IN Network's vision is to glorify God and win men, women and children to Jesus Christ. Our mission is to connect Christian partners in effective evangelism, discipleship and community development.
Cynthia Devadason, Executive Director of I.N. Network Sri Lanka shares
the desire of herself and the management team for their ministry to the children
and young people who come to the centers.
"Out of the 1500 children who attend our three centers, 320
children are under the age of five, who attend
our Pre-School each morning. We notice that they 'cling' to teachers and often follow
them around. After reading the story of a little boy and his mother in 'Chicken
Soup for the Christian Soul' entitled 'In Mother's Footsteps', we are
challenged daily to be 'shepherds' who lead the little ones to follow in the
footsteps of the Lord Jesus Christ. As teachers we constantly remind ourselves
that we are appointed to serve in this place and that our 'servings' to each
boy and each girl, whatever age group they belong to, will be with a different
flavour to what they usually get from so many other sources in their
environment each day.
"We value your prayers and support which is your valuable
contribution to us to prepare the 'servings' we offer boys and girls, men and
women in the communities around, who desperately need this 'spiritual' nourishment
which will strengthen each one of them to overcome the physical, emotional,
mental and social needs they face."
