Children throughout the world have been abandoned, orphaned, or have run away from abusive situations. Without anyone to care for them, they live on the streets, vulnerable to predators and traffickers. Or, they live in squalor with parents who are unable to provide for their most basic needs. Malnutrition, disease, illiteracy, child labor schemes, prostitution, and crime steal their futures.

But God is using indigenous ministries assisted by Christian Aid Mission to protect and nurture needy children. Many of these indigenous ministries have opened orphanages, schools, and daycare centers; and they are committed to raising children in the knowledge and admonition of the Lord. Beyond food, clothing, shelter, and education, these children are lovingly discipled in God’s Word, and many of them grow up to serve Him in full-time ministry.
