To provide a safe and life-changing atmosphere for children and give them the opportunity to become productive citizens in their respective countries.

We are committed to building a brighter future for children who are in borderline situations all over the world. So many of these children are without the pleasures of the western world. These children are the victims of social and financial instability. Some have lost their parents and have no one to fend for them. Some have just fallen through the cracks of this imperfect world and suffer as a result.

A Future Filled with Hope
Scripture reminds us that God has a unique and beautiful plan for each of us, filling us with hope. This truth is especially powerful as we see the incredible potential in the children we serve. Every child deserves to know they are loved, and we are honored to help guide them toward a brighter future. 🌟

Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’

He is risen indeed!

The Resurrection
Now after the Sabbath, toward the dawn of the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb. And behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow. And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men. But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I have told you.” So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”
Matthew 28:1-10

🌟 Final Day of Our 40 Days of Prayer for Sponsors🌟
🙏 Thank You for 29 New Sponsorships! 🙏

On this Holy Saturday, we are deeply grateful for all of your prayers and support. When we began Lent, we set a lofty goal of 40 new sponsorships in 40 days. We are thankful that God provided 29 new sponsorships and many people who shared our mission with loved ones. Some of our new sponsors fully sponsored children, which is truly amazing.

As we’ve shared before, it takes $60 per month to house, clothe, feed, and provide a Catholic education for each child. This is made possible through three sponsors per child in the lower school at $20 per month, or two sponsors per girl in the Junior College at $30 per month.
As we look forward to the Resurrection, we place our trust in Our Lord that He will continue to provide for the little ones in our orphanages and schools in India.

Thank you to everyone who sponsors our children and to those who have recently joined us in this mission. 🌺
