She paused abruptly on the jungle trail. What was
that soft feeble sound coming from the rainforest
undergrowth? Was it a bird or a small animal? She
stood and listened.
Then she slowly bent over and peered through the leafy
jungle vegetation. To her surprise she found a tiny
infant boy. He had been abandoned on the remote Nicaraguan
jungle trail. The infant was dehydrated, covered with
stinging insects, and crying weakly. The woman picked
up the baby and gently cradled him in her arms.
The little infant was near death when she brought
him to the Kids for the Kingdom orphan
home in Nueva Guinea, Nicaragua. There our caretakers
nursed the infant boy back to health. They named him
‘Moises’ (Moses).
For the next few years Moses (seen in photo top-right)
grew up in the Kids for the Kingdom orphan
home. He recovered fully and became a normal two-year-old
boy. Then one day he was adopted by a loving Christian
family in Nicaragua.
Today Moses loves the Lord and is growing into a fine
young man.
Moses is just one of hundreds of children we minister
to each day. Kids for the Kingdom
reaches children in many corners of Nicaragua. In
addition to the orphan home where Moses grew up we
feeding programs, mercy projects, Christian schools,
Christmas Shoeboxes, outreach to hospitals, job-training
projects, disaster relief, and micro-enterprise loan
programs. The ministry programs in La Concha, Nueva
Guinea, Leon, Los Braziles, Ometepe Island, Cedro
Galan, and Managua reach 2,822 children and families
each year.
