GOALS:
The home is a place for healing: broken hearts, broken lives, loneliness, anger, fear, tears, apathy, malnutrition and
sickness. A shelter where the pain of hunger is alleviated.


Meeting the needs of the children in the Home is a heavy load and expensive, but as more of God's people get
involved the task becomes light and easy.

"The King said when I was hungry you gave me something to eat, when I was thirsty you gave me something to drink,
when I was stranger you welcomed me, and when I was sick you took care of me and when I was in jail you visited me.
The King will answer whenever you did it for any of my people, no matter how unimportant they seemed, you did it for
me, " (Matthew 25: 35, 36, 40 NIV).

"When you give feast invite the poor, the crippled, the lame and the blind; they cannot pay you back, but God will bless
you and reward you" (Lk. 14: 13- 14 NIV).

"Jesus said... I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly" (John 10: 10b KJV).
