Soul Touch Prayer Advent Calender - Chilling childhood

Any of you that have managed to keep up with the blog throughout the year (legends!) will remember my emotional blog about our visit to the remand centre in Uganda. This centre was set up by the Ugandan government as an answer to the many homeless, abandoned children cluttering the streets of Kampala. The original idea was a place where the children could be brought for rehabilitation, support and with the hope that they would leave the centre returning to a loving family, well cared for and well behaved. The centre as it stands now doesn’t even maintain a whispering of that initial hope. The children are deprived of all of their basic physical, emotional, spiritual and psychological needs. They run around the empty, echoing halls covered in filth, afraid of abuse, with hungry tummies before falling asleep on the floor or under a hole-covered mosquito net. Please don’t push this difficult scene to the back of your mind. Please share this knowledge to raise awareness and of course remember them in your prayers.
