- Talk by Joe Parton followed by time of quiet reflection
The two children sponsored by our church, Christian and Mary, and
mentions that other individuals in the congregation also sponsor
children.
Compassion is a child-focused, church-based charity with projects in 29
countries, providing resources to alleviate poverty for sponsored
children and their families.
The charity is Christ-centered, providing scripture in the children's
own language and introducing them to Jesus as their savior.
The sponsored children have the opportunity to attend a project at a
local church, where they receive education, socialize with other
children, and are protected from unnecessary child labor.
The impact of sponsorships including over 4,300 hours spent in projects,
nearly 1,500 nutritious meals provided, 24 medical checkups, and eight
scriptures given to the children.
The countries where the sponsored children reside are Africa, Central
and South America.
Additional financial support and gifts given by the church with examples
of how these gifts have made a significant difference in the lives of
the sponsored children and their families.
The personal connection between sponsors and children key, as is the
exchange of letters and the profound impact it has on both the children
and sponsors.
