Orphanage at Prachakittisuk Church, Thailand
The Church of Christ in Thailand founded the orphanage at Prachakittisuk in 2003 as a ministry to the community where many people have died from HIV/AIDS. The orphanage has children between ages 6 and 13 orphaned by AIDS. The orphanage provides shelter, food, medicine, clothing and scholarships. Currently there are seminary interns and one widow who work full-time at the orphanage supplemented by volunteer help from church members. The church helps other orphaned children in the community by providing scholarships, and it is also faced with the requirement of the Thai government to house the boys and the girls separately - hence there is a need to build an additional separate building.
