“Jesus Christ greatly changed my life“. Since the last time I wrote our sponsored child, Mathewos prayed to trust Jesus as his Lord and Savior! Rejoice!
That is the reason that we cannot ignore the poor around the world. Jesus saves.
“Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples.” (Psalm 96:3)
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”. (Matthew 28:19)
We can discuss all day about physical needs and specific strategies for relief, development, building projects, hygiene, food distribution, medical stations, school buildings, and clean water, but when it all comes down to it, a child living in poverty, or in wealth is a child who is lost unless they’ve found the Savior; Jesus.
The God I serve is not confined to one country in the west. To believe that we should only be concerned with fellow Americans rather then helping globally is to suggest that 95% of the world’s population does not count. I’m not OK with that. The rest of the world does matter, and people, like Mathewos, are coming to find the love of Jesus!
I find great joy in knowing that FH is helping to provide clean water, food, education and medical assistance through our sponsorship…but the salvation of one of our precious sponsored children is reason to celebrate! Today, the angels in Heaven rejoice! Let’s join them….
To experience the joy of sharing the Gospel and providing for physical needs to a child living in poverty, join us today by sponsoring a child at
