Compassion Sunday

Well in two weeks, it will the national Compassion Sunday!  Sadly, I will not have the opportunity to participate with a church this year.

However, I did set up a Compassion Sunday page.  So, I wanted to update you all.  Unfortunately, I still have not found a sponsor for Yadira yet.  Three days ago, she turned five.

The same day, my Hymns turned six years old.  So, I think back to the day that I saw Hymns for the first time.  I think of how she changed my life by bringing me to Compassion.  Because of her, I now have gotten to know eleven precious children.  But, I also wonder what it would have been like if I sponsored her.

And, I think of Yadira- the girl with the same birthday.  I wonder what she is like.  Perhaps she's like my Hymns.  She's smiling, just like Hymns was.

One thing is for sure, though, they are both important and precious little girls.  Poverty has told them that are not important or special.  Little Yadira doesn't have a sponsor telling her that she is important, and she needs that special person encouraging her.

Will you be that special person?

  1. Awww, she is adorable! I so hope she finds a sponsor soon! I am leading Compassion Sunday at my church, the first we've ever had, and I'm really nervous. Not about speaking, but I'm so worried about finding sponsors. I haven't even looked at the packets yet because I'm afraid I'll worry over them. I need to open my box and pray over them daily though, from here out. This was a good reminder.

    1. Thank you, Sonja. I am excited for you to be able to do a CS. I will be praying for the children too. Even if only one finds a sponsor, it is one. And that child is precious, and her life will be changed forever! Many blessings on your CS :)
