Life Center Nutrition Ministry
Sensitive Country
Mission:
To provide a safe place for at-risk children from impoverished families to receive hot meals, school supplies, and scholarships to attend public school, discipleship classes, English instruction, and skills training.
Since 2005, Life Center has been a beacon of hope in the remote mountains of a sensitive country in Peninsular Asia. This year, they are helping 100 students from impoverished communities who struggle to scratch out a hard living. Life Center creates a safe place for such students to reach their full potential in Christ and to avoid the risks of exploitation. They receive hot meals daily, discipleship classes, school supplies, and scholarships, since even public school is not free. These nutritious meals give the students the strength and focus that they need to succeed in school and in life.
Target for 2024: $23,600
Breakdown: 700 meals a week at $.64/meal
Additional Details: Life Center has been instrumental in discipling and developing church leaders in this sensitive country whose religion is predominately Buddhist and Animist. The country is closed to the gospel. Even though there is not an established, recognized church to support the ministry, Life Center is working toward being as self-sustaining as possible through the Business as Missions platform of a language center and student cafe.
Pray:
Pray for the ministry and for believers to stand strong in the midst of difficulty and persecution. Pray for the children and families who Life Center serves. Pray for provision and sustained health so that these children can reach their full potential.
