<p>In the midst of this chaotic world, we do not waiver and we do not blink, as we pursue our single-minded strategy of &#8220;Christian holistic development of <a target="_blank" alt="children in poverty" href="http://www.compassion.com/sponsor_a_child/default.htm">children in poverty</a> through sponsorship.&#8221; We will never raise a white flag in surrender to the evil raging against us. </p>
<p>In the face of extreme poverty, courageous leadership requires determination and faith. Courage isn&#8217;t the absence of fear, it&#8217;s moving forward despite the fear. </p>
