Shawn and I are huge supporters of Compassion Int’l. Two years ago this past Saturday we started sponsoring Nikita. She has touched our lives in ways we never could imagine.
For the last several months we’d discussed sponsoring another child. We fully believe that we are called to care for the poor, and want to be obedient to God’s calling.
We decided a few weeks ago that we wanted to sponsor an older child through the term of their time with Compassion. Older children are less likely to be sponsored.

Since April 30th is the anniversary of when we started sponsoring with Compassion we decided to make that our consistent sponsorship date. We missed that date by one day due to a busy day Saturday. We sat down last night and sponsored this lovely young lady, Delinah. She is 19, and lives in Kenya – southeast of the Ugandan border.
We are thankful that God has brought her into our lives. And for the few short years we are able to sponsor her I pray that we can be a blessing to her as she is to us.
