Spotlight on Orphans 5-11-06, Bridge of Hope Center Orphanage

<body> <p align="center"><font size="5">Bridge of Hope Center Orphanage</font></p> <p>It is with great pleasure that I am finally able to officially introduce you to the Bridge of Hope Center, the newest<br> orphanage to be sponsored by Hearth to Hearth Ministries. Actually, we have been working with Pastor Mukhooli and<br> this Center for the past two years behind the scenes. The main reason why we did not give our official recognition to<br> this orphanage earlier is because of the lack of funds to nurture it.<br> When we began working with our Uganda projects at the beginning of 2005, it was with the understanding that we would send them whatever we could raise for their work, but that the needs of the two orphanages we were already working with in Kenya would come first. We realized that to make this orphanage official was to make a commitment we did not<br> feel prepared to make. Then, just about the time we planned to “take the plunge,” we acquired thirty-one extra children from the Kenyan government, plus many extras at Glory Children's Center, and you know the rest of that story!  Needless to say, the work in Uganda has been progressing under great difficulties.  Pastors Mukhooli and Musungu are to be commended for the efforts they have put forth under very difficult and trying circumstances.<br> The situation with finances has not changed very much in this ministry in the past few months. We still have very many unsponsored children to support, an arrearage in school fees for both Hope for Children Center and Glory Children Center, the need for two orphanages to be built, as well as numerous other needs, but it seemed unfair to ask Bridge of Hope Center to continue waiting while we forge ahead with the Good Samaritan Lwanda Children's Home—a truly much<br> newer project. Therefore, our Board has voted to take this overdue step solely by faith, with the understanding that we are<br> now in a position, largely through our website, to publicize the needs of all of our projects in a more satisfactory manner, and that God is in control. He has never failed!<br>  </p> <p>HIV/AIDS kills many in Africa and leaves many orphans.
