Alliance Dump Outreach Celebrates

November 12, 2008

Inca Link Peru, a compassionate outreach started by Alliance missionaries Rich and Lisa Brown, is celebrating one year of government recognition and an all-Peruvian board. This ministry was established to bring relief to families living in a local garbage dump near Trujillo. “We have a day-care center that cares for the kids while their parents work in the dump, and we are feeding and teaching 60 children with the help of a sponsorship program,” said Rich and Lisa. “Every time we go to visit the day care, we are amazed at what God is doing!”  
 
In the same way, Inca Link Ecuador was started and is now officially recognized by the Ecuadorian government. Recently, Inca Link Ecuador purchased a property with five finished structures (three of them homes) for the incredible price $300,000. It will be used to establish Casa Blanca, a ministry center for those in need of hope and healing.  
 
“Casa Blanca will be a refuge for the hurting and vulnerable of society who need a second chance,” said the Browns. “Women who have proven themselves faithful in prison will be given a chance to work in a legitimate manner once they get out of prison at a sewing factory being set up for them. This will keep them off the streets and give them dignity.  
 
“Casa Blanca also will provide a secure home for young pregnant teens who have been abandoned by their boyfriends, family, friends, and, in some cases, the church.”
