150 New Smiles

Children welcome us to the project.
 Thanks for sharing my little journey to Colombia the last five days.  On Saturday when visited one last Compassion project.  One-hundred fifty children just got a chance to join this project which just started two weeks ago.  However, the church has been planning and ready for these kids for around a year.

Everywhere we went we were surrounded by smiles.  They were smiles of kids who were simply having fun being kids.  Too many kids here in Colombia and around the world don't get to be kids.

A little girl spreads some sunshine.


But people like you are changing that.  There are so many kids in the world that need help that it can seem overwhelming.  But each child is special.  And each child has a story to tell.  It's a story that's still being written.  Coming up on WGTS 91.9 on September 18th and 19th you'll have a chance to make the difference for one child.  Our broadcast team will be sharing with the WGTS 91.9 family ways that you can develop a relationship with a beautiful child in Colombia.  I'll be sharing more of what I've seen and heard here in hopes that it will inspire you to bring hope -perhaps in DC or another corner of the world.

Little girls everywhere like to play dress-up.


Okay, okay, I'm ticklish!
