Three New Children


                                         Emmanuel           Edmon            Monica
There is a long and painful story behind each child's face. As you read through them 
remember to keep children in your prayers.  There is much healing that needs to take place.

Monica spent three years on the streets when she lost both parents to AIDS. 
She had to walk 42 miles from her village to Lira town for safety. But after arriving to Lira town things became worst for her.  While on the streets Monica was continually abused sexually, and suffered emotional trauma.   She was eventually picked up and placed in a home as a slave. Monica was made to do all the house work including looking after a child. Street girls are often picked up and placed in homes to become a domestic worker. The treatment they suffer in these homes are not far from what they were dealing with on the streets.

Edmon lost both of his parents to AIDS and spent four years on the streets. Like Monica, Edmon was also abused on the streets and was used as cheap labor for business men in town. Edmon is 13 years old.

Emmanuel parents died of AIDS and spent two years on the streets. He was abused and bitten on many occasions by police patrol and night guards. Emmanuel is 12 years old.

So Much Going On!

The children's village is a busy places these days. 

 The second school building is nearing it's last phases and the construction crew just broke ground for the soccer field.  Before long we will be able to hold some exciting games with other nearby schools.

Fred and the staff have been spending the last few days meeting with a group of street kids. Today they received  new shorts and shirts as an early celebration for their Independence day.
