The people of north India have many physical and economic needs. As is unfortunately the case, children often suffer under these conditions. NMM with many children’s homes in north India is reaching the children with the life and promises of God.

Most children in our Homes are orphans or come from families where their parents could no longer care for them. Children’s homes provide for all of their physical needs such as food, shelter and education. Above all we want to demonstrate to them and teach them the love of Jesus and the plans He has for their lives.

Lata is 14 and studies in standard 8. Her father died due to excessive alcohol intake when she was 5. Her mother is severely crippled. She wants Lata to work in her farm instead of going to school. But Lata wants to pursue her studies and become a village nurse. Lata’s uncle brought her to our children’s Home so that she could get some basic education and have a secure future. She suffers from severe respiratory illness for which she is receiving medical treatment. She is also partially crippled but is the most happy and responsible child in the Home.

We brought Viram to our school at the age of 6. His parents did not want him to study because by doing so they would lose a helper in their farm. Viram studied in our school right from nursery up to class ten. When he graduated from high school he could have chosen any career. Instead, he chose to get trained in our Bible College. He is now teaching at our school and is in charge of our Children’s Home where he himself grew up.
