Happy birthday
Many children in India have no idea which day they were born and how old they are. Here in our Kolkata Child Rescue and Development Centre we have decided to make it a high priority to celebrate each child!
Recently we celebrated the birthdays of 6 of our Kolkata kids. It was a great day with games, decorations, cake, sweets, gifts and a reminder that each one of them are special and worth celebrating! One of our newest girls (pictured below) especially enjoyed the day. For Nisha, there will never be an official record of her birth because she was abandoned by her parents when she was very young. However from now on her birthday will be set as the date she was rescued and given hope for the future!
Thanks for your support, Jeanette Thompson.

Wow! What a beautiful story!! I would love to partner with you in ministry someday soon. I will be in Kolkata next summer with a team of missionary students from Florida.
