Philippines: life in all its fullness for children at the edges

24 July 2025

Please pray for Kate and Tim Lee, currently in Manila to help set up a new kindergarten project to provide quality early childhood education in some of the poorest communities in the city. Kate and Tim founded Jigsaw Kids Ministries in 2004, and Tim now supports the Filipino team from Cumbria. The Jigsaw team runs eight family centres in the Metro Manila region, sharing God’s love in practical and strategic ways with children and families living in extreme hardship and poverty. Kate, an early years education specialist, will be training Jigsaw staff over the next couple of weeks. Pray for her to inspire Jigsaw staff about the importance of early years education and equip them to make a difference to the children they will be teaching. Pray for Tim as he leads the new Jigsaw children’s building project.
