those aforementioned students...

Most of you know that I am mentoring a group of students. They come to my city on the weekends, and they go out into villages on Saturdays to study the culture and look at the development of villages. They are hard workers, and come from all over the country. Some of them have not seen their families for years because they cannot afford to go home. In their spare time, they make food to sell to earn money. During summer vacation, they are committed to the work. After their fourth year, they must commit to a year of work before they graduate. They are a great group, and the Father has taught me a lot through them.

Unfortunately, they lack sustainable skills that they will need after they graduate, like sewing or hair-cutting--stuff like that. Please lift them up, that they would be able to learn skills so that they could earn an income while participating in the work to which they have been called.
