Two Letters

Hey everyone! We are excited and happy to have recieved 2 letters from our sponsored child Shaba from India this week.I just got the second one out of the mailbox just about thirty minutes ago.I am smiling from ear to ear.It is great to hear that her and her family are doing well. She goes to school and has a pet goat. She is very good at drawing.
We are very blessed to be a sponsor for her.This has truly been a positive experience thus far.A eye opener and life changing toward so many things. We can't do everything but we can do something,I am so glad we as a family looked into our hearts to find how we could make a difference.I asked god to show us how we could make a difference and then we discovered Children International. I seen her picture and then I looked thru a little more.Something just drew me back to her picture,and it was like "You need to sponser her".So I made the decision,no doubts,and here we are in the sponsorhip program changing a life for the better. It is also changing our life for the better.I am so looking forward to meeting our sponsored child and her family,along with getting our precious "Maiya".I cannot imagine the feeling.
Congrats to the Werre family and all the others who will be leaving soon to get their children,best wishes and all things are possible with God. Until more news,Happy Day!!

It's so hard knowing that there are millions of children who need help, and I can't help them all -- I'm glad your family chose to reach out to one of them.

Sponsorship is great - we have enjoyed sponsoring our little girl for about 3 years now. Thanks for reminding us how important it is.
