Ministry in Gyor
For the past 6 years, Gerry and Kathy McNamara have been showing the love of Christ to children in the Gyor children's home. The children range in age from 5 to 18. 60-70% of these kids are trafficked. Gerry and Kathy are working on prevention in hopes of making that statistic much less.
Gerry tells of a time when there was a 15 year old girl who ran away from the children't home to live with her "boyfriend" and her family. One morning she overheard him and his parents discussing how to sell her. She ran 10 miles to the nearest train station, begging for help and eventually she was rescued and placed in a more secure children's home. This is just one story.
Please pray for encouragement for Gerry and Kathy as they continue to minister weekly to these children. This will also be a part of our ministry when we move to Gyor and we are excited to partner with the McNamara's!
