Child Sponsorship
Here are ways you can get involved.
As a family of disciples on Mission, we walk alongside strategic partners around the world to bring the love and hope of Jesus and humbly be an expression of God’s justice and mercy.
I met Breidy, her mom and sister at the Women’s Ministry gathering when our team was in Honduras last March. Her mom was sitting alone and my heart went out to her. I found out that their family is one of the poorest in the area. On the last day we were there I was able to meet Breidy’s father and speak with him as well. Soon, we were able to sponsor her! When I went to Honduras in November I was able to see Breidy and her family at the medical clinic. Her father couldn’t thank me enough for our support for their family.
