It’s said that Ernest Hemingway once wrote a story in just six words.
For sale: baby shoes, never worn.
And called it his best work.
In the spirit of Hemingway’s brevity, and maybe with little help from the Holy Spirit, can you sum up your sponsorship experience in six words?
Here’s what we came up with.
Thought I gave. But I received. – Tim Glenn
Now poverty isn’t just a word. – Becky Tshamler
Random pick doesn’t seem random anymore. – Chris Giovagnoni
Black smiling eyes. World beyond myself. – Amber Van Schooneveld
They focus up. I’m distracted down. – Meredith Dunn
My child shows me Him. – Brianne Mullins
Abundant life for kids in poverty. – David Dahlin
...
I give and I am blessed.
Precious angels God chose for me
We get more than we give.
Placed on my heart by God.
Jerlyn, Fernanda, Erick: My little blessings!
“Christ unites every tribe and tongue”
(See Revelation 5:9)
Child and sponsor loved and blessed.

my wife & i have been married for over 20 yrs. we were not able to have children due to financal, physical & other problems. then regina come into our lives on a compassion sunday. we were able to have the daugter we always wanted. GOD set the plan into motion, we just have to obey HIM. HE sets our hearts on the things that HE knows will bless us. i praise the LORD every time we get a letter.
Hez & I found we couldn’t have kids, which is a difficult thing.
Following on from the six word theme…
These kids have changed our world!
A child gives what they receive
Divinely appointed meeting of two people.
Hope in the hearts of children.
Just paying God’s undeserved grace forward.
Within given Love, lives eternal Hope!
Loving kids who need it most.
So many tears ; so much laughter !
It’s not about me any more!
little faces little feet huge hearts
