"There must be a God."
First, we had the final business presentations. From there, the top four presentations went on to the business presentation competition. Our finalists had put together business plans for holistic funeral services, gourmet tea/snacks, education consulting, and an online counseling platform. The winner of the competition receives a no-interest loan for starting his/her business.
We had our best competition so far. During the competition, an entrepreneur who was a non-believer spontaneously praised the business center saying, "There are almost no resources for those suffering mentally in South Asia. I've had a burning desire for helping those with mental problems. At just the right time, I found the business center. It's the only thing that has helped me make this desire into a business for others. I'm not a Christian, but there must be a God."
What exciting opportunities to introduce others to this wonderful God as well as start businesses that can transform this city. Please pray for this entrepreneur. Consider donating toward the competition winning loan. Even better, come over and help our entrepreneurs start and grow successful businesses.
Consider donating toward the competition winning loan (and future work of the business center).
