This is the 18th letter I received from Judith Wanga, my first sponsored child in Kenya. This letter is dated November 22, 1997. I love how this letter demonstrates the ministry of Compassion in such a personal and tangible way.
Praise be to God for his mercy and protection towards our daily lives. I'm happy to be in the Lord and I wish to stay under his guidance throughout my life. Indeed I am very grateful for the daily support I get from you which sustains me in the Compassion programme. Your support is of great help to me in particular and even to my family as a whole. It's through your support that I'm able to grow spiritually, physically, academically and socially fit in the community.
This is my first year in training. I am doing a tailoring course. I am faring on well and with full confidence I do believe that I shall succeed and be a good tailor/dress maker at the end of my training course. The church has given a plot ot my Compassion project to construct on a skills workshop. Already the workshop has been erected and parents plus pupils are busy working on it during this December holidays. The workshop will be used as a training centre (school) for carpentry and tailoring skills as from early next year.
We have a new social worker at my project. He is saved. He is Mr. Aswani Harizon.
Your sponsored child,
Judith Wanga
