Pastor Steven Turikunkiko has set up a community in Rwanda for victims of the genocide. 160 widows & teenagers & 80 younger children live with him; farming, sharing their lives and caring for those dying from AIDS. The community subsists on less than $1 per person per day. At enormous personal sacrifice, Pastor Steven and his wife have also adopted 20 orphans - who live with them and their 2 other children.

Foreigners are allowed to adopt Nepali children again. A 2007 ban, put in place because of widespread corruption, has now been overturned. Three couples from the USA are the first to adopt children and take them home in recent weeks.
