Orphanage Opens - A Vision Becomes Reality

The orphanage opened on 02/25/06. The building was filled with joyful laughs and hopeful smiles from children
who have been living in severe poverty and despair. Below are exciting pictures of the first day!

Six children are now living at the orphanage and more will be coming in the near future. In order to fill the orphanage with all 24 children, we are still in need of people who would like to sponsor a child for $30 per month. This will help to provide to give one special child a place to live at this beautiful home, a healthy balanced diet, good water, medical provision, education, clothes, toys and more. Each sponsor will receive pictures and information about their child and will have the opportunity to write letters, send gifts, and even come to visit! Those who cannot make a monthly commitment of $30 may sponsor the orphanage itself for any amount. This will allow us to purchase much-needed supplies, pay the staff workers, and pay the bills to keep the orphanage running. This is a wonderful way you can get personally involved in helping to change the lives of needy children. To sponsor a child or to give a gift to the orphanage please click here

"For I was an hungred,and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me" Matthew 25:35-40.
