November 6th is Orphan Sunday

Orphan care in countries around the world is failing. For example, in Ukraine, when orphans grow out of the orphanage...
  • 70% end up in crime -
  • 50% of girls become prostitutes -
  • 33% are homeless and unemployed -
  • 30% commit suicide within 2 years -
  • 80% of those who marry divorce -
On Sunday, November 6th , the Christian Alliance for Orphans is promoting Orphan Sunday. See their “Partnership Packages” that can help your church get involved with ministry to orphans this Orphan Sunday. Click on this video to learn more about the needs of these children:
