A Report from the Field

    For the new year, Bob, Sally, and the staff here at RDM-Child’s Hope Inc. want to provide testimonies and praise reports from the field as well as more stories and profiles of orphans for our special reports. The ministry of RDM and Child’s Hope reaches far beyond just the scope of orphans and widows! We also have a radio ministry, support young students in Bible school, plant churches, support pastors, fund evangelism efforts, and of course support orphans and widows in their distress. We want to bring real-time stories and reports to our partners via the information we receive from our administrator in Burkina Faso, Constantin. He oversees our operations there and reports to us often by phone and email. He faithfully ministers to the pastors in the villages and in the city of Ouagadougou (the capital of Burkina Faso.) He has a passion for the orphans and through your efforts and his, we are now serving over 2000 orphans! Praise be to the Lord! 
     Bob especially wanted to share a report about Fati (pictured above) our minister to widows. She is truly fulfilling James 1:27,and has such a heart for widows. Fati is herself a widow to three children ages 12, 16, and 18. Her mission is to travel from village to village and help widows and orphans. She teaches them from the Scriptures about how God loves and values them (especially since their culture does not) along with health information and business skills. She is truly impacting those who are seen as outcasts in their society. Through your support, this hard-working lady has already traveled to four villages this year! Her pastor and church community value her and call her a “spirit-led” woman. Thanks to you, she can continue on in her work of ministering to the husbandless and fatherless in Burkina Faso, West Africa!
