Sunday Praise (And Plea)

For about two months or so now, I've been an advocate for Compassion International. Basically, that means that Compassion sends me packets of children who are waiting for sponsors and it is my job to find those sponsors and get the relationship off to a great start.

I feel so extremely blessed that God has called me to be an advocate. Since I've started as an advocate, I have found sponsors for four beautiful children. All four of those children were sponsored by people who are so eager to get to know their children and to begin writing for them. I just praise God daily that I am able to have this wonderful job.

I want to share with you the five lovely children I currently have in my possession. I ask for you to pray for these children. Pray that they know the love of Jesus. Pray that they stay healthy and continue to try their best at school. Pray that they find loving sponsors who will tell them how wonderful they are and how they do matter in this world.

If, while praying, you feel drawn to sponsor one of these children, please email me at Groth.Kayla@mail.ic.edu and let me know. I will get you started on the adventure that is child sponsorship!

These first two boys are from IN860. This project is smack dab in the middle of a red light district. Most adults in this community are either unemployed or they work in the sex industry, as prostitutes, pimps, or sex traffickers. These two boys deserve to know that they do not have to enter that life. There is a future for them outside of sex work. They deserve a sponsor to tell them that they do count in this life. These two packets expire on 9-28.
