Proyecto Jonas! What You Need to Know...

Proyecto Jonas started with one man deciding to provide free meals to street children every day. This evolved to several people joining him to do the same. This evolved into some funding and housing (a foreclosure of a "farm" by government and subsequent "gift" of such to this project) and a large set of local volunteers. These young men/boys now have a structure (education, spiritual growth, chores, meals), safety (roof over head and 24/7 adult supervision and guidance) and an opportunity to develop a relationship with God. Proyecto Jonas is a ministry of Good News Church in Barquisimeto, which is affiliated with my church. You can see more about the Good News Church in Barquisimeto at http://www.lbne.org.
