Our vision is for vulnerable children and their communities to be transformed by the gospel and to make disciples. Web: lifelinechild.orgEmail: [email protected], Instagram, Twitter: @lifelinechildThe Defender Podcast: Subscribe on iTunes | Stitcher | SpotifyThe Defender Bible Study: Subscribe on iTunes | Stitcher | Spotify
