The team have now been working very closely with a few kids in the Drop-In Centre for two months when the official program started. Over that time the kids have become a lot more open and trusting. Several have expressed a desire to leave the streets recently. Please pray for us as we start the process with these kids. If you've been reading the blog for a while you will know that it will be a long process with ups and downs along the way. We want to keep learning to give them the best start and support we can but there is no underestimating the prayer and God's intervention that is needed.
One of the girls (we'll call her Viki) recently announced that she is pregnant (to her half-brother!). She is 17 years old and has always seemed to be outspoken and quite cheeky. It seems though that the pregnancy has brought with it a sense of responsibility and she has started to soften and ask a lot of questions. There is a possibility that I might meet up with Viki. Pray that that would work out if it is in God's will and pray for Viki, her health as well as the baby's, and that she will find the answers she is looking for. Pray most importantly that she will find Christ. Viki doesn't live on the streets but she hangs about with the guys who have left fairly recently and rent near Alex and Paty's house. She has had some exposure to the Word of God through Proyecto MEFI.
