Children at Alon |
|
With so many different families living on our base, we have approximately 80 children currently within the community including many orphans (who are very much a part of our family) and high school-going children from the outside who attend and board at Blue Mountain College. As a people, we have been very blessed to experience healthy and wholesome children at Alon, very much in accordance with God’s promise to us that He would bless the womb and protect the unborn child on our land. We have set up a children’s home for the care of orphans sent to us by the Department of Social Welfare. While we will never turn away any orphan, our focus is to care for children who have genuinely lost both parents and have no immediate family willing to take care of them. Many orphans arrive as subjects of severe abuse and neglect, but it is wonderful to see the growth and blessing on each and every orphan as God has promised to give back what the enemy has stolen from them. The addition of school-going boarders has added a new dimension to at Alon and we are very excited for God’s plan for the children at Blue Mountain College. |
