corinthians 3:6).

We pray God’s favour upon you as we anticipate a favourable consideration and response from you. God bless you as you give to this humanitarian project. Your name will be written boldly on the palms of God Almighty. Please contact us through the above email for further enquiries on how to send your donation.

Remain blessed.

Yours in the service to mankind,
Bishop Anthony Hall
