Beginning in 2000, when our

Since that first trip, we have revisited Estonia and sponsored several Estonians to visit the epicenter in Galt.

First Baptist Church Galt actively supports the
Sanyu Babies Home. 

As of September 2004 there
were 41 children, ranging from  
1 month to 3-1/2 years old. 

40 of the 41 children are abandoned without any family   or relatives according to Joyce Lulindya, the home's
Administrator.

"The babies are abandoned in
trash heaps, hospitals, car/taxi
parks, bushes and on the
grounds of the babies home," according to Lulindya.

Donations, primarily from FBC's "Retired" Sunday School class
have provided salaries for two nurses over the past year.

We will be posting some 
pictures of the Sanyu Babies
Home and some of the children 
in the near future. In the
meantime if you would like to contribute to this very
worthwhile cause, you can send
a donation of any amount to:
