From Global Partners of the APA


Dear Family in Christ,

I am writing to thank you all for your continued support of all our foreign churches and for your ongoing efforts during the Lenten Appeal. Below are three "Thank You" emails from our overseas churches. I think you will agree that we are making an impact and every dollar that you give and every prayer that you offer is being effective in the building of His kingdom in these places. The local populations are getting to witness Christianity in action thanks to your generous giving.

Please continue to pray for all of our foreign churches and our global partners and please remember their ongoing needs in your monthly giving.

Remembering that in all things, He is able, I remain faithfully yours,

Fr. David Haines
(Vicar General for Global Partnerships, APA)

From Haiti

Dear Father,

In the name of St. Yves Anglican Church and the Jacques Theodore Holly Institute, I want to take my time to thank you for your efforts. Every 25th of each month I have to answer to my obligations: nine teacher's salaries. Thanks to our affiliated churches I can respond and meet those obligations. Thank you all for your efforts. I just received your email announcing the wire transfer to St - Yves account. I will write to all the churches that donated to thank them for this wonderful gesture that deeply touched our heart.

May God bless your activities!

Wishing you all a most holy season of LENT!

From India

Dear Father,

Greetings to you and your kind donors in the name of our LORD JESUS CHRIST.
Thank you for your kind help for our Kadapa Diocese and Prakasam Diocese. It is wonderful to receive our much needed support in the name of our GOD through people like you. Even though we don't know you and can't see you. I am very glad and pleased for your great help. My Priests and Bible women and church congregations are especially thankful for help. We always remember you daily in our prayers. Please even pray for us too. Thank you so much for your kind hearted gifts. Jesus Christ's blessings to you and all the donors.

Thanking you in Christ's Name,

Rt. Rev. Jaya Rao
(Diocese of Kadapa, Andhra Pradesh, Anglican Church of India)

From the Philippines

Dear Father,

Greetings from the Philippines.

Thank you so much again for your generous support to the work in the Philippines. Your continuous prayers for us are such an encouragement to keep doing the work of God in the Philippines. At the start of this year, our Dumaguete mission had been affected by the storm and earthquake but most especially with the recent demise of our worker, Ptr. Moralde. Despite all these happenings, which we consider as our trials, we thank God that you continually stand with us in prayers and through your support.

May we continue to request your prayers as we are also asking God for a worker to be permanently assigned in our Dumaguete mission.

Again thank you and God bless.

Bishop Frederick Luis M. Belmonte and Eros
Anglican Church in the Philippines (Traditional)
