"Half of the children in our school cannot afford to buy lunch even though we subsidize the cost." The school principal was speaking to us with tears in his eyes, as he described the suffering of the children – many of them Ethiopians. We walked into a classroom of beautiful first-grade children, realizing at least half of them didn’t have enough to eat. Their bright eyes were so full of promise; I knew we had to do something to help.
Unfortunately, this school is not out of the ordinary. There are children in every community who do not have enough food to eat, or who are not eating a balanced diet because starchy foods are the only affordable option.
By the grace of God, we are now serving 100 of the neediest children in Beit Shemesh, Israel. It is our heart’s desire to expand to other communities as funds allow.
With the help of ChildCry we are able to provide 100 sponsored children with a hot lunch at school each day, building relationships between Christians and Jews worldwide through practical deeds expressing God’s love and mercy. |
