Location India - It's A Girl

Number of children at the center 13

Center Story This center serves a community of nomads on the outskirts of the village. Sister Sheba heads up the staff team and although her husband is chronically ill, she still finds time to care for the unwanted baby girls. The nomadic people are very isolated from other people and believe in fortune telling. They are especially cautious of Christians as they believe their good fortune can be lost if they anger the ancestral spirits they have worshipped for generations. Sheba began to be welcomed into the community when parents noticed their children’s health improving from the nutritious food she shares with them. Slowly, trust was earned, and more parents began sending their baby girls to the center. Meeting practical needs has provided the local church with opportunities to share the love of Christ in both word and deed.
