- We really want to open a girls home. There are so many girls and new ones every day. We just can't take in any more girls in the one house, we really need a separate house for girls. Which means a separate staff for the girls. It takes 7 people to run one house. We are planning to open the Girl's Shelter House by February 2010.
- We also want to re-open the drop-in center NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We need 5 people to run that.
- We are also dreaming of an alternative school for all the street kids not just the ones living in our shelters. So for that we would need a whole teaching staff M-F. And this would include feeding breakfast and lunch.
- We also have thought about the possibility of starting a business here where the kids could work...thought is a coffee shop where live bands would come and play and board games would be on the tables sort of a family place but definitely a place where street-people could walk in and be welcomed and ministered to.
- We want to start "Frontline"; this ministry would be strictly to the streets and those who are still in and on the streets. The Frontline team would go out nightly and witness, pray for, bring food and medical help to those on the streets.
- We dream of one day having a YWAM Children At Risk School here in Project Destiny Kids, where people form around the world will come and learn how to do street kid ministry.
- Teresa will be asking one of the local Bible Colleges to partner with us. She would teach a course in the college on street kids then the 5th year Bible College students would intern by working in either the drop-in center or one of the Shelter houses or be part of the Frontline team
All of these dreams will happen in God's timing, it's just that they are burning in our hearts now. And kids are literally dieing in the streets now. So we are praying and belieiving for more staff, buildings, and increased financial support.
