If you have received the love and grace of Jesus Christ, you know what a gift like that feels like. Why not share that love and grace with a child in need, through sponsorship?
“Food for the Hungry offers a connecting point for individuals, families and churches to reach a specific child in need through monthly child sponsorship. When God provides for someone, they in turn can help reach a hurting child.”
–Bill Graening, director of Alive Festival.
Children in Sololo, Kenya sing praises to God just after receiving new school uniforms through child sponsorship. (March 2008)
Your sponsorship of a child in Sololo, Kenya, will help meet these specific needs:
Thetruth of the Gospel is needed to overcome some cultural practices that are harmful to children in Sololo (especially girls) and to present the way to the one true God.
Pastor training and church construction are needed to help new Christians plant deep roots in Christ.
School buildings, supplies and teacher training are needed to develop the minds of the children and to provide them a way out of poverty.
Clean-water catchments and pit toilets are needed to help spread good hygiene, not disease.
Regular medical care is needed to address and solve physical ailments.
Nutritious food provided once a day through child sponsorship often is a child’s only daily meal.
THEN
At Alive ’07, more than 220 individuals, youth groups and families answered God’s call to care for those in need by sponsoring a child in Sololo, Kenya. Thank you!!
NOW
These sponsors can say they have played an integral part in the surge of hope in Sololo. Since last year’s festival, Sololo has experienced growth and prosperity that could only come from God. Unparalleled change is taking place in education, church development, physical health and the reduction of harmful traditional practices, and the children reap the rewards.
“Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise!”
Psalm 106:47
Still, hundreds more children in Sololo wait anxiously for a loving person to sponsor them. This year, we are looking for at least 300 children to be sponsored by Alive fans.
YOU can say you have helped make poverty history in Sololo. Sponsor a child now!
“Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat upon them, nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; He will lead them to springs of living water.
“And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
Rev. 7:16-17
