We help the children of Filipino inmates, to free children from a life behind bars

Story

As part of our trip to Asia this year, we're spending a week serving with the team at POCM (Philippine Outreach Centre Ministries). The ministry is set up to make a difference in the lives of people in The Philippines. They have a children's home that cares for Filipino children who are abandoned, living in poverty, and/or their parents are in prison. They also provide food, shelter, education and a hope for a better future. As well as the children's home, they also minister in 4 different prisons every week, reach out to some of the poorest communities, run a school and have planted 4 churches.

We wanted to do this fundraiser to give something back and to really bless this ministry, particularly in the run up to Christmas.

Watch our vlogs on YouTube to see more of what POCM is involved in, and more about our time spent with them this week.
