Let ISKCON be that guiding hand to protecr children in what ever we can. Education of Krishna and his values is foremost help then comes seva to them. This world is learning very quickly and we should not be left behind as ISKCON devotees and non formal devotees who have not obtained initiation. In fact we should be ahead of the temples.
