The Children

 

Some of the children shown on this site are without a sponsor, although all forty-eight currently live in Sanctuary Home. Previously, they lived on the streets. Those classified as orphans have no parents to care for them. Those classified as semi-orphans were also in a merciless situation: they have one living parent who has remarried, and according to their culture, they are not welcome in the new household. Some have a parent who can't care for them, and some have been abandoned. All of these children need to have their physical needs met, as well as their emotional needs and an education. If you would like to sponsor a child, please email us to find out which children need sponsors at this time. Update: All forty-eight children are sponsored. Once we complete the new SH building, we will need sponsors for an additional twenty children.

 

Naga Babu already has a sponsor.

Child profile by P.Isaac, Tenali, India

Here is a boy by name Nagababu who’s story sounds unkind he lost his father because of Janduice (disease).  His mother committed suicide as a appendicities struggled her. she could not find relief which made her to die.  This boy was left as an orphan.  He was living as a bonded labour in one house.  On hard struggle used to go the school.  But slowly he was unsuccessful in his venture.  One fine day he ran away from the house.  One of our friends found him in the railway station while collecting the garbage.  He informed about the condition of the boy. I personally went and spoke to him he was so happy if he is provided a means for his life.  In this regard prayerfully I urge your good sleves to see that his life is blessed with prosperous future through your generous sponsorship. 

That was before...this is after...

Greetings! I wanted to tell you about our interview with Nagababu. First of all, we spent the week observing him play and interact with the other children, and he is a happy boy and we didn't perceive any problems. During the interview, he was serious and nervous to be put on the spot, but Ray broke the ice by tossing him in the air! (He tossed the other boys, too.) He is in 7th class, and he likes math and social studies. His favorite games are cricket and khokho. He usually has a serious expression on his face, but we did observe him playing and having fun with the others. 7th class is very important (along with 5th and 10th) in the Indian school system, and we found out that Isaac has been spending his own money to send those classes to private schools for the year. Nagababu is very busy with school this year and it's important that he get good marks. We asked him about himself, and he commented on Sanctuary Home: "daily having good food" and "good study hours." He has asked for prayers for his good studies and good health.

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.  James 1:27
