Our Work With Girls At Risk
“It’s just horrifying, it brings tears to my eyes to hear some of the pain that girls 12, 13, 14 have gone through (...) And as I look across the country I see so many children, and as I love my children the gospel demands that I love these children and provide for them. God willing, we will continue to care and continue to provide for these children, so that they can have a better future and we can have a better church in the future.”
Ten to twelve thousand children from rural areas are trafficked and prostituted to pedophiles each year, in a continuous cycle of abuse. Sri Lanka is one of the favored destinations of pedophile sex tourists from Europe and the United States.
Too often girls are “rescued” and put into public institutions where they are once again victimized. In Pastor Adrian’s home for girls at risk, the girls receive an education and are trained in a vocation such as food preparation and sewing. They remain under protection until married.
Girls At Risk Home Expansion
Your generous gifts helped complete the expansion of the home for girls at risk. The home supports up to 50 girls and provides counseling, community, safety, love and protection.
