I am curious what the Bangladesh children think of their American sponsors. I’m sure they are aware of at least some of the news about our conflicts with countries with predominately Muslim populations. Do they have mixed feelings about American sponsors because of that?

For both of you-If you could tell us (as sponsors) just one thing, what would it be?

For Cesiah-Sometimes I feel, as a mom of a 3 year old, that I can’t do as much because my daughter is young and requires a lot of time. How do you juggle your time with your 2 1/2 year old son and all the children you encounter daily?

For both of you – if you could have one wish granted for the children you work with, what would that wish be?

I had the distinct blessing of being in a car with Cesiah and her husband and little boy for about 10 hours when my dad and I visited his sponsored child last February. I asked her all sorts of questions. I can’t think of anything that I haven’t asked her. I can say this though that Cesiah is one of the most gracious, friendly, giving persons on the planet! She and her family were majorly amazing and a huge blessing and her little boy taught me the meaning of the Spanish word for ball: pelota!!!

My question is more “curious” in nature: how far do the students travel, on average, to get to the centers and how do they do so? (walk, bus, etc.)

Thanks for fielding our questions!!

I would like to know the specifics of how the global food crisis is affecting the people in Bangladesh and how it has affected Compassion’s program there? Have you cut back days that the children meet? Has it made a difference in the type of food that you can afford to serve the children?

David and Cesiah, first of all, thank you so much for all you do for the precious children of Bangladesh and Mexico! My question is, as you go through each day seeing a multitude of needs in these children’s lives, what do you find yourself praying for most often?
