First of all, I'd like to take this opportunity to praise God for what He is doing through Compassion International! When I first started this blog, I planned on updating twice a month with a new featured child. But I haven't had to wait that long on any single child before that child was sponsored! I had no idea that so many people are sponsoring children through Compassion. Each child that is featured on here has been in my prayers, not only that they would find a sponsor but that they would find Jesus Christ as their Savior. Well, the prayers for sponsors have all been answered, and I continue to pray for their salvation. I know sponsors can be a great help in this area, also.
