There is a Street Child Ministry (in its beginnings) in Mexico City. There are a group of nationals who weekly go to various metro stations to do a "Vacation Bible School" type program. I had the privileged in participating the last few weeks and just loved it! The kids are rough, and not well behaved, but the are precious and full of joy. For a lot of these children (ages 3 to 13ish) school is not very important, drugs deals are already a way to make money, and their parents give them little to no supervision or discipline.... they are essentially on their own. The ministry group that visits the metro stations weekly has built relationships with the children and have "regulars" that come back every week.
