CONNECT WITH YOUR CHILD

Thank you for giving your sponsored child a better future! Your encouragement, love, and support will change his or her life. And as you connect with your child and build a special relationship, you will be filled with joy! 

Here are some ways you can make the most of your sponsorship: 

PRAY

Your faithful prayers make such a difference! Ask God to protect your child, bless him or her with good health, fill your child with hope, draw your child into a loving relationship with Him, and meet his or her needs like only He can. Also, pray that God directs your child’s steps and helps your child fulfill God’s plans for his or her life.

WRITE

Kids love to hear from their sponsors! Your words will encourage and delight your child. Please take a minute to send a message and let your child know that God cares about him or her — and so do you. You can also exchange prayer requests and remind your child that all things are possible with God. For more writing ideas and instructions, check out these FAQs.
