Happy Birthday

Today is Hripsime's 6th birthday! Who's Hripsime? She's the little girl we are sponsoring from Armenia through World Vision. Growing up I always had birthday parties with plenty of presents and friends and family to celebrate with. Today I'm praying Hripsime has the same. 


Please consider sponsoring a child through World Vision (or Compassion International, however I'm not very familiar with them) and give a child who has nothing, hope and a future.


Jeremiah 29:11 (New International Version) 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.


With your monthly donation you are providing that child with an education, medical help, food and clean water, and a knowing that someone far away loves her and cares about her. 

James 1:27 (New International Version) 27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

Jeremiah 49:11 Leave your orphans; I will protect their lives. Your widows too can trust in me.

For those of us who are believers we have God's amazing love living inside us which means we have the capacity to love a great deal and to care about those that God cares about. There is such joy in helping a child receive the things that we receive in the U.S. without a second thought. You will forever change a child's life, their families life and the community.
