WILLS POINT, TX – Gospel for Asia (GFA) – Discussing the reality of millions of children in Asia, a life strangled by their circumstances of poverty, denied also of a better future, the opportunity for education.

Helping your dad or mom with a project around the house? Now you’re working alongside your parents under the hot sun, doing any labor job you can find to help the family earn money.
