At the orphanage, there is a brand new baby house that takes in babies,  even babies with Aids.
Every Tuesday night is the street outreach where a team goes on the streets and hands out bread during the services. The services are for street kids and also for the prostitutes at the brothel. Ortencia, the girl on the lower left wearing an orange t-shirt, came from there and could use continual prayer to not return to that lifestyle. The bandaide on the upper right side of her forhead covered a deep cut that was inflicted upon her when a boy hit her with a bottle while she was living on the streets. Please keep her in your prayers.
Every Friday is a dump outreach. Many kids have been rescued and taken to the orphanage from the dump and the streets. The little boy on the far right, Meekish, now lives at the orphanage and is doing good.
