HouseOfPeaceDelhi PattyJanuary 28 –

The atmosphere at the “House of Peace” in New Delhi India is a great family feel. As our team walked into the house we were welcomed with warm hospitality: Indian Chai and snacks. Three of the older girls shared their stories with us, and told of their hopes and dreams for the future. Salma impressed us with her graceful maturity. She has been in the House of Peace for 8 years and she is a leader to the younger ones. She was one of the first kids to arrive at the House. Her dream is to be a missionary when she grows up. Peace and Joy radiate from her face. After tea we met the 26 other kids. They were full of life and joy. They sang songs in Hindi and English, and did a skit about a boy who was verbally abused, but someone shared Jesus with him and he was freed from the shame of those words. The name says it all….this is a “house of peace”. The staff of “House of Peace” are to be commended. The fruit of their years of love for these kids is obvious!
