Sharing Our Compassion

Today we received a letter from our sponsored child, Nathalia from Brazil. I've said it before and I'll say it again... I absolutely love being part of her life (and Charles' life- he lives in Kenya).

Today Nathalia told us about her favorite subjects in school and how she is doing. She shared with us about her little brother and pet monkey, Mico. She told us how excited she is that her mom is going to be getting married. She then told us that she prays for us and hopes we are well. She always draws a picture to send to us also. It is such an honor to get to be part of her life- to pray for her, to write letters to her and encourage her and also to financially support her.

If you haven't thought or prayed about sponsoring a child, I encourage you to do so. Check out http://www.compassion.com/ for more information and see how much only $38 per month can accomplish for these precious children! Not only will you be a blessing to them, but they will bless your heart as well!

***************
Mark 9:36-37 
He took a little child and had him stand among them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them, "Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me."
