What Happens If You Are Homeless And It’s Your Birthday?

Paul, at Operation Joy Never Forgets A Birthday!

Paul was very keen to see B this week as it was her birthday. She was not in her usual place when Paul arrived in Manchester. Later he returned and found her, but she was asleep so Paul left the birthday card by her side. After a coffee break Paul went back and saw that B had opened the card and was more or less awake, but not in a fit enough state to ring her mum and dad as planned. Even so, the card will mean a lot to B, and as she has been reminded before, God cares and does not forget us. (Isaiah 49 v 15)

Please pray with us for all those who are homeless on their birthday.
