Show compassion through Compassion
Many of you may already know about Compassion International, the organization providing care and opportunities to children in 24 countries around the world. What you may not know is that right now there are over 143 orphans living in this world. For some astounding stats see here.
The mission of Compassion Int’l is:
Releasing children from poverty in Jesus’ name
In response to the Great Commission, Compassion International exists as an advocate for children, to release them from their spiritual, economic, social and physical poverty and enable them to become responsible and fulfilled Christian adults.
Beginning today Andy and I have joined others to commit to featuring one child a week on our blogs. We have further committed to choosing children who have been waiting for sponsorship the longest. Please pray and think about a commitment to one of these children.
The weekly schedule:
- Toby K on Mondays
- Andy on Tuesdays
- Caffeineted Faith on Wednesdays
- Shawn W on Thursdays
- ME on Fridays!!
This is a big deal! Children are starving. It is only a small amount out of your paycheck each month to make such a huge difference!!!! So, think about it, pray about it, and think about what BIG things God is doing through organizations like this with a little help from you and me.
