Where God guides, He provides!


We had an absolutely incredible time at the Compassion conference in Regina! We can say with complete confidence now more than ever that the lives of little children are being forever changed! We were also encouraged to pray through Isaiah 58 and we would encourage everyone else to do too. See what God wants to do through you!


So, right now we have a couple of prayer requests. We're trying to see if it's God's will that Compassion has a presence at the Manitou Lake Gospel Jamboree this weekend, and doors are certainly opening, but we there are a few obstacles yet to overcome. Please pray that the organizers hearts will be softened towards Compassion!


And also, beautiful little Mukandayambaje does not yet have a sponsor and we have to return her file at the end of the month which can cause further delays in sponsorship. We have someone praying about taking her right now, so we would ask for others to pray too, so that if Mukandayambaje is meant to be hers, that she will know it.

MUKANDAYAMBAJE HAS BEEN SPONSORED! What an incredible blessing. Whew!

Eight kids sponsored at the North East Christian Fellowship!

We are so thrilled that Leul and Addis from Ethiopia, Vesithra from India, Solomon from Kenya and little Antonio from Mexico have wonderful new sponsor families! The congregation had just returned from a mission to Mexico, and it was awesome to hear about their experiences. We were so moved to learn about the cardboard church they visited where Sunday worship was led by an 11-year-old blind boy who was able to play the drums by feel. Our God is so awesome, and I know that church family will be blessed beyond measure -- if not here then in the mansion prepared just for them in heaven.

And now, we are waiting for 11 the profiles and photos of 11 more children to arrive in time for our presentation Mother's Day weekend at the Park Avenue Bible Church in Melfort. We are so grateful they are having us. We'll keep you posted!
