Akuti - A real Gypsy Princess, and her people need you!
PLEASE TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO READ THIS.
I am an Irish artist and missionary working with extreme poor in Africa and India. In this one camp 52 children suffer from Intestinal worm infection, and the death rate is very high. This is due to lack of clean water.
The is Akuti, an Indian gypsy girl aged 11 years. Her name means ‘Princess’ and she really is a Gypsy princess. But she, like almost all of her people, the Nara_Kar-Avars (gypsy children), are treated with contempt and rejection, and denied even the basics of life. To be born a Gypsy under Hindu religion is to be born into the lowest of the lowest casts.
Known as Outcasts and treated as Untouchables, Akuti and many millions like her face a life with little hope.
She has never gone to school, as her parents barely earn enough to feed her, and cannot afford the £70-$130 per year they need for school fees, uniform and text books.
My passion and mission in life is not just to pray and preach to these precious people, but to provide clothing, and the cost of school fees, medical care, and provide tools to help them earn or make a living.
The Philadelphia Mission is a small underfunded, yet effective British charity doing just that in India and Africa. We need you, my friend, to help us do much more. Become part of this mission today! Sow a seed into the life of Akuti and other children in real and terrible need.
All PROCEEDS from the SALE of my ART, or DONATIONS made VIA our CHARITY WEBSITE GO to HELP EXTREME POOR and SICK in ISOLATED and RURAL VILLAGES in AFRICA and INDIA.
We TAKE NOTHING out of what YOU GIVE to the Philiadelphia Mission Charity for our Overhead or Support at all. We are NOT SALARIED and we each COVER our OWN expenses, so ALL that YOU GIVE GOES to these CHILDREN
To make a donation, or find out more, Please visit our Charity Mission website*

Patricia :-)
TREVOR IRWIN replied
Patricia, Thank you so much for your comments. I value then very much. the Lord has granted me his heart, to feel and experience hos love for these precious children. I Love them so much. I feel more than just compassion, I feel gods Emotions as I see their hearts reach out to him in desperation. They suffer so much, and I pray God will Bless me with the money needed to Build a school, Drill a Deep Bore well and cloth them. There are many times I have almost crippled under then shear burden of not being able to raise enough money to do more. But its at these times God reminds me that he has called me, chosen me to serve him in this ministry towards the extreme poor and outcast in remote and rural villages. He also reminds me in Philippians 2:13 It is God who produces in you the desires and actions that please him.
thank you again for your love, Prayers and encouragement.

She really is precious.
MicheleSS
she is so precious and beautiful…
TREVOR IRWIN replied
Thank you so much Michele for your wonderful comments. I see from your profile that Hebrews 13:5 is your favourite scripture. It is also one of my favourite Scriptures.
Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
I love Joshua 1:5 There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
The Good News bible interoperates it as follows. Joshua 1:5 No one will be able to defeat you as long as you live. I will be with you as I was with Moses. I will always be with you; I will never abandon you.
You are blessed and very Precious to God. http://www.philadelphia33.org/

Trenchtownrock
A star in the making.
TREVOR IRWIN replied
Thank you trenchtownrock. She really can be a superstar or anything she wants. But it will take our help and prayers. being born a Gypsy puts her in the lowest Caste system of the Hindu religion. She has alreadt bee beaten, stoned and chased from the markets and towns.
We are doing what we can with our little resources. her School fees, Uniform and text books are a big challenge. it costs £130-$200
per year. Your comments really do encourage me and the charity team. God Bless you. I invite all to Please drop in and visit my Charity website:
