^{PRAYING TO REACH THE POOR & STREET KIDS WITH THE LOVE OF CHRIST}

^{India is home to the world's largest population of street kids, estimated at 18 million. These dangerously exposed and often unprotected children are subject to malnutrition, disease, all kinds of abuse, sexual exploitation as well as criminal dangers of many kinds. While India's Government has taken many steps to protect these kids, the problems and the dangers continue to grow.} 

^{Those of these kids who do have parents still live in small unsanitary huts or tents with difficult conditions. They work many hours leaving their kids neglected usually unable to go to school as their income is not sufficient even for food and shelter. Unsupervised and uneducated many of these kids turn to crime for their own food and livelihood.} 

^{Our hearts break for this great social evil in our nation.  Yet our greatest concern is for the salvation of each of these kids. Therefore our primary concern is, to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and to teach God’s Word to every child and their families. Only God has the love and the power to seek and to save that which is lost and we believe God’s power in the Gospel alone can change lives, families and communities.}

^{These kids are found in Juvenile Homes (Children’s Prison) in India. Some Children are kept there on account of their crimes while many children are found orphaned on streets and kept there. Kids are found orphaned on the streets because of poverty and broken families. By reaching these poor and street  kids we can prevent them from going to Juvenile Homes.}

We have a great desire to REACH and TEACH these kids. "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." (Proverbs 22:6)

"He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD, and that which he hath given will he pay him again." (Proverbs 19:17)

May the Lord continue to bless us as we FIRST seek His Kingdom and Righteousness. (Matthew 6:33)
