Sri Lanka

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."
