This month I did two sets of letters to my Compassion kiddos.
The first set of letters I did was online. I wrote about respecting others and treating others with kindness.
"I pray for you that you will be a Godly woman. I want to know that you will treat everyone with kindness and respect. Make sure to honor those in authority above you. And likewise, respect and care for those who are not as old or strong as you. That way, everyone will see that Jesus lives in you.
"Remember that even though you are young now that you can still be an example of a young lady who loves Jesus. As 1 Timothy 4:12 says, "Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity."
Now I am working on my Christmas card package to mail to all my kiddos. I was inspired to send cards this year to each of my kids because they may have never gotten a card before. I hope it makes them feel special :)
I got these cards a couple years ago, and they're super sweet (and cheap!). I can't find the ones I got this year.

For my older girls, I included some Sudoku like this -

I sent some sticker scenes to my little boys. I also have some cute Christmas stickers that I am sending to them all. They are stockings and ornaments and such.
Well, that is what I did for my Compassion kiddos in October. I hope this gave you some ideas or inspired you to write your sponsor children too!

Thank you for linking up for the Compassion Share & Tell! Love what you wrote about kindness and respect. And the sudoku puzzles are a great idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks!! :) I love the link-up!!
DeleteLooks good! I've started getting responses from my kids about the Sudoku I sent months ago. Some have heard of it - others have not. All said they were eager to try it. : )
ReplyDeleteThat's cool, Jill! I am sending it to all my older girls, and I hope they like it. I finally had time to write out instructions, or else I would have sent some sooner. I am excited to see what they say about it!
DeleteI love the idea of sending Sudoku to the older kids and sticker scenes to the younger kids!! And I like your online letter. I also wrote an online letter in October...it was about our upcoming baby!
ReplyDeleteHey Lizzie! Do you want some more of those baby Jesus Christmas cards? They're buy one get one free at my mom's work, and I already asked me to get some. I can send you some if you like! Just message me on OC or something if you want to. : )
