The community health staff of Bangalore Hospital, India, has a rehabilitation program for alcoholism in villages. During the past two years, more than 250 people have attended 12-day sessions, followed by weekly support meetings. They have a 38 percent long-term success rate.  Children’s nutrition is always a problem in the slums. A nutrition program has been started with about 50 children in a slum of Kolkata, India. National and international workers are carrying out this program in hopes of improved health for the children as well as opportunities to demonstrate the love of Jesus,  Mustafa*, a close friend of a believer in Northern Africa, had grown tired and weary from the holy month of fasting. His days were filled with activities, and his nights were filled with eating and visiting family. The last night of Ramadan, he, his wife, his mother, his brother, and his 2-year-old daughter decided to visit a family member in a neighboring town. In the early hours of the morning, they set out on the dark road. As they drove, the others in the car fell fast asleep, and then Mustafa fell asleep. The car ran off the road and flipped multiple times. Mustafa suffered a head injury, but his wounds were not critical. His daughter and brother were fine, but his mother and wife were severely injured. Mustafa’s mother has come out of her coma, but now faces a long road of recovery. His wife is sadly still in a coma. * Please pray for physical healing for Mustafa’s wife, a healing that would come in such a way that there is no doubt that it is the work of the Great Physician and lead to spiritual healing for the entire family. * Intercede for the children’s nutrition program in Kolkata. * Pray for the transition in leadership as a new director/CEO assumes responsibility for Bangalore Hospital. *names changed
