Would you agree with this statement? “Christian mothers who care deeply about their children also care deeply about helping other children in need.” I’m not surprised that the MOPS [Mothers of Preschoolers] organization has partnered with Compassion International in many ways, because it’s a perfect fit. Mothers that attend MOPS are usually very eager to help children in need; they just don’t know which company they can trust. I’m here to say that I trust Compassion International, and I’ll tell you why.
When our children were small, I felt the desire to help a child in poverty as well, but didn’t know which company I could trust. I prayed about it for months. Then one day I was out for lunch with a missionary friend (from Haiti) on furlough. She was talking about a recent hurricane, and I asked what happened to the poor in these situations. She said, without a blink, “Well, of course, the children that were in Compassion didn’t miss a single meal.” I quickly asked if she was talking about Compassion International (she was). She then told me all about the organization from her perspective as a Missionary Doctor — about its integrity, effectiveness and responsibility. In fact, several of the nurses in her clinic were formerly sponsored children! [Years later, I found out that Dr. Marilyn is a personal friend of Compassion’s President, Dr. Wess Stafford]. I immediately called Compassion to sponsor a child in Haiti; I was so pleased to finally have a clear answer from the Lord.
I believe that if caring mothers realize that they can trust this company, and really change the life of a child in need, they will sponsor children, just as the ones below did.
