Asia's Hope - BB1


November 2019 update:


Thank you so much for your support of and prayers for our BB1 home, staff and kids!  We wanted to share some exciting news we received from Asia’s Hope about BB1.

They just received an official notice that Social Affairs has placed two new girls in the Battambang 1 home.  What a blessing to know that two more kids have been placed in a loving family, where they will know they are seen and loved by the Lord 

and their local family! 

Ravy is 16 years old and in grade 9, and Devit is 14 and in grade 7.  Their stories echo many of the children at BB1 - family and personal suffering, parental death or abandonment.   Both girls are now in school through Asia’s Hope, are cared for, with hopes of a future career: Ravy hopes to be a flight attendant, and Devit would like to be a teacher.

Here are details on upcoming ways we’ll be connecting with BB1.

Photo of sponsors - on Sunday December 8 at 12:15 pm in the Lounge we would like to take a group picture of all sponsors to send as a Christmas card to BB1.  We hope you can be there.

Breakfast gathering and Skype call - we want to have another time of group video chat with our BB1 family on January 19th at 8:00 am.  Please mark your calendars.

Letter writing - Also in January, we will be giving the church an opportunity to write letters to the BB1 kids, that Isabelle Carrière will bring over to Battambang on her upcoming visit.  More details will be forthcoming.

Prayer Cards - In late February, we will be having another exchange of BB1 kids prayer cards; where you will now have the opportunity to pray for another one of our children for the following 6 months. 

Thank you again for your prayers, your financial support of BB1.  Because of you, a home full of children, including two new girls, have hope for each day and hope for a future filled with possibility, through the power and work of the Lord.

Asia’s Hope is an organization we partner with in Battambang, Cambodia.  
Asia’s Hope offers comprehensive, long-term care for orphaned children who cannot be reunited with their extended families or communities of origin.  Through them Westview sponsors an orphan home (BB1) in Battambang District, where we support 24 children and three staff members.  The children are well fed, clothed, educated and seen to regularly by dentists and doctors.  On top of all this, the staff run Bible studies and daily prayer times, and most of our children have accepted the Lord as their Saviour, and have been baptized.  

Asia's Hope are raising these children to be functional, independent adults ready to support themselves in their home countries. Most will get jobs, marry and have children. Several already have hopes of working for Asia’s Hope or in other ministries in the future to provide for other children in need in their local communities.

Asia's Hope is raising the next generation of leaders in Cambodia;  children who will not only reach their own personal potential, but will work to rebuild and reform their home countries from the inside out.

Asia’s Hope also runs a Christian School and have built a large worship hall in Battambang where all the Asia’s Hope Battambang orphan homes meet weekly for church.  

Westview operates our support for the orphan home through a sponsorship program.
