Since 2020, COVID-19 had been a major global health issue. It’s still a significant health issue in India, and with her 1.2 billion people, India is still fighting the virus. In 2021 over 5,000 people have died every day continually for several months now. Nonstop cremation has continued in all major cities. COVID-19 crippled the country in many ways, and the challenge remains the same to this day.
On top of that, “Oxygen” has been unavailable. Knowing the URGENT need for Oxygen, Rev. Dr. Gus Reyes, from Dallas, made a contribution of $630 to Aim Inc., via SGB Church, and the church matched the gift. Following that, Rev. Dr. Rob Nash, President of Aim Inc., sent a well-received appeal letter. As a result, several individuals and churches responded quickly. Aim Inc., Board of Directors took the challenge to help with Oxygen Cylinders to COVID-19 victims. We bought a half dozen Oxygen Cylinders and gave them to Covid victims. Several are recovering. One died before we reached out to him. There is still a great need for Oxygen, and if the Lord leads you to be part of Aim Inc., please check the website: aimministries.net
