I'd like to share something dear to my heart...children living in abject poverty. Children who feel they've done something wrong to deserve to live in slums or garbage dumps. Here I am holding a little Haitian girl. She lives in Redeption Village in Dominican Republic, a place for displaced Haitians run by New Missions. I've never felt closer to the heart of God, to what really matters in life. My husband and four grown kids have been involved in poverty ministry for over fifteen years. We believe we're saving lives through child sponsorship. Won't you join us?


There are two organizations we recommend. Compassion International deals with children all over the globe.  New Missions is tackling extreme poverty (what is now called Fifth World poverty too poor to be called Third World) in Haiti and Dominican Republic. You can find  these organizations at:
www.compassion.com and  www.newmissions.org
