100%
- Where do the kids come from?
Warm Blankets Orphan Care International rescues and cares for orphans in some of the most desperate places on earth. War, genocide, natural disasters, and disease claims millions of lives often leaving children behind with no one to care for them. We rescue children from refugee camps, garbage dumps, the streets, disaster areas, - and worse. We provide them with emergency care and stability while we try to reunite them with their families. When there is no family, we welcome them into a church orphan home where we provide permanent care in a family environment.
Our passion is to restore the childhoods of orphaned children, to raise them up to be disciples of Christ and leaders in their generation.
- Who cares for the kids?
The pastor of the church and his wife frequently live in the church orphan homes as home parents. We also welcome widows from the community to be caregivers in church orphan home families. We really cannot take credit for this idea. Throughout the Bible we see orphans and widows together and the church caring for them. It just makes sense. The orphans and widows need each other. They have experienced similar loss, grief, and needs. They help each other heal and recover.
