Description
A ministry to street children in Medellin, Colombia. The ministry is based out of the US office at Perrow Presbyterian Church at 5345 Big Tyler Road in Cross Lanes, WV 25313 (304-776-1511). The ministry was founded in 1991 by Bill Perrow (grandson of person who donated land for the Church) and consists of a Downtown Center in Medellin where street children come in for food and education, a Boys' Farm outside of Medellin near San Pedro where boys from the steeet are raised until they are 18, and the Girls' Farm at Guarne for pregnant teens on the street. The Foundation attempts to give the boys and girls a home, an education and job skill training.
