This is Genesis our new "daughter". Isn't she precious! God was really speaking to Rollie and I about sponsoring a child through
Compassion. So we did back in Aug and are so excited about Genesis!
She is from Honduras, one of the poorest countries in Central America. Typical houses are constructed of cement and have zinc roofs. The spoken language is Spanish. Their diet consists of maize, beans, rice and spaghetti.
We wanted to pick a child that R could relate to because the normal sponsorship goes through to their 18th Birthday. So we picked a little girl similar in age with R. Genesis' bday is 6/25/08.
Our sponsorship provides so much to this little girl: allows the staff of Amigos de Jesús Student Center to provide your sponsored child with Bible teaching, medical checkups, health and hygiene education, field trips, group games, special celebrations, counseling, academic support, school supplies, uniforms and shoes. The center staff will also provide evangelism, special celebrations and opportunities for project involvement for the parents or guardians of your sponsored child.
Matthew 25:40 says:
And the King will answer them, 'Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.'Matthew 5:14 says: "You are the
light of the
world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.
