1 You want your CHURCH actively ENGAGED in SERVICE and DISCIPLESHIP. Our TEAM can HELP.
2 We need to get people engaged in missions so they can be the kind of disciples that Jesus commissioned us to be: people who don t just say it, but do it. When we neglect to help the least of these, we ve lost the core essence of what it means to be a disciple of Christ. Dr. Stacy L. Spencer It s a challenge to help your congregants GROW from church attenders into passionate DISCIPLES of Christ who have a HEART for the LOST on a GLOBAL scale. NEW DIRECTION CHRISTIAN CHURCH TENNESSEE We teach biblical principles, but we also have to give people some tools to put these principles in action. We need something that is easy, tangible, accessible to most families and really makes a difference. Chris Brown NORTH COAST CHURCH CALIFORNIA
3 Compassion s child sponsorship program is a simple discipleship tool that gives individuals and families in your church a way to ACTIVELY ENGAGE in GLOBAL MISSIONS through personal, one-on-one RELATIONSHIPS with CHILDREN in POVERTY. When German Martinez of Nicaragua first became sponsored in 2006, he and his sponsor wrote back and forth to learn more about each other. My love for my sponsor and his family grew as I saw how interested they were in me and my family, said German. RELATIONSHIPS are central to Jesus teaching about how to LOVE PEOPLE, and they are essential to the way we believe children in poverty should be served. Two-thirds of the people in our church sponsor a child through Compassion. In our experience, generosity begets generosity. As people are generous in sponsorship, they are in our church as well. Joby Martin FOUNDING & LEAD PASTOR THE CHURCH OF ELEVEN22 FLORIDA A few years into the relationship, German learned his sponsor was sick and didn t know Christ. German s father led their family in prayer over the sponsor s health and salvation. Their letter writing continued, and German received the news that his sponsor was well enough to come and visit him. When my son s sponsor arrived, I was excited, said German s mother, Jamileth. We hugged each other and showed lots of affection. A few months after the visit, German learned his sponsor had passed away. My family cried, said German. The family s grief softened when they learned German s sponsor had accepted the Lord before his death. We were so thankful the Lord heard our prayers, said Jamileth. German had kept all of the letters and photos his sponsor sent him over the years. Today he is able to look at them fondly and add new letters to his collection, this time from his sponsor s daughter. She is now sponsoring German, continuing her father s legacy.
4 Choose a country that complements your church s existing missions work, or select a new country where your church will have the opportunity to become personally involved in serving and discipling children in poverty. As churches we need to ask ourselves: where in the world is God calling us to create change? From experience I can tell you: when you unleash hope around the world for Jesus you ll feel it in your church, too. Because when hope rises, everything changes. Ray Johnston BAYSIDE CHURCH CALIFORNIA
5 Pastor Oscar Torres IGLESIA LIRIO DE LOS VALLES CIUDAD SANDINO NICARAGUA We work in PARTNERSHIP with LOCAL CHRISTIAN CHURCHES because we believe they are uniquely qualified to serve their communities. That means when your U.S. church partners with Compassion to serve children in poverty, you are also fueling INDIGENOUS CHURCHES, giving these bodies of Christ a RENEWED ability to bring HOPE to hurting places. Our partnership with Compassion has been a milestone for our church. It gave us a foothold in the community. Pastor Buddy Espante THE JOYFUL CHURCH ASSEMBLY OF GOD PHILIPPINES Reverend Charles Karanja PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF EAST AFRICA NGECHA KENYA If you re going to make an impact overseas, you need a good partner. You need someone who knows what to do, and what not to do. Compassion is a pastor s dream because when they invest in families, they invest through the structure of a healthy, indigenous church. Brian Berg WOODLANDS CHURCH WISCONSIN
6 When you encourage members of your church family to choose a child in poverty, and they begin loving, supporting and praying for that child in the name of Jesus, a SPIRITUALLY SYMBIOTIC RELATIONSHIP takes place. Each person sponsor and child has the potential to impact the other in a beautiful, significant way. At Compassion, we consider it a TRUE BLESSING to stand with the Church to GROW DISCIPLES of Christ, both at home and internationally. If you d like to talk about ways we could serve in ministry TOGETHER, contact us. One of our congregants who was formerly homeless sponsored a child. Here was a man, 12 months off the street, who saw a need and obeyed the Bible. This is the real religion James talks about. Léonce B. Crump, Jr. LEAD PASTOR RENOVATION CHURCH GEORGIA CALL churches@compassion.com VISIT compassion.com/churches
7 Since 1952, Compassion International has been bringing HOPE to CHILDREN IN POVERTY around the world. Our programs are delivered exclusively in partnership with LOCAL CHRISTIAN CHURCHES, and are designed to serve each child as a complete person, tending to their physical, social, spiritual and emotional needs. Financial STEWARDSHIP is a responsibility we take seriously. Historically, at least 80 PERCENT of every dollar is invested directly into programs that support our mission of releasing children from poverty in Jesus name.
