The Gift of Education

As Christmas approaches, I am sure that some of you are quickly trying to finish up last-minute Christmas shopping.  If you are struggling to find the perfect gift for someone, then let me help you out.  Instead of giving a mediocre present that is bound to be re-gifted next year, why don't you give a gift that will last a lifetime.  The gift of education can impact a child for the rest of his or her life--not to mention the impact that it can have on a community.  So, why not sponsor a child or give a donation to Compassion International in someone's name.  You will be blessing a child overseas and you will also be blessing the person whose name you sponsored the child in.  Nothing is more important than helping a child to have a brighter future.  I hope that you consider this suggestion.  Merry Christmas!

Compassion in Ethiopia

Compassion International is at work in the hearts and lives of the people in Ethiopia.  It is wonderful to see the impact that this one organization has.  Compassion International began their work in Ethiopia in 1993.  Now, over 85,000 children are participating in the 373  child development centers located across Ethiopia.  This organization is truly amazing!
