King`s Kids Need You - Lumiere Medical Ministries
Spring 2014 King's Kids Need You The Did you know... that the King’s Organization is much more than a hospital? King’s Garden children’s home located next to the hospital is an integral part of the King’s ministry. The Garden’s 32 children are provided with food, shelter and education in a loving Christian environment. It is the hope of King’s board of directors to raise up a new generation of believers equipped for a lifetime of Christian service. In addition to the full-time children, another 75 students from the community attend King’s school; some are boarded on weekdays while others commute daily. Many more children still living in temporary tent encampments from the earthquake of 2010 are anxious to enroll. LMM volunteer works - and plays with the children at King’s Garden Just another reason King’s needs your help to ensure monthly operating costs are available to sustain this ministry.
