As of late we had the honor of devoting the new Hope Center


As of late we had the honor of devoting the new Hope Center in Madagascar. In the capital city of Antananarivo there are a large number of road kids who are in urgent need of security, nourishment and adoration. The Hope Center will have the capacity to give that to some of them. 

The Hope Center devotion was essentially stunning and loaded with satisfaction. Dave and Joyce were invited by several kids thundering boisterous with fervor. 

Halfway found in maybe the poorest range of Antananarivo, Madagascar, the new focus will give hot dinners, access to gives and assurance from the individuals who would need to damage them. A number of the kids we met will have the capacity to rest with a pad and cover for the first run through. 

Huge numbers of the youngsters, who are existing in the city through no shortcoming of their own, have confronted sexual misuse and the steady fear of human trafficking. A lot of people are actually battling malady and ailing health because of an absence of fundamental life necessities. 

Presently, many kids will have the capacity to discover comfort from the dangers of the boulevards, and the consideration they urgently require. We know we can't help each and every kid, except we are respected to have the capacity to help the same number of as we potentially can. 

Much thanks to you for collaborating with us to change these youngsters' prospects… one safe night on end. 

Hand of Hope is the missions arm of Joyce Meyer Ministries. Our objective is basically to help the same number of harming individuals as we perhaps can, to reduce human enduring and to help Christians develop in their confidence.

Whether that result is a tooth extraction or solution or the sound of her kid's cheerful giggling as they blow bubbles and get sufficiently tickled while holding up in line, each one individual that passes through our center is touched and changed. Every one is reminded that they haven't been overlooked and that there is a God in Heaven who cherishes them, as well as who will put everything on the line to uncover Himself to them. 

Amid our five days of center in Mazan, we could treat 2,541 patients, remove 304 teeth, administer 8,651 remedies and lead 593 individuals to the Lord. The way that God has decided to band together with us, His kids, to satisfy His reasons in the Earth is a humbling acknowledgment. And after that to encounter that organization firsthand is completely a perfect benefit. 

With each medicinal effort we do, we have a special chance to meet individuals in their time of need. Furthermore through that need, we have a significantly more one of a kind chance to acquaint them with the God who sent us, give them His affection, and provide for them an expectation for the future that will keep going long after the pharmaceuticals are gone.

Dorothy



Dorothy is a female given name from Greek meaning "God's Gift", from, "gift" + "god". The earliest form of the word δρον is the Mycenaean Greek do-ra, meaning "gifts", written in Linear B syllabic script. Although much less common, there are also male equivalents in English such as "Dorie" from the Greek masculine Δωρόθεος Also, the given names Theodore and Theodora are derived from the same two Greek root words as Dorothy, albeit reversed in order.

Dorothy was a less common variant of Dorothea, until it became one of the most popular girl's names in the United States between 1904 and 1940. It was ranked among the top 10 most popular names given to American newborn girls. The name remained among the top 100 most popular names for American girls until 1961. It then declined in popularity and was last ranked among the top 1,000 most popular names for American newborn girls in 2006, when it was ranked in 986th position. There were 235 newborn American girls given the name in 2010. Just 20 American girls were given the variant name Dorothea in 2010.

Chronicle

Generally a chronicle (Latin: chronica, from Greek χρονικά, from χρόνος, chronos, "time") is a historical account of facts and events ranged in chronological order, as in a time line. Typically, equal weight is given for historically important events and local events, the purpose being the recording of events that occurred, seen from the perspective of the chronicler. This is in contrast to a narrative or history, which sets selected events in a meaningful interpretive context and excludes those the author does not see as important.

In modern times various contemporary newspapers or other periodicals have adopted "chronicle" as part of their name. Various fictional stories have also adopted "chronicle" as part of their title, to give an impression of epic proportion to their stories. A chronicle which traces world history is called a universal chronicle.
Scholars categorize the genre of chronicle into two subgroups: live chronicles, and dead chronicles. A dead chronicle is one where the author gathers his list of events up to the time of his writing, but does not record further events as they occur. A live chronicle is where one or more authors add to a chronicle in a regular fashion, recording contemporary events shortly after they occur. Because of the immediacy of the information, historians tend to value live chronicles, such as annals, over dead ones.

The term often refers to a book written by a chronicler in the Middle Ages describing historical events in a country, or the lives of a nobleman or a clergyman, although it is also applied to a record of public events.
Chronicles are the predecessors of modern "time lines" rather than analytical histories. They represent accounts, in prose or verse, of local or distant events over a considerable period of time, both the lifetime of the individual chronicler and often those of several subsequent continuators.

If the chronicles deal with events year by year, they are often called annals. Unlike the modern historian, most chroniclers tended to take their information as they found it, and made little attempt to separate fact from legend. The point-of-view of most chroniclers is highly localised, to the extent that many anonymous chroniclers can be sited in individual abbeys.
The most important English chronicles are the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, started under the patronage of King Alfred in the 9th century and continued until the 12th century, and the Chronicles of England, Scotland and Ireland (1577–87) by Raphael Holinshed and other writers; the latter documents were important sources of materials for Elizabethan drama.[1] Later 16th century Scottish chronicles, written after the Reformation, shape history according to Catholic or Protestant viewpoints.

It is impossible to say how many chronicles exist, as the many ambiguities in the definition of the genre make it impossible to draw clear distinctions of what should or should not be included. However, the Encyclopedia of the Medieval Chronicle lists some 2,500 items written between 300 and 1500 AD.

"The chronicle is one of the quintessentially Christian forms of historical writing," Michael Kulikowsky has remarked. "The ultimate goal of this exercise is usually to place the events of human history in the framework of Christian time, to record the annual stages by which human history marches towards the Second Coming" This approach makes the Christian chroniclers particularly awake to wars, plagues and disasters.
