It is one thing to read about the work that Compassion International is doing. It is quite another to actually visit it. I had the privilege of visiting one of the churches who host a Compassion child development center. It was impressive. They start with helping expectant mothers get the nourishment and medical help they need to have and raise a healthy baby. They then help as many children as they can through the child sponsorship program. This type of help is really making a difference. I am so glad we have begun this partnership through Compassion International.

It is a privilege to pray for you, James and Bob. We will all be blessed by the efforts you are taking to learn about our partner church. As you think outside the box and imagine all the skills our church body has and would be willing to share, we are looking forward to learning what the leadership there would be open to having us do. God bless you.
