Raissa
Raissa is a 7-year-old little girl living in Burkino Faso. She lives with her father and mother, who are both sometimes employed as farmers, and 5 other children. Raissa is responsible for helping in the kitchen and cleaning.
Raissa enjoys jumping rope, playing group games, and playing hide-and-seek. She regularly attends church activities and Bible class. She is in primary school where her performance is average.
This little girl has been waiting for a sponsor for over six months. She also lives in and AIDS affected area, so your prayers are needed for her and her family. Please CLICK HERE to view her picture and more information.
This is a blog to feature some of the many children who are waiting for sponsors through Compassion International. My family sponsors 3 children through their ministry, and we have enjoyed it very much. If you have any questions about Compassion feel free to ask me, or visit Compassion's web site at www.compassion.com.
If you are a sponsor already or if you decide to sponsor a child, please leave me a comment and let me know!
