A heart with Compassion ~ Dauna Papakirykos



Yesterday we had an amazing afternoon loving on the compassion children that our church sponsors.  The rest of the compassion were there too for us to spend time with. This is the community that we have poured our church family's resources into.  This was a completely overwhelmingly emotional day for many of us (especially the mammas in the group).

We were able to give gifts to many of these children and they expressed how excited they have been for this day and how much they appreciated the sacrifices that we have made for their lives.  Compassion had translators for each child that our church sponsors to communicate with us.  Even more overwhelming were the mothers that came with the children thanking us for caring about their children's futures.   They all also were very excited to take pictures with Pastor Bob and his wife and they were honoured for the privilege. 

Many of us were unsure if we would see our children, but most of them made it (some late because of car problems).  The children who couldn't make it, Compassion has made a commitment to deliver the gifts you sent to them.

Here are many of our children and your children. You and I may not be changing the world, but we are certainly changing their world.
