April Compassion Joys





It's that time of the month when we take a few moments to name all the gifts and blessings God has brought our way through the ministry of Compassion. Join us!

letters
we received 17 letters! 
Here are some highlights...
Emanuel - had happiest month of his life at Christmas
Ruth - new baby brother named Benjamin
Yoselin - saw Grandfather at Christmas (hadn't seen him in a long time)
Veronica - did well on exams and passed all her subjects
Winfrey - thanks us for the Christmas gifts; she covers herself with the blanket at night, cooked the rice and is using the socks
Jazmin - bought clothes for herself and her siblings




Compassion Sunday - 
I haven't held mine yet, but my Mom held her first and 21 kids were sponsored! 
She shared about our trip to Nicaragua earlier this year.


I spent my Compassion Sunday morning running a 1/2 marathon...
I wore my Compassion shirt and prayed for almost 2 hours as I ran. 




birthdays
