Children Home Building Expanded

Posted by admin on July 5, 2010  |   No Comments »

A dying mother handed over her son and said to us “Please take care of my son”. ACCEPT initially began as an organization to take care of the HIV/AIDS patients. We could not reject her pleading cry because no one wanted this small boy, who was also HIV positive. This occurrence was what started the ACCEPT Children Home even though we lost the first child last year.
The earnest cry of the mother resulted in a home for more children. Beginning with one child, we now have 22 children ranging from one year to 17 years of age with 16 boys and six girls. Many came here and some were brought here by others.
We thank God for each child, they truly are the joy of ACCEPT. The children now regularly attend school. One of the young girls finished her 10th class and completed a computer training course. She is now undergoing nursing training at our centre.
As the earlier facility was not sufficient for the children, we started  the rebuilding of the home which was completed and opened on May 15th, in the presence of believers from different assemblies in Bangalore.
Now the building can accommodate 30 children with a spacious hall for recreation, separate dormitories for boys and girls and a children’s dining room. Even though we have been given many blessings with the new  Children Home, we could still benefit from your help.
