The Alliance's mission in Manaus
In Manaus, the Alliance of Mercy works to welcome and care for homeless adults through the Casa Restaura-me (Restore Me House) and actions with the Pastoral de Rua (Street Ministry).
However, this mission also helps to reveal a deeper reality. Many stories of exclusion begin in childhood.
Experience shows that many adults currently in foster care had their rights violated in the past. Furthermore, some bear the painful scars of child labor.
Therefore, caring for adults today also means looking at old wounds. More than that, This means reaffirming that no person should live in abandonment.
Protecting childhood is building the future.
The tribute from FEPETI-AM recalls an essential truth: Protecting childhood means building a future with dignity, opportunities, and social justice..
Every child needs to grow up with their rights guaranteed. They also need to find care, protection, and the real conditions to develop their life with dignity.
When society combats child labor, it defends childhood. At the same time, it breaks cycles of poverty, abandonment, and exclusion.
Therefore, protecting children and adolescents becomes everyone's responsibility.
Gratitude and commitment
A Covenant of Mercy We thank FEPETI-AM for this recognition and for the partnership in favor of life.
We stand together, joining forces to ensure that no childhood is stolen.
We also continue working to ensure that every life receives care, respect, and dignity.
