					<description><![CDATA[India (MNN) -- A Bible ministry begins preparations for winter in India]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>
India (MNN) &#8212; <a href="../../groups/BPM">Bible Pathway Ministries&#39;</a>  Al Joslyn says<br />
they&#39;re partnering with an orphanage in North India with just under a thousand children. Many of them were rescued<br />
off the streets with nothing but the clothes on their backs. That means they&#39;re unprepared for what&#39;s<br />
coming in less than 100 days&#8230;a season change.
</p>
<p>
From October to March, it&#39;s winter in this region. The northern plains of India often see very<br />
cold temperatures. In fact, temperature in the Thar Desert can reach the freezing<br />
point. &nbsp;
</p>
<p>
Nighttime temperatures this winter plummeted to close to<br />
freezing, making life a misery for tens of thousands of people who live on the<br />
streets with few ways of keeping warm.
</p>
<p>
Joslyn urges people to imagine a child without warm<br />
blankets or clothing trying to survive on their own in that climate, wearing a<br />
single thin layer. &quot;We&#39;ve received<br />
word in the last week or two that the children there need warm winter<br />
apparel. Specifically, (they need)<br />
blankets, hats and gloves and thermal underwear&#8211;things that we take for<br />
granted here.&quot;
</p>
<p>
Joslyn says they&#39;re raising funds to provide winter clothing for the kids. Bible Pathway is not looking for<br />
the goods themselves, because shipping them is too expensive. Rather, the ministry wants to raise at least $50,000 USD for<br />
the project so they can purchase the goods in country.
</p>
<p>
It&#39;s an investment in future outreach because these orphans<br />
also get a good education. &quot;They<br />
read the Bible through each year and use the Bible Pathway notes as their<br />
helps. They are given quite a good education. As they grow<br />
up, they go out and start churches and orphanages, and they do a tremendous work<br />
for Jesus Christ.&quot; <a href="http://www.biblepathway.org/English/ContactUs.html">Click here if you can help.</a></p>
