Motion for Missions 2010 has started. We are going to Central Asia to help build a transition center to help special needs children who have grown up in institutions, and feel they have no future, except one filled with abuse. The Transition center will offer hope for the future of special needs children becoming adults who have been institutionalized all their life.
