Grand Opening of the Tin Tin House in the Philippines!

tingministries
Rejoice with us as we announce the Tin Tin House is complete and was dedicated to our Lord Jesus and service for His Kingdom on Sunday August 1, 2021
We praise the Lord for His faithfulness! There is not a breath I take or a day that passes that my heart does not ache for the day I will once again be in the presence of my beautiful precious daughter – to hold her hand and gaze on her dark eyes and beautiful curls…to listen to her laugh and smell her sweet aroma. Oh how grateful I am for the saving knowledge and hope I have in and because of Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 1:5.
All because of one beautiful little princess named Avigayil Christina “TIN TIN” , our very special family in her birthplace and their diligent work and the kind gifts of many donors- this home has been completed. The building began with a dream, a few dollars and faith in the Lord.
The day I traveled to Avi’s birthplace to complete her adoption was a glorious day. The first moment I saw her was one of the best.moments of my life. Avi, Sasha and I flew out of her city and onto Manila in March of 2011. Flying over her city to leave I had a vision to build a home for children in her city. This is the fulfillment of that dream and vision.
Already in the Philippines there is another home nearly complete called the MeiMei House. There is also another home in Pakistan named the Tin Tin House. May our Lord continue providing for orphaned, trafficked, child soldiers, street children, poverty stricken and brick kiln children by growing this Tin Tin Ministry for children not just in the Philippines but around the world.
Thank you to each one who given and who has prayed. I have attached some photos of the Tin Tin House. The 2 boys on the photo/ sign with our Avi are rescued boys who became sons of our Pastor. They also have already gone home with the Lord and their stories are deeply entwined in the story of Avi and the building of the home and the growing ministry in the Southern Philippines.
There is a photo attached of the first drawing of what the house would look like and then photos of some of the progress in the past 2 and 3/4 years. Through these past months the building of the home would continue as we would have money to buy materials. Most of the work has been completed by the boys our Pastor has rescued and taken in over the years. Our Pastor and his wife have “adopted” them as their children and taught them in the ways of the Lord. We dearly love our Filipino family.
To God be the glory
1 Peter 1:13″….Put all your hope in the gracious salvation that will come to you when Jesus Christ is revealed to the world.”

Completed Projects, Russia, Sasha's Story

FULLY FUNDED: RUSSIA! $1,600 NEEDED THIS WEEK!

tingministries
UPDATE on Russia Medical Need: May 28, 2021 FULLY FUNDED!
We would like to send a big thank you (спасибо огромное!) to everyone who gave towards the cost of my dad’s medical needs! Thanks to some generous supporters, this week we were able to send my family the funds needed for the wound vacuum and related materials! My dad will be able to receive his device soon!
Please keep my family in your prayers – for healing, wisdom and comfort! We were so blessed to meet this need through Ting Ministries and both my families were so thankful!

Dear friends, this is Sasha coming to you with an urgent plea for fundraising! My step-dad in Russia has been suffering with severe leg pain, several (unsuccessful) surgeries and is now in need of a wound-vacuum and bandage sets, costing a total of $1,600! Much like our ministry partners in the Philippines experienced, doctors will not offer the necessary treatment until it is paid for. My family is afraid that without the wound vac, my dad will pass away! To many families in Russia, such a sum of money would be an unthinkable cost – but we at Ting Ministries know that nothing is impossible with God! Losing my dad would be devastating to me and my family, along with their farm and livelihood. My birth family has carried out ministry in Russia, serving special-needs children, animal rescue and family’s in-need since we found one another. How incredibly special it would be for the Ting Ministries family of supporters to support my family in their time of need, both for them, myself and my adoptive family.
So, if you can give even $5 – I humbly urge you to SHARE this post! You will be an answer to prayer and living example of Jesus Christ. To Give:
1. Donate Online (FASTEST!): www.paypal.me/Tingministries
2. Send a Check: Ting Ministries, 29 East Poplar Street, Lebanon, PA 17042
Thank you all very much! Please pray for my dad’s health, for the doctor’s wisdom and for comfort during this very difficult time. May God bless you!

Surprise Children in South Asia with a Badminton Set! GOAL REACHED!

tingministries
4th Update: May 18, 2021 – GOAL REACHED!
YOU are an answer to these children’s prayers! Thank you to those who have given – we are so pleased to announce we have REACHED our funding goal to purchase a SURPRISE badminton set! Children at the home in South Asia will LOVE their new gift! Here they are pictured praying together for Ting Ministries. Every little bit makes a difference in the end and we are so thankful for each person who has made this goal reality! May the Lord bless you and keep you! With all our love and gratitude, Ting Ministries – USA and South Asia
Update 3: Just $145 to go until we reach our goal and can purchase a badminton set for the children at the Ting Ministries’ home in South Asia! We are so close friends! Thank you to those who have given. Can you help us reach our goal by the end of the week?! We at Ting Ministries are so excited!

Update 2:

Just $245 more needed! Surprise children in South Asia (location undisclosed for protection) with a badminton set! Thank you to the first donor for this special surprise! Pictured below are children in South Asia who were excited to receive soap this past Christmas. How much more thrilled would they be to receive such an exciting gift? Dear friends, how much do we long to give good gifts to our children? These children have very few people who care for them. In letters, children will call their sponsor families “mom” and “dad.” Can you give 5 dollars to bless a child in poverty with a gift?
Our ministry partners have written to us, explaining how they would like to bless the children with a badminton set. Not only will this gift be a special surprise – but it will promote group learning, teamwork and exercise as well as fun!
Dear friends – these are the children at our ministry’s children’s home in South Asia* (country undisclosed for protection of ministry partners.) In the picture below, they are eating lunch together! We would like to surprise the children with a badminton set!
Sponsors often ask us “Can I send my sponsor child a gift?” While mailing things overseas presents many difficulties and we do not want to single children out or provoke jealousy or sadness among children who have sponsors and those currently waiting for sponsors, this is a perfect opportunity to show these precious children you are thinking of them! Our ministry partners have told us how much the children play outside and would love to play badminton – so, please consider helping us purchase a badminton set for them to play together!
These children have little to call their own, even sleeping on dirt floors with blankets provided by Ting Ministries and thankful for soap at Christmastime. They will be so thankful for this gift! To them, a badminton set is an amazing gift!
Please donate through:

Thank you so much! Even if you are unable to give, please SHARE! How excited the children will be with their surprise!

UPDATE: FUNDED! Medical Care for Filipino Newborn with Clubbed Feet!

tingministries
Very Important UPDATE: Tonight 2/8/2021
The $2,000 needed for surgery has been raised and the stories behind many that gave are breathtakingly beautiful. God knows each one who gave and why and we pray God answers each prayer and need of each family/person who blessed Baby Boy and his family.
Thank you!
Ting Ministries needs your help.
A newborn baby in the Philippines needs medical care and surgery. We are raising $2,000 to help this precious baby boy receive the care he needs immediately. Our pastor is working directly with the baby and his family.
Baby boy in the Philippines with clubbed feet
This is near and dear to my heart. Our Avigayil (Tin Tin) had club feet when we adopted her from the Philippines.
Our Avigayil “Tin Tin” in the Philippines before she was adopted and her clubbed feet corrected.
She needed extensive procedures/surgery to correct her feet.
Avigayil with me
Avi and her beautiful curls!
This baby’s family has chosen to keep him and not place him in an orphanage. Many families have no means to have necessary medical care for their children and therefore many end up being placed in orphanages. Many of these parents do not want to give up their children but see no other solution.
Baby boy’s family has chosen to reach out to our pastor for help. We are committed to helping them. Can you help us? Every life is precious.
If you would like to help Baby Boy, you may send financial gifts:
