26,000

I read a statistic the other day in the local paper. There are an estimated 26,000 kids in our state, ages 4 - 14, that are not going to school! Where are they? In the streets? Abandoned? We call them street orphans. There are more of them in the state of Nuevo Leon, the most modern state in all of Central America, than there are abandoned children in our children's homes! We're not running out of work yet!

It's mind boggling to think about but let's not get bogged down by the numbers. Like the starfish on the sea shore, let's make a difference for the ONE! Jesus didn't entrust us with the results. That is His responsibility. He just said "LOVE THEM!"

That's what we're gonna do!
