One of my goals is to
add value to someone’s life every single day. I believe this was the heart of
my Savior Jesus. Everyone He visited and everyone He spoke to and everyone He
touched were blessed.
I work hard to
accomplish this and at the end of every day I ask myself, “who’s life did you
impact today for the Kingdom of God?” One thing I do know is that my family’s
picture is sitting in the family room of the child I sponsor through Compassion
International. I believe that not only does my sponsorship help meet his needs
every day, but it adds value to his life every day too! That makes me happy,
and it glorifies my Father in heaven.
Today there are many
children to choose from. In our church foyer there are dozens of kids from El
Salvador that need a sponsor family. Will
you consider sponsoring one of them? Our goal is to see 20 children from El
Salvador sponsored by Shadycrest families. Added to this we pray God will open
the door for us to travel to El Salvador in the future to do mission work
amongst the people we are praying for and sponsoring through Compassion.
One important thing to
note about Compassion International is that you can trust them. Compassion
consistently receives the highest ratings for financial accountability and
integrity. Charity Navigator, America’s largest charity evaluator, has
awarded Compassion its highest rating—4 stars—each of the past 14 years. This
consecutive run places Compassion in the top 1% of all charities.
This Sunday, October 18th, the El Salvador children will be in the Worship Center Foyer. If you have not gotten a chance to sponsor a child, you can do it then.
