Hi everyone. Made it here to Calcutta last week and have been having an amazing time. We have worked with two similar ministries both dealing with Children, but very different groups of children. One ministry is called Kings Kids and works with inner city street kids while the other works with "ruffer" kids who are in the train station. Both ministries feed, bath, provide clothing, tell stories to, and do worship with these children. We have had the oppertunity to visit the places where these children live and it is heart breaking. The train station children have no parents to care for them. They make money by selling the plastic bottles they collect, but that money is spend on drugs, especially glue to sniff. Some of the kids even show up to the program high, but soon crash once the high wears off. These ministries are doing great things in the lives of these children who would otherwise be living with no purpose.
I am excited to leave for Delhi on Tuesday. Pray that all goes well as I am leaving by myself.
Curtis
