And yet, we hear frequently of how much our participants are grateful; they find many things to rejoice over. And we at Five Talents take immense joy in working to transform lives through supporting the vulnerable, restoring human dignity, and creating stronger communities. We have enjoyed the process of continual learning and advancing our efforts to create a better tomorrow for our brothers and sisters who are persevering through extreme poverty.

Paul, in his letter to the Philippians, urged them to value others above themselves and to consider the interests of others. This is what we are privileged to do each day in our work at Five Talents, and because we do, this is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
