Daily, Hands at Work volunteers travel to visit the most vulnerable in the communities that we serve. Often, the roads are unpredictable and, at times, dangerous. Thank God for the protection that He gives, and continue to ask Him to protect those who are travelling.
Today, on World Day against Child Labour, pray with us for each child who is a victim of child labour. Pray that they will experience God's comfort and protection. Pray for people who love God to speak up on their behalf and advocate for change. #DayAgainstChildLabour
Relationship Groups are safe places for our Care Workers, Primary Caregivers and children to share their challenges, hear from God's word and pray together. We pray that through these times, they experience the healing that can only come from Jesus!
Life Centres are not only places for our children but they also provide spaces where Care Workers (local volunteers) can support each other through their challenges.
