A safe place

A particular challenge was the admission of two-and-a-half-year-old Demily, who was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia following emergency treatment. Two-and-a-half-year-old J., who was born HIV-positive, also found a new home at Agape Children’s Village in early April through the social services office.

At the home, the children receive medical care, loving support, and a stable daily routine that fosters positive development. For some, progress in behavior, health, and social integration is already visible. A few have even been able to join kindergarten.

The house mothers play a key role, guiding the children through their daily lives and providing them with structure. Their dedication lays the foundation for the children to stabilize and thrive.

To show their appreciation for this service, the five house mothers, together with the home’s management, took a trip to a national park. The time spent together offered an opportunity to take a break from the intense daily routine and recharge their energy.

The developments of the past few months demonstrate how crucial a reliable environment, Christian care, and dedicated staff are in helping children from difficult backgrounds gain new stability and hope for the future.
