Halfway around the globe a dream is coming true. Gary Crowe has had a
desire for 20 years to somehow, someway make the life of little children
in India better and easier. Since his first trip to Vijayawada and Mumbai,
India in 1988 and over 39 trips after that, the desire to help children has
only intensified.
It is in the heart of God to raise orphans and destitute children and we
believe that preparing each child academically as well as spiritually will
enable these orphaned and vulnerable children to become strong leaders
who will help turn their country around. We know that it is a task we could
never accomplish without the helping hand of friends like you. We indeed
pray that you will be encouraged to partner with us to give these children
the future they deserve.
A great man once said, "We're better together." So it is with Hope In The Night.
When I was a little boy, I loved to watch a TV show called The Lone Ranger.
Every Saturday morning I would look forward to watching this show. Every
week the Lone Ranger would ride a big white horse all over the county and
help people who needed help and often times he would save their life. I so
wanted to be the Lone Ranger when I grew up.
If you watched the program, you realized he really was not alone. He had an
Indian friend named Tonto. In fact, you soon learned that if it wasn't for Tonto,
the Lone Ranger would not have accomplished anything. Tonto was the real
person that made it happen.
I have always known that Hope In The Night could not accomplish anything
without you (Tonto). I hope that it's okay to call you Tonto. I often get people
who pat me on the back and say, "Good job, Gary. Keep it up."
If they only knew how little Gary does and how much God does and how much
you do. Gary would receive less pats. It's God and you that need to be
thanked. Yes, Hope In The Night needs you. Hope In The Night needs your
continued prayers and financial support, and we thank you for all you do!
In closing, I have to say that the past 18 years have been a journey I never
dreamed I would be on. I am glad and honored that I am not alone. I thank
God for you "Tontos" who have been on this journey with me. We truly are
better together.
In coming months I will be leaving for India again. I need your prayers for
wisdom on a few projects we are considering"
* Updating computer equipment
* Taking on a second ward at the TB hospital.
**This would be for girls 12-20 years of age.
* Continued financial support for the Children's Home
* Safety and health for all the children
* Continued good favor with the TB hospital and staff
* Wisdom
"Hi-yo Silver! Away!"

† Only One God †
From my first trip to India 23 years ago, to my 50th trip a couple of
weeks ago, India still amazes me. There are over 100,000 gods that are
worshiped, but yet only One God gives peace, healing and eternal life.
I have seen gods that are 1 inch high to over 20 feet high. Some gods have
10 arms, some have an elephant nose, some look like snakes, and some are
half human and half animal. But only One God sent his son to earth
because of His love for us. This Son was crucified, buried, and rose again
because of His love for us! And now, we have the opportunity to share His
love or should I say obligation, to share this God with 1.2 billion people in
India and the rest of the world.
