HELP Manila, Noah's Arc Children Ministry. A short while ago, the staff of ''Noah's Arc'' received an invitation from the president of the Philippines! The commencement of a new law was going to be celebrated, which ought to minimize corruption during adoption procedure.
Until now the final adjudication whether a child could be adopted or not was in the hands of judges. And everybody knew, that without palm greasing (bribery) nothing was going to happen at all.
Since our ministry, ''Noah's Arc'', refused to pay bribes, some of the children stayed in the orphanage for years, although they could have been adopted long ago. Their papers were just sitting on the desks and never dealt with.
This problem was one of our frequent prayer requests.
Just now the government effectively commenced the new law which says that the child protective service is solely responsible for the whole adoption process.
We are thrilled and believe that this is God's intervention!
To mark the occasion several staff from different orphanages were invited to the presidential palace to witness the passing of the new bill.
