"I could not even dream to have a peaceful education like this that you have provided for me. I was praying hard to see to it that I could go to school. God is not blind. May God bless you." These words are from a thank you letter that Juventine, a student at Beacon of Hope College, wrote recently showing her appreciation for the sponsorship Pilgrim has extended to her. Many students at Pilgrim's high school are totally sponsored, and these youth receive free education, room, board, medical care, spiritual care, and in many cases, counseling treatment for trauma sustained during civil conflict.
Here are more excerpts from the letter packet. Be blessed as you read these notes!
"The main reason I am writing this letter is that I thank you for what you have done to my life in this place. The organisation Pilgrim is very important in my life because now I am sponsored form this school and now I am enjoying a good standard of living. They are treating me without me paying any amount of shillings. I would like to conclude by saying may God bless you Pilgrim in all hands because you are taking care of my life from this school." — Misaki
"I really longed for this year, but at last, God answered my prayer and you accepted me as an orphan. Thank you for helping the orphans, poor, and street children." — Tino
" I am very happy and may God bless you. I hope I am going to do well at school becaues even there the teachers are good and we are eating food that makes me feel that I am not an orphan." — Francis
"I am very happy for what you have done to me and I know now that I will achieve my future. For God says "I have picked you from Egypt and now go and save me." That is why I thank Pilgrim for picking me form where I was." Spiritual services and better standards of education I have achieved are the reasons why I appreciate Pilgrim since I had a negative attitude toward life because of meaningless background." — Daniel
"I am so delighted with the sponsorship you offered for me. When I was at home I had no hope of education because my parents were poor and could even take me to school all of my relatives were proposing me to get married and by that time I lost confidence of education but now through the sponsorship you truly gave to me has made me to see my vision of a future. I pray you have made our family to be grateful and successful. Above all may God the Creator of all the universe bless you abundantly and may his grace continue to be revealed to you." — Moses
"I really appreciate you for the hands of support you stretched out to me. I am happy and joyous that I am at school because you gave me sponsoring. May the Almighty God bless you and add you more energy." — Nancy
