Every Saturday, the sound reaches the road long before you see the children — three hundred voices singing at the top of their lungs. For many of these boys and girls, our Vacation Bible School and Sunday School is the brightest, safest, fullest part of their week.
A safe place to simply be a child
Most of the children come from homes pressed hard by poverty. Some spend their weekdays scavenging or minding younger siblings. On Saturday, they get to do the one thing every child should be free to do: play, sing, learn and be loved.
The morning is full of songs, Bible stories told in ways small children remember, games, and — crucially — a warm meal. For some, it is the most reliable meal of their week.
Planting seeds early
We believe the truths a child learns about being precious to God can carry them through a lifetime of hard places. Three hundred children now know the songs by heart, know the stories, and know that on Saturday there is a place where they belong.
