Enabling Students to Focus on Education and the Lord's Work

Students at Green Pastures School in Koilkado, India
Imagine being sixteen years old and having little or no elementary education, living in extreme poverty, and no foreseeable hope for your future. All that is ahead of you is a hard existence, menial wages, and darkness. This is the typical life of a rural child in India.
In 1997 the founders of Green Pastures Home School and Orphanage in Koilkado, India, took in underprivileged, orphaned or semi-orphaned and a few disabled children. While providing these young people with shelter, food, and education, they provide them hope through the love of Jesus. Often, when the students complete their education at Green Pastures, they return to their villages to provide hope to their communities, like a ray of light, guiding others toward education, understanding health and hygiene practices, and the joy of serving others toward the love of the Lord.
The current group of twenty students in 2009 ranges from age 16 to 25, girls and boys. These students are very diligent and understand the great privilege of receiving an education. These students usually have one, maybe two changes of clothing and very little personal care items. This is one place we can help!
