Trips with a Mission

Trips with a Mission "Reflecting on the work accomplished by Trips with a Mission since I first began this journey with God, I think again about the mystery of God's plans.

I never set out to help forgotten children. That was one of the unexpected bends in the road of my life which came as a surprise. I believe that if we walk by faith and not my sight that God has many surprises for us. This ministry, rescuing children from the depths of despair, has brought me tremendous joy. It is a marvel to witness the change that occurs in these indigent children when they beco

me part of an earthly family and a member of God's family. This is no less a miracle than the parting of the Red Sea! God has put a bend in the road of every child in our Children's Homes. The bend has taken these homeless children in an entirely different direction than anyone dared dream of! God has a plan for the 'The Least of These', the many children in our care. These children were imprisoned in poverty, fear and ignorance. Now they are free of hunger; they are being educated; they are safe. Most of all, they are being filled with God's love! I can take no credit for the work that has been done. All I did was step out in faith but God is the one who has performed the miracles! God sent me selfless, devoted people to administrate each home, people willing to dedicate their lives to destitute children. God is the one who has touched the hearts of people to sponsor children and donate funds. I am simply a tool in the hand of God." Suzy Sims, Director

June 5 was Environment Day in Relli, India. The LOT School participated in many ways. The students marched in the parade carrying signboards with environmental messages and they planted trees. All the LOT teachers made short speeches on global warming, deforestation, the harmful affects of chemical agriculture and pollution caused by factories. The day was fun and educational for all in the community!!

Aakriti graduated from Columbia College on May 18 with a Master's in Business Administration! We are so very proud of her. Aakriti has had many life changes in the past few years. First she got married, then moved to a new country (USA); she had a baby girl and even so, she somehow managed to earn a Master's degree!! An amazing accomplishment!!

Aakriti graduated from St. Devi's Academy as a day student. Her family lives near the campus. After finishing college she worked as a teacher at SDA prior to her marriage. Praveen, her husband, also graduated from Devi's as a hostel student. He went on to earn a bachelor's degree and master's as well. We wish Aakriti and her little family all the best!!!

This morning food was delivered to St. Devi's Academy. Food prices have escalated tremendously which has put a strain on the budget. Because propane is so expensive, the resident cook has been using a wood fire for the past several years, to cook meals. Even so, wood is rather costly as well. If anyone is interested in helping defray mounting food expense, please donate from our website: tripwithamission.org. Thank you so much!!

Recently we received a postcard from some of the girls who live at St Devi's Academy. This was a first for us. We do not know who took the initiative to send a thank you message to the TWAM office but we were impressed. First, the girls must have felt gratitude, then a post card was purchased. Next the card was passed around for signatures, our office address had to be located and then off to the post office to buy a stamp. We happen to know the post office is not near the school. Girls, we thank you and appreciate the effort it took to send us a card!!! Being appreciated is always nice!!

When our students make cards and write letters to their sponsors, they take the task seriously. They each draw beautiful pictures and sometimes write little jingles. It's amazing how creative they are! Even our oldest boys get in there to thank the person who has helped them. Thank you sponsors! We love you!!

At the TWAM facilities we have two types of students - day students, those who live outside the compound and pay tuition, and hostel students. The hostel students are sponsored children who live at the facility while attending school. They are our pride and joy! The picture below shows most of our beautiful girls (hostel) who are graduating from St. Devi's Academy. We will miss them!!

It is exam time at St. Devi's Academy. The scores on the exams play an important role in the future of each student in Nepal, determining which college they can attend. It's 'crunch time' and the studying and stress is intense. Good luck!!!
