Human services determined that in
2010, besides the estimated 2.1
million orphans in America, 754,000
children were confirmed victims of
" maltreatment"- through either neglect
or physical, emotional, or sexual abuse.
According to another report, an estimated
254 ,375 entered foster care for the first
time, and 254,114 were released. Yes
those numbers really are that close. And
the same is true every year a survey is done.
Essentially for each child who leaves the
system, another takes his or her place in an
endless cycle of turmoil and instability, but
for the children and the overburdened
caseworkers who do their best to look after
them".( Source: A publication of In Touch
Ministries - June 2013, p:33).
This report is one small piece of a huge dilemma that faces literally thousands children each
day.The U.S situation is nothing to be compare to the World condition. Now without giving
you graphic details of the brokenness, the wound carried by this sediment of the children
around us I simple request your prayers with me for them today." THEY DO NEED OUR
HELP."
That is my take for today, remember our motto is: " Think critically and pray strategically."
Have a fantastic day. so long partners.
