Story

<p>Hi, thanks for visiting my page. I am running the MK Marathon to raise sponsorship for <strong>Sunitha - Home of Faith - in India.</strong></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Sunitha is caring for</strong> <strong>60 children rescued from the granite/slate quarries</strong></span> where they were made to work each day carrying stones &amp; rubble from the digging face. In addition she is <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">caring for 15 widows &amp; a further 15 girls who are former street girls.</span></strong> Her work is an enormous testimony to determination, prayer and faith as <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">she feeds this group daily without any regular support from anywhere.</span></strong> They have no housing but are welcomed by the community of a rural village and spend every night sleeping on the floor of the church. The children of school age are now able to get an education for the first time.</span></p> <p>For more details click on link below:</p> <p><a title="Home of Faith" href="http://www.lightforce.org.uk/india/home-of-faith">http://www.lightforce.org.uk/india/home-of-faith</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
