We know education of the mind is a key component to long-term change. Therefore, our programs teach literacy, emotional well-being and physical wellness. Upon sponsorship, we assess the child’s reading and writing abilities and offer tutoring to bring each child up to their age-appropriate literacy level. We also meet weekly with each child in a group setting to teach socioemotional and physical wellness.
The most critical area of growth, we focus a great deal on teaching the children about Jesus and the Gospel—that they are loved by God and special. The children meet in weekly discipleship groups with a leader from our local partner church in the village. Their leader teaches them spiritual foundations from the Bible and visits them at their home weekly/monthly to spend time with them and their family. This is where we believe God will transform hearts and minds.
