"It was such a help, because right now our situation is very difficult because of my husband's sickness. We were pastoring in Masbate, but our missionaries brought us to the Door of Hope to take care of us until my husband recovers. Would you please pray for my husband, Pastor Tom? He has not been able to walk for 9 months. I am hoping, along with my 5 children, that you will help us pray for his healing. May the Lord reward you for your kindness. Thank you very much and God bless you!"

"Hello sister Esther, Good day to you. I don't know how to thank you for your gift to Emmanuel. This was such a big help for my child, because right now I don't have enough to buy anything for my children, so thank you very much. God used you to meet our need. I was not expecting your gift to us."

"Dahil sa ngayon, medyo mahirap po ang aming kalagayan dahil sa sakit ni Pastor. Tom. Pastor kami sa Masbate, pero kinuha kami ng aming mahal na misyonaryo.Kaya dito kami sa Door of Hope. Prayer request ko rin, na ipagpray myo po sya 9 months na po na di sya nakakalakad. Umaasa kami kasama ko ang lima kong anak, na ipanalangin mo si Pastor Tom. Salamat pong muli. Ang Dios nalang po ang gumanti sa inyo. Thank you very much and God Bless you!
Ang nagpapasalamat- Emmanuel's Mother - Grace Ramirez"

"Hello Sister Esther,
Magandang araw po sa inyo. Di ko po alam kung paano kayo pasalamatan sa mga regalo nyo kay Emanuel. Malaking tulong po ito para sa aking anak, dahil sa ngayon, wala talaga akong sapat ng mabilhan ang mga anak ko, kaya salamat talaga. Ginamit kayo ng Dios para sa pangangailangan namin. Di ko talaga inaasahan na may regalo kayo sa aming. Malaking tulong po ito."
