3 KIDS LEFT!
Once there were 56 children in a very poor neighborhood of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia who were vulnerable, very poor, hungry, no money to attend school, yet they found a care point who would look after them and give then what they had. They started coming one by one until there were 56 in all! However, the food ran dry and the teachers weren't getting paid. There was no money left in the budget.
That was Nov. 2010. Today, 53 children are sponsored! Food is being served twice a day and the teachers are getting paid. Education is being offered to all 56 children as well as 72 others from the neighborhood! Children from the Kechene community in Addis Ababa are hearing the Gospel every day and learning about their God given talents and the plan God has for their lives.
All 53 children KNOW they are sponsored. They have been receiving letters, pictures, and hope from families here in the U.S. who contacted me because it broke their hearts and they wanted to DO SOMETHING! Well, they did! 53 children have hope and a future. They are able to eat every day, live in a community where they are loved and taken care of, and know God!
However, there are also 3 children that KNOW they are NOT sponsored. They are waiting for that connection to a family. They are waiting for that hope in having someone who will DO SOMETHING for them.
