Nothing is more exciting than getting an envelope in the mail that says a "Message from Your Sponsored Child". We love sponsoring two children in Africa. It is so exciting to get their letters and to get to know an individual that lives in such a foreign land from ours. It is surely a blessing to know that maybe we are helping two children to grow up safe and healthy with a good education that might help them to make a difference in their world. We have gotten to know so much about these children. We feel like they are part of our family. We share letters about our families, our adventures, our pets, our hobbies, our photos, and our dreams. We also share our love of God. I think one of my favorite letters was when our child from Uganda said that she and her family were celebrating, because their cow had given birth to a healthy calf and that they praised God for us, because the cow that had given birth was the cow that they had bought with the money that we had given them. How exciting it was to read that just a small amount of our money had truly made a difference in this family's life! I highly recommend if you have just a little extra time and money for you to sponsor a child through Compassion International: www.compassion.com/default.htm. It is so simple & I bet that if you do, your heart will be bursting with joy as soon as you receive your first treasured letter! :)
